7652833176

We moved over a year ago to TX but haven't updated our cell numbers, but they should have our correct address that reflects Texas versus NV. Just got a phone call at 10:47 for a loan that we have in deferment, seeing how BOTH of us are full time students. I'm happy none of my loans never came from Sallie Mae, but I regret that my husbands have. Each person that I have spoken to are rude. I have told them that the loans are in deferment, or that they are calling way too late, and they just hang up. I don't need to take down a number... we've already contacted Sallie Mae. They claim to be Sallie Mae but cannot tell you anything about your account. Makes me question if this is legit or some scam?

We have received five calls in about two weeks at our business number, at all times of the day and evening ... recorded message is along the lines of "Please hold for the next representative, it is important that we talk with you." This message is repeated at about 20 second intervals ad nauseum. At first I just hung up -- I do not participate in computer generated calls. Then I just left the phone off the hook and let them pay for the minutes. But that tied up my line. Tonight I waited over four minutes hoping to give someone a piece of my mind. Husband intervened with "letting someone else's computer run your life?" So Googled "MCC" as displayed on the caller ID, and finally this phone number.

Who are these people and how do I get them to stop sending automated calls to my business phone?

How to Protect Yourself: Debt Collections
Source: The FLORIDA Attorney General's Office

A "debt collector" is someone who regularly tries to collect debts owed to others. A debt collector may contact you if you are behind in your payments to a creditor on a personal, family or household debt, or if an error has been made in your account.

A debt collector may contact you in person, or by mail, email, telephone, telegram or fax. However, a collector may not communicate with you or your family with such frequency as can reasonably considered harassing. A debt collector may not contact you at work if the collector knows your employer does not disapprove, nor may a collector contact you at unreasonable times or places, such as before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m., unless you agree.

A debt collector is required to send you a written notice within five days after you are first contacted, telling you the amount of money you owe. The notice must also specify the name of the creditor to whom you owe the money and what action you should take if you believe you do not owe the money.

You may stop a collector from contacting you by writing a letter to the agency telling them to stop. Once the agency receives your letter, they may not contact you again except to say there will be no further contact, or to notify you if the debt collector or the creditor intends to take some specific action.

If you do not believe you owe the debt, you may write to the collection agency within 30 days after you are first contacted, saying you don't owe the money. The agency may not contact you after that unless you are sent proof of the debt, such as a copy of the bill.

A debt collector may not harass or abuse anyone. For instance, a collector may not use threats of violence against the person, property or reputation; use obscene or profane language; advertise the debt; or repeatedly or continuously make telephone calls with the intent to harass or abuse the person at the called number. In addition, debt collectors are required to accurately disclose their identities to the person at the called number.

A debt collector may not use false statements, such as falsely implying that they are attorneys, that you have committed a crime, or that they operate or work for a credit bureau or misrepresenting the amount of your debt, the involvement of an attorney in collecting a debt, or indicating that papers sent to you are legal forms when they are not. Debt collectors may not tell you that you will be arrested if you do not pay; that they will seize, garnish, attach, or sell your property or wages unless the collection agency or creditor intends to do so and has a legal right to do so; or that a lawsuit will be filed against you, when they have no legal right to file or do not intend to file such a suit.

Complaints about collections agencies may be filed either with the Attorney General's Office or with the Federal Trade Commission, Correspondence Branch, Washington, D.C. 20580. You also may file a lawsuit against the collection agency for violating state and/or federal law. If you prevail, you may be awarded your actual damages, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs.

1 hr. 6 minutes after previous call ... here they call again. 4 rings, then silence. I did not answer.

If you call me don't put me on hold and then expect me to wait for you to come on the line. I will hang-up every time.

My daughter DOES have a student loan through Sallie Mae, and my dh (her step-father) is a co-signer of the loan. But...she hasn't graduated yet, and the loan is supposed to be deferred for 6 months after her graduation date.

Received a call from this number after making up mt past due amount of $40.66 today.....it told me to hold?!!?!

"Hello, please hold for the first available representative. It's important that we speak with you. We'll be with you shortly. Thank you."

and that has been playing on a loop with a 9 sec. pause in between for the past 15 mins...

EDIT: After 16 mins it randomly hung up....

"private number" on caller ID, no answer when I answered the phone, line seemed to be dead.

They have been calling me the past 2 days. I called 765-283-3176 back this morning and they wanted my ss#......

1) they called me at a number I have never given them
2) I don't owe them any money, nor have I borrowed any money from them.
3) I told the guy I was gonna call the number on the sallie mae website and he said I would get nowhere
4) I called the number on the sallie mae website and gave them the above mentioned phone number and they said the number has nothing to do with their company

FRAUD!!!!!!!!

no answer

These guys are a pain in the butt. My son owes for his student loan and is running two weeks behind right now and they start the minute he is late and don't give up till he makes a payment. They are wasting they're time! He isn't going to pay untill he gets paid anyway amd within a few months he'll be back in sink anyway so why don't they just knock it off!! We're NEVER going to answer anyway!

Sallie Mae is about STUDENT LOAN.  Most like they are calling regarding past due student loan.  I hope they have been nice, because they are trying to help the students out by paying back the government backed loans.

I have been receiving several calls from this number even on my cell phone or at home in regards to a debit that has been sold with Sallie Mae

I have reported these jokers to the Federal Trade Commission!  They're bogus!  They called here and wouldn't identify themselves nor would they name a specific person they wanted to speak with. That's not a call from a real collection agency!  DO NOT Give out personal info, including your name, address, or any numbers to these scam artists!

They repeatedly call demanding information and try to say I have defaulted when I have never even been late on payments. Sallie Mae has no records of contacting me and verify that my account is in great standing.  These people are terrible, hateful scammers trying to trick innocent, trusting people out of their money. Never give them ANY information.

These Sallie Mae people won't leave me alone. They keep asking for a Deanne Dole and there is no such person here.

765 283 3176 is a big time scam
Sallie Mae doesn't have a 765 number
they have 888 numbers. They called me about my loans
and didn't even know if I was a borrower or co-signer.
I started talking to them about it and they hung up the phone.
SCAM all the way

This is ridiculous!! These morons call so many times each day.  Listen, if you tell them you don't have money at 10:00 am why would they call back at 11:30, 1:00, 2:45 and 8:15 asking for money?  Oh yes, please, let me get my sack of money out that just appeared a few minutes ago.  I don't have any other bills to pay and since I have so much money, I'm thinking I won't pay Sallie Mae.  Whatever.

They called me at 6:30am on Friday the 22nd of May. Called again at 10:27am, on my Caller ID. They won't leave a message, they hang up, how RUDE! unbusinesslike behavior, needs counseling, ha, ha. idots!!!, they an go to he--!!!
