Need help with Nelnet login problems?

Hi guys,

I’ve been attempting to log into Nelnet for about a month now, but I’ve forgotten my username. Every time I attempt to reset it, I encounter the following error message:

“Sorry, there’s been a problem. The issue has been logged and reported to our technical team. First, try refreshing your browser and attempting to log in again. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, please log out of your account and then log back in. You can also visit Nelnet.com in a new tab to try logging in again. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience.”

I’m feeling overwhelmed trying to resolve this issue, especially since I’ve saved money specifically to make a payment.

Have you tried clearing your browser cache or using a different browser? Sometimes that can help resolve these types of technical glitches. If the problem persists, reaching out to Nelnet’s customer support directly could provide more specific assistance.

My nelnet account has not allowed me to log in for several days. I want to confirm that auto draft was successfully transferred from my Great Lakes account because I’ve read mixed reviews about it here. In addition to all the problems encountered when attempting to convert from IDR to SAVE, how can you allow your entire website to crash the week when loans are expected to receive their first payment due? Everything about this had been insane.

If I am having trouble logging into my Nelnet account, there are several steps I can take to resolve the issue. First, I should check if Nelnet’s system is experiencing any outages by visiting websites like DownDetector, which tracks service status. If there are no reported outages, I can try resetting my credentials by using the “Forgot Username” or “Forgot Password” options on the Nelnet login page. It’s also helpful to clear my browser cache and cookies, as this often resolves login issues. If I still can’t access my account after these steps, I should consider reaching out to Nelnet’s customer support for further assistance. They can help me troubleshoot any specific problems related to my account.
