message: Hey, I received an email from ACS CEO, Lynn Blodget (company-wide email) saying that ACS got bought by Xerox. I SUCK at writing, think someone could write something better than "We got bought"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by D14852001 (talk • contribs)

message: They now are the sole contractor in the administering of all student Direct Loans that predate July 1, 2010. Four other private for-profit companies, mostly loan companies, administer newer DLs.  The student loan reform, while it was promoted by people as being a major change, puts all federal student loans under the control of private companies like this one.  While they no longer keep portions of interest and fees, there are no truly "direct" loans anymore without third-party servicer involvement.  People do not realize that the legislation was probably co-written by this industry, and while it reduces the per-account profits, massively increases the number of accounts these companies have and eliminates their competitors outside of this group of five. -Reticuli 64.93.132.79 (talk) 22:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

message: The company has been back in the headlines due to the failed implosion of the old headquarters building.  This probably needs to be addressed.  2600:1004:B168:AC72:F44C:A0F:D8C8:8A44 (talk) 11:43, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: It took the deconstruction company a few more days than initially expected to take down a solid concrete tower. I'm not entirely sure this information is in the scope of Wikipedia / not just a news story. What do you think? --Tec Tom (talk) 18:29, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

message: I'm trying to add some sources to the history and found and link to referenceforbusiness . com /history2/30/Affiliated-Computer-Services-Inc.html, which seems to be a good compilation of information. When I try to add it to the text it gets blocked. Anyone know why this isn't accepted? Thanks --Tec Tom (talk) 15:27, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Whatever the reason, I now added the book as source for the whole history (which is also cited in the above mentioned source). --Tec Tom (talk) 18:22, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
