Student Loans Company Overpayment help!! Please?

Hi there, I am 21 and used to be a student, I have this £1590 debt that the Student Loans Company want me to pay them back now. Apparently they 'overpaid' me what happened is i dropped out of college and about a month later i got my usual installment i thought sweet i wont have to pay this back until i earn over £15000 a year.
So about a month later i got this letter demanding the £1590 back and I cant afford to pay em 90 a month, they wont let me go any lower they are right !!!!!!s.

The debt consolidation people cant deal with the SLC so im not sure what to do. I also owe around 1500 to credit cards. This thing is sitting on me and I just cant see a way out at the moment. I was thinking to hell with the SLC i wont pay em a penny another thought was toi change my name and move out, pay the cards in my old name and screw the SLC. I got so depressed about it once my friend fae had to pull me from a bridge.
any ideas? help? thanks

    I think you might be best off posting this is the Debt Free Wanabee section, they are really experienced with dealing with this sort of thing and will be able to give you some good advice.
