Hello everyone. It has been over a year since I have heard from a collection agency over my RBC student loan. I had offered to pay them them them but they wanted all or nothing no reasonable amounts that I could afford. So I left it alone and apparently they did to. Well now today I got a call from a Travis at I believe NCO in Edmonton, I live in Saskatchewan. He said he wanted like $5000 by the end of today. I told him I was busy and to try calling me tomorrow. I haven't been in school since 1997 and if the Royal Bank hadn't screwed up in the first place I wouldn't be in this mess. What are my options here?

Every collector in Canada wants $5000.00 by the end of the day. That is how they make a living, and if you can't support their living, they tend behave more aggressively. This is why you hear of all the horror stories where the root is the third-party collection industry.

How much do you owe in total?

He said it was between $5000 and $6000, I can't remember the exact number. I am supposed to call him back today and I don't want to because I hate dealing with these people but I know they will constantly phone. If I had lots of money and could pay it off tomorrow I would.
