Can I haggle with a loan company?

[Littlefrenchmummy]

I borrowed from a student loan company £22,500 with a 10% interest which means I now owe them £32,000 with £700 a month repayment.

I have now finished my degree and just came into a bit of money so phoned to see if an early repayment was possible. They said yes and if I paid this month I would only owe them £27,000.
I can only afford £25,000.

can I haggle with them?
If so how?

Thanks a lot for your help and advice !

If you've signed an agreement the no probably not, however - it might be worth seeing if you can get a low rate loan for the difference, paying off the 10% one and having a small low rate one to pay back.
You can pay the 25k and then still pay the original comapny the remainder in your payments but that's a high rate on 2k.

I forgot to say I have already paid back approximately £5,000.

Thanks your reply Q. its a good suggestion I will look into it!

Has anyone else tried to haggle by any chance?

Thanks !
