Yes. They call me at least 4 times a day... FROM DIFFERENT NUMBERS.
I've explained to them that I have graduated, but the economy is so bad right now I can't find a job. They offer me a forbearance for a $100 fee... and I'm like, "Seriously sir? What kind of sense does that make? I know you don't make the rules, but it's idiotic that you would ask me to pay a $100 fee when I can't afford food OR those $150 loan payments."

OH. And dear goodness... if you want to talk to me, STOP with the automated messages when I pick up the phone. If you want to talk to me, then, dangit, talk to me.

Co-signer on daughter's loan who doesn't graduate until 2011.  We've informed them of this repeatedly.  Provided appropriate documents.  Were told we have to pay on the load over the summer when she's not taking classes (!!!) Never heard of such a thing. Deferred should be deferred, but tire of fighting the issue, we paid for the summer months and STILL getting multiple daily phone calls, home, work, cell...  Called them and said "We paid!  Stop calling!"  We are told, "yep, we see here in our records that you paid" ... it takes some time for the payment to show up in the system that generates the phone calls" !!!  Funny... it didn't take any time for the automated system to generate the phone calls -- starting the day classes ended in May!

It's Sallie Mae and they will call you day after day after day if your payment goes over 30 days late. After 5 such calls with automated messages left which stated agents had ways "to help" me in making payments.  I went against my better judgment and called them back.  First they verified it was me and my address followed with your account is past due, how would you like to pay?  I told the person that I was calling because I lost my job and was not able to pay.  

The agent then tells me how much my account is past due and I said ...ok.  She then goes so how do you want to pay that by check or credit card? So again I tell her that I'm unemployed and I cannot make the payment.  The agent then asks why not since my payments are so low so I remind her yet again ...no job and no money.  She then asks if I'm collecting unemployment and when I say no to that she asks if I have a co-signer and quickly goes yes you do can you get them to pay?  I tell her that the co-signer was my Mom who passed away a few years ago.  Not missing a beat she follows up asking, well is there someone else who you can get to pay it?  Again I say no.  She seemed deflated after that and pretty much just said ...ok thanks for calling.

Wow... whole lot of help that was Sallie Mae.  I should have just followed my first thought to not bother calling back.  They don't care that you've lost your job, don't care that your co-signer has been dead for years (which they'd know by the way since they no longer send mailings to the house my Mom used to live in). No, all they care about is the money and when they're going to get it.  I would've expected better from a company that I've made payments to on time for the past 4 years! I would've expected some mention of putting my account into deferment or forbearance but no dice. They could care less about helping anyone but themselves so I'll just go back to not responding to their calls and when I can pay again I will.

I, too am being harrassed everyday from 765-283-3020 and 866-493-6512.  I am also looking for a job and cannot pay my payments.  They said they could put me into forbearance if I pay 2 or 2 payments consecutively.  But then it would for 2 months only.  How does that help a person with no job.  They are eating away at my cell phone min. which is the only phone we have.  Lets all send a letter to the states attorney with copies to everyone we can thing of.  Hey! (lightbulb)...Lets also start sending them letters everyday bombarding their mail system!
