I am 68 years old, and disabled, and in poor health, due to a major surgery this past July, 2009.

Some time ago, I co-signed for a student loan, for my son, and they, Sallie Mae, are unable to reach him on the phone, and he is unable to make payments now, due to some problems he is now having, so they, Sallie Mae, now call me, several times a day, even on Sunday, and after I talk with them, and tell them, I also, am unable to make the payments, due to being on a fixed income, and do not have the funds, still I get another call, sometimes soon after the last one.

I need help to stop the calls, that are very upsetting to me, and there is nothing I can do now, to help with the payments.

What can I do to stop this action?

Sue your son!

AUTHOR: Stacey - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, February 23, 2010

He is supposed to be making payments for HIS education, not you!! If he has problems he can apply for a deferment or a hardship but the interest will still accrue.

Tell him to stop running away from his responsibilities and do something about it - this is not your debt but since you are the co-signer it has become yours

Student loan debt is a totally unique breed of debt...they can basically do whatever they want. I guess the only real thing you can do is change your phone number....to a private or unlisted number. Another option is to use prepaid cell phones as your primary number and change that every 6 months or so....

Not much you can do!

Unfortunately the co-signer(s) are as equally responsible for the loan as the student borrower. Under the law they have every right to contact you and your son for a resolution to the problem of not receiving payments. Your only course of action is to file a "Cease and desist" letter advising them to contact you by mail only. This will stop the repeated phone calls, but the not the responsibility of repaying the loan.
