A thinly disguised telemarketing call from "Sally Mayfield" to inform everybody of Federal legislation that can reduce or eliminate student loan debt. Of course they'll want to charge a hefty fee to your credit card for a service you can just as easily do yourself.
Their "shotgun" approach to making mass phone calls, hoping to find a few people who owe student loans, and their total disregard of the Do Not Call list certainly tells us a lot about their business ethic, doesn't it?
Here is a transcript of the call:
[female voice] "This is Sally Mayfield. According to the William D. Ford Federal Loan Act, U.S. Department of Education Code 2009A, your federal student loans may be eligible for new programs designed to lower or eliminate your student loan payments. You may be eligible to lower your payments by more than 90% and may qualify for loan forgiveness. Please press [1] to lower your student loan payments. If you no longer need help or wish to be removed from our phone list, then please press [2]. Please choose your option now. Press [1] now for loan forgiveness."

Glad I checked that number. I almost picked-up since I used to have a very good client in Farmington, CT. But when
no message followed, I punched-in on 800notes. Just another - lower your card rates, etc. All junk. These guys use every trick in the books to get you to pick-up the phone.
