With loan interest currently at 1.25%?  As much chance as the beatification of Donald T!  |

Wow what a fuss! The loan from one of my years was sold on a few years after I left. Same interest rate, same terms. It made no different to me whatsoever.

The fuss is in part because the government did change the terms of some more recent loans. They increased the rate of deduction from pay so less would be written off at the end of the loan term. That increase in expected repayments has increased the value of those loans for a prospective buyer and the price the government will get, with the former students paying.
