Does anyone know about "student loans" and has everyone paid theirs (Grad 11 years ago whoops!)

Well yes I graduated over 11 years ago and with one thing or another ie travel/work/buying house/kiddies etc etc have never got around to paying it and it seems silly as the current amount that you have to earn over is around £2200.

I was told it was repaid at age 40 if you never earned that amount now I am told it is 65.....anyone know about this..thanks!!!

Yes you don't have to pay it back if you get to age 50!
I graduated in 1997 and can't imagine I will ever earn anywhere near the threshold. I think the threshold is lower for loans taken out more recently. I haven't paid any and keep deferring it. I needed mine to pay my rent. I hope not to pay it back at all.
