Wow, great for me! Except that I merely paid the debt with my credit card since, like most other veterans, I am living off the Ch.33 BAH and couldn't afford it to be cut. Which also means I now have to pay an extra finance charge, and interest, for charging the debt to my credit card. I'm actually lucky that I had that much room on my credit card to take on...
I still think the VA should have reduced my debt by $1200. Since they don't plan on paying me the $100 per month x 12 months initial pay-in to the MGIB until AFTER I complete my degree with the Post-9/11 GI Bill, the least they could have done is said they won't pay me at all, but reduced my debt.
Also, check out the dating on these papers, received in chronological order...

Rather than let them reduce your money, make an agreement with them that is a much lesser amount.
I remember paying off the hospital bill from our daughters birth at ten dollars a month.
I'll let anybody put money into my account, within reason, but nobody withdraws from my account but me. Hell, the newspaper double billed me when I fell for the automatic payment gambit once.
"The nation is likely to work on a solution to this honorably and in good faith."
Not holding out a lot of hope in that regard. Rather, I expect to hear talk about working on a solution. But as a wise man once told me, it's not what a wo/man says that counts, it's what s/he DOES that matters.
