              I am the cosigner on a loan held by AES, and they have been a nightmare to work with. After more than 2 years, I have been unable to create an online account. Have faced myriad excuses but I still can’t access an online statement or pay online. Mail statements are also really unreliable. Since I can’t consistently access my account, it’s easy to fall behind on payment or miss due dates. If you have a choice DO NOT USE aes.
