I have tried for over an hour to get ahold of someone to make an appointment, but I can not ever get through to anyone. , I even tried looking things up on my phone.
To the attention of Rich in the Auburn, CA Social Security office. I want to give my heartfelt thanks and gratitude for the services, responsiveness, helpfulness of Rita Ponce. She is knowledgeable, kind, and was very, very helpful.
I have called the Auburn, California office 5 times today. The first time I was on hold for 6 1/2 minutes and then disconnected I tried 3 more times and the line was busy. I finally got through, I was on hold for 17 minutes: a recording came on and said they didn't know who I was calling and said to call back later. This is absolutely ridiculous.
I called the Auburn office seven times and was never able to speak to a human. Either I got a busy signal or a recording saying 'sorry, your call cannot be completed at this time.' I found a social security card on the ground at a gas station, you would think they would care that I found a lost card but it is safe. I just want to mail it to Social Security or have them let the gentleman know he lost his card. I guess they don't care. Good luck dealing with this office, you'll need it.
John has been wonderful to me Thank you John
I just hung up after phoning your Auburn office TWICE. I waited 20 minutes before they were 'connecting' me by a normal phone ring. It rang 5 minutes and I finally hung up. The second time, same problem: 19 minutes before 'connecting' me and the phone than rang 5 minutes. NOTHING! You need to correct the problem!!!! I'd drive to Auburn, but it's 36 miles one way.
I called at 10:40 am on Thursday Nov. 21, 2019. I needed a benefits letter for a mortgage refinance. The phone number was for auburn maine, where I live. The phone message informed the office was closed.... although the hours repeated to me on the recording told me clearly that the office was open on Thursday, 9- 4. How can this be? Pretty rotten customer service for a citizen who just wanted to ask a question.
When I go online to ask a question of my Placer County SS office, I keep getting a lawyer's name. I do not want to pay for lawyer charges to get an answer to my question; this is very misleading. My question is, how do I change my bank account number for deposit? Secondly, is it possible to change my day of receipt to the first of the month instead of every third Wed, which is not convenient at all. Thank you.
