Federal Loan Consolidation

I'm about to shoot these motherfrickers.

They screwed up consolidating my loans so one didn't get lumped in. I started the process back in March 2012 and the considation went though in June/July. Finally, in October/November, they paid off Sallie Mae after 3 attempts at doing so, but guess what? THEY LOST THE LOAN. So now, there is a loan floating around in the nether with no servicer and they can't find it. I got them to finally figure out that they lost it in December. Since of course, they figured I was the one who messed up. They tell me wait a month and call back (I have all the companies on the conference call). My future servicer says they've heard the government has botched a bunch of these and it takes SIX MONTHS to fix.

So if you believe in government, go frick yourself.
