The debt reduction planner keeps claiming my minimum payment is something other than it is. It will not let me correct the error

    From your debt 1.jpg, I see a principal amount of $23,969.52.  If I divide that amount by 60 (12 payments a year for 5 years), I come up with a monthly payment of $399.492.
    SO, in that same graphic, why is your payment shown as $254.35?
    And, if you've paying $145 and change less than $399 ... that's why your remaining payments would be higher, in order to meet the payoff date.
    YET, $4069.52 divided by the remaining 16 payment IS $254.35. SD, I suspect a loan setup error someplace.

    I have been paying extra on my payments since day 1 so I dont know why it says that. I'll see if I can review the original loan settings and figure out why it changed that way. I never had a problem before but then again I dont recall ever being denied the ability to change my minimum payment in the debt reduction before.

    Can you tale a snapshot of one of the actual payment transactions (in your checking account), specifically including the SPLIT lines?

    Well I had Quicken recalculate payment on the Loan account. It correctly set it as $399.49. Now the debt reduction thing has changed my monthly to $734 for a minimum :s
