888-629-0189

Called twice within an hour, no message either time.

constant calls

It's Sallie Mae

Yes Sallie Mae has now decided to call me every day, at least 3x a day. I suspect this is another one of their numbers.
Also, 765-283-3176 and 888-272-5543.

I just talked and asked to be trasfered to extension 546. They asked for my account number or SSN, prior to transfer me.

This should be a scam !!!  

Be very carefull

shows up on caller ID as "800 Service"

There are three certainties in my life:

1. Death

2. Taxes

3. A call from this number EVERY DAY

Well im happy to hear its not just me being called by the 765-283-3176.  Since the first call two days ago i have successfully missed 13 of these calls. The automated voice states on my vmail that i should wait to get transferred to someone and then its says its important that they talk to me.

1) Never heard of Sallie Mae
2) There is no way the loan office has my cell phone number
3) My parents deal with it so they have no reason to call me

1+2+3=Stop calling me you [***]

Yes!  This is Sallie Mae.  They call all day and night; even after they have talked with my son who is a college graduate that can't find a job!  They have three different numbers that call my home all day and night (Sunday - Saturday) until 9:00 pm.  Apparently, these idiots don't talk to each other.  He has talked to these "people" and told them that he is actively looking for a job and that he fully intends to pay he school loans when he gets a job. One day, he talked to them and they called two times two hours later.  All on the same day!  Here are the two others numbers that they use:   765-283-3176 and 866-215-1261.  It's sickening.  One day they called seven times.  They should not be allowed to harrass people like this.

It's Sallie Mae alright. Its funny though, I always pay on time, but yet they always call me right after I pay, I dont know why, I never answer. All I care about is that I pay and the payment is posted a day later. So legally they have nothing to talk to me about. Although, my luck would be that they were trying to contact me to tell me I never have to pay again because a rich benefactor wants to pay my loans off, and I am ignoring them. HAHA that would be my luck.

calling me constantly. I finally answered. The message said if I was so and so please press 0. I did. Someone came on and I told them that I never went to college and had no loans. (True). She said that they must have the wrong number. Ya think. The only Mae I know is Ellie Mae from the Beverly Hillbillies.

I got a voice message from 1-317-578-6000 asking me to call 1-888-629-0189 because I was listed as a cosigner for a student loan and they needed some information, I called and they managed to get my address and the last for digits of my ss number too late I reliaze this was a scam.  Now I am going crazy thinking what else they know and what else they will do next

I have kept a running tally of this, and as of Thursday, October 9, 2008, I have received at least 30 calls from Sallie Mae since Monday the 6th, and I'm sure I'll receive at least another 10 in the next day or so.

I understand I have a student loan debt that I need to repay, but I've constantly expressed to Sallie Mae my financial situation, and they insist I pay them or expect the phone calls to continue. They offered me a forbearance, in exchange for paying a $100 fee. Ummm...the point of a forbearance is to delay the process of paying a loan that you're in over your head on. If I had the money to pay the fee, I might as well pay my bill!

This is just harassment

anyone wanna join in on a class action against these guys?

Yes, I'd love to.

one question:

will any of these counter-actions actually do anything to help out the loans we need to repay, or the interest that is adding up daily? i'm considering giving them a taste of their own medicine, and calling them 10 times a day asking for help and forbearances and reduced pmt plans etc.

Yep.  SLM Corporation, aka "Sallie Mae."  For those of you who don't know, their CEO Albert L Lord has his own private $30 MILLION golf course in Maryland named Anne Arundel Manor

Ya my husband has been harrassed constantly and also they've (Sallie Mae) has been taking money out of his bank without his consent. So now were a negative in the whole because of them. This company shouldn't even be allowed to be out there. But yes we constantly get calls from them after 5 months of actually talking to a real person saying we don't have jobs and can't pay what they ask they still harrase him. This shouldn't even be allowed. Also i have some more numbers to add that they use.

765-238-3176
866-517-3063
866-215-1261

Sallie mae!  Other numbers
765 283-3176
877 770 4157

They call all day from 8am-8pm

I am the signer of a student loan for my daughter who doesn't graduate until May 2009.  In Jan. 2009 I started receiving calls at work, home and on my cell from numbers described on this board.  I've spoken with 7 or 8 different people and sent via mail and faxed proof of her graduation date and yet these people are still calling me 3 or 4 times a day every day on each of my numbers.  This is plain and simple harrassement.  I have sent a letter to my state Attorney General.
