Pre-commissioning Loan USAA

You are going to enjoy PSD...they are the pinnacle of well informed efficiency...
When I got my final select letter or whatever it was called, I called and asked USAA what they needed for the loan. They said they needed my expected commissioning date, which I told them was not on my letter. They told me that I needed to get my recruiter to fax them an expected commissioning date on NRD letterhead. I had my loan in my checking acount within a couple days. I don't see what the huge problem is. If any other company was willing to give you an unbelievable deal on one of their products would you be angry about a few hoops you had to jump through to get it? You aren't entitled to it so whats the issue?
And I agree, you are going to have big issues with PSD if you think USAA is a pain to deal with. There were guys that came down to Pensacola from OCS with me that were still getting $750 pay checks for a while until PSD could get it fixed... about a month or two later...

I am not going to be attacked at or argued with about what I am doing wrong when I am merely holding a standard of accountability. I never said the word "Entitlement". DO NOT PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH. Thank you.
However, I will not be a part of the few who do nothing. I like to get things completed and if there is a problem getting it completed I like to fix the problem. From what I have gone through with USAA and having talked to several of thier represenatives, I have now "HELPED" several people within thier company to become more informed. My footwork will make it easier for people in the future. I will not be a part of the "few who do nothing" as you guys seem to be happy with.
I am done with this, and you are welcome.

Wow. How did the military survive without you for so long? How did countless thousands manage to get their loans prior to comissioning in the past? They must have floundered and flapped in the breeze, because Thunderkiss wasn't around yet.
You probably drew the short stick with the representative you talked to. You did not save the world. Enjoy OCS.

I may be mistaken but I believe you can put your loans on hold (deferment or forbearance) while you are serving. The interest will still accrue. I'd look at your other debt IF you can put your loans on hold. If you need to $ to cover other expenses / responsibilities, use it for that. Like it was said earlier, the interest is tax deductible (not that it's a lot but every little bit helps).

Not just a loan--a loan he didn't get! "The human torch was denied a loan today..."

Just another frustrated observer.
CUBUFFS4134, check your math. If you commision on the 1st of March, November 1st is 120 days, not December 1st.
November, 30 days
December, 31 days
January, 31 days
February, 28 days
Total 120 days.
Not being a smart-ass, just pointing this out in-case it would make a difference in your applying for the loan.

Exactly what I'm doing. The loan is 25k at 2% fixed.
