Loan Repayment after retirement?

Huggy823

Please can someone help. I have made 6 phone calls to the student loan company, filled in 5 forms in 3 months and they still need more information?
I studied for a teaching PGCE in 2008 and received a student loan in order to complete the study.
I then started work as a teacher in 2009 and began automatic repayment of my student loan. I continued to make payments until 2017 when at age 55 I decided to retire.
I have savings that I collected prior to teaching and had these invested in a managed fund. This managed fund now gives me a tax free income every month.
I have now filled in 4 student income forms explaining that I am retired - they do not have a category retired living off savings - if you are not in receipt of a pension you are described as unemployed.
The student loan company now want a statement from my investment company to show that the funds I am receiving are mine and the total value of the funds I have saved.
I receive less than £1500 per month and the investments from which I draw my monthly income are tax free. I have never filled in a self evaluation tax form in my life?
Do I still have to make my student loan repayments?
I am going round in circles at the moment and losing the will.....:mad:

If you don't have the earnings you don't have to make payments, but you do need to prove the lack of earnings.
