<p>I would appreciate if someone has by chance the phone number of my rich uncle student loans. I’ve been looking for it but with no luck. My daughter and I are trying to see if they can make some sort of payment arrangements.</p>

<p>Thought it was a joke…No idea it actually existed. Don’t call the 800 number. It was a joke.</p>

<p>Aw MD_Mom, I’d already given you credit for being the FIRST to note that any hope of getting a loan from MyRichUncle was pure fantasy!</p>

<p>Last I heard, they were filing for bankruptcy.</p>

<p>"The company known as My Rich Uncle, a student-loan business that stopped originating loans in September 2008 because of liquidity problems, listed four times as many liabilities as assets in its Chapter 7 petition, filed Friday in New York City.</p>

<p>Weighed down by debt, MRU Holdings Inc. voluntarily plunged itself into liquidation proceedings. The company opted for the Chapter 7 filing instead of a Chapter 11 filing, which enables companies to reorganize while receiving protection from creditors…"</p>

<p>I thought someone was going to ask people’s opinions of asking a rich uncle to help pay for college. Shows you what I know!</p>

<p>vengreek - It sounds like you already have a loan from them and need contact info. Your best bet will probably be with the the folks who are servicing the loan. Someone is collecting payments for the creditors. The only other source I can think of is the firm handling the bankruptcy.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>
