General Revenue Corporation

Over 60% bill paid. On time $100 payments x3 months every week from auto withdraw from bank. I make $9 hr. Tried hard. Turned me in to collections. I came to them when I discovered debt that was 3 yrs old. Ruthless.

I've been dealing with this company for months at this point. The phone calls are very persistent. I've requested that they not call after 4:00PM CST because I work at 4:30 and will not be able to answer, as cell phones are not allowed on my work floor. Today I received not one, but three phone calls about (maybe?) 2 hours between each. I typically do not answer phone calls I don't have saved in my contacts. When/if they leave a voicemail it's usually 20-30 sec of background noise/air.

I came into contact with GRC because a loan I acquired from DeVry was sent to them. I was never informed that my debt was being sent to collections and when I called them to pay the $299 that I owed they told me I owed over $500. The extra was due to fees added because the debt was sent to collections (GRC). When I told her I was never even informed that the debt was being sent to them she proceeded to scold me about taking a few months to track down who my loan was sent to and how to contact them.

This is what you need to know. GRC is a legit collection company. They work for Colleges and Universities to collect both Private student loans and Perkins loans. So many people think they can call Navient, FedLoan, Great Lakes, Nelnet, Cornerstone, etc and get all the answers. The truth is that if you have a Perkins loan or a private student loan (especially one through your previous school). These loans do not get serviced by those big-name loan servicers. You have another servicer out there and you need to find out who it is. You should be able to access this for Perkins loans on the website www.studentloans.gov. If you have a private loan the only way to verify that will be calling the school or looking at your credit report.

The tactics employed by this organization are despicable. Called my ex-wife's brother-in-law, who I haven't seen in 10 years. Called the personal cell phone of a co-worker looking for information. Called me at my place of employment 8 times in 3 days, including 4 times in 4 hours on a single afternoon - after I wrote them twice and told them to never call my place of employment again. Rude, unprofessional, and deceptive in their practices.

I find this company to be very unprofessional. They stalk you on the internet and then reach out to any contacts you may have. They've reached out to my extended family and they've also reached out to the place where I volunteer. If this is legal, then why not take me to court? Don't reach out and contact people associates of mine. This is a personal issue and should not be shared with other people. Don't call me every day or multiple times per day. Take me to court instead. And when you garnish my wages, don't take 15% out - it really puts people in a bind when you take too much of their money.

This company has called me an average of once a day for the past month. They never leave a voicemail or if they do, it's 2 seconds of dead air. I answered once and listened to "hold music" for a minute before I hung up. Never spoke to an actual person or even heard a recorded message. I had to look online to find out that they're a student loan debt collector and learn the company name! My student loans are currently being paid and are up to date so I don't have a clue why they're calling me. I just want them to stop!

GRC called every living relative of mine in a single afternoon. Said something to the effect of, "He's in trouble and we need to contact him immediately." Left voicemails where no one answered. Multiple members contacted me in a confused panic. I called the number GRC left only to discover it's a debt collection agency calling about education loan which is currently in review with the FSA.

Trying to track down all family members for your own loan. Schools should’ve just told everyone the truth to stay at your parents and dont leave b/c you are not going to make it or pay it in full to our expectations. They will take your penny! That you dont have. And the young will harass us has beens for an extra 100k for a new house for themselves while you eat ramen noodles forever. The fight will continue forever, people love to fight. They’ll steal your spouse’s tax return that you live on to eat.

I've received a few calls from them in the last week. They leave a typical "attempt to collect a debt" message. I called back to find out what this was and they would give me NO information at all until I gave them a bunch of personal info. I hung up on them and looked them up online. They say on their website they work with student loans, but all my loans are up to date and managed through another company, Navient. I called Navient to ask if they were connected to GRC and they said NO. They said my loans are all in the clear and no one from Navient has been trying to reach me for anything??
