Had a pleasant experience conversation with the representative. Answered my questions as well as offered good advice
I’ve just called and I’m waiting to get my appointment to create my ssn. I don’t t have one yet but I do have an EAD card. I’ve been waiting for almost a year to receive my ssn but because of the pandemic I’ve been out online all this time. I just called and they told me that a manager would contact me right away.
I had fraud on my Bank account. Open in a diferent bank and need to change direct deposit you do not have anything related to my need.
I would like to say thank you to Social Security for making it possible is the face of God and knowing that I had help take care of my children my son turn 18 he does know a little bit about finances but now it's time for him to learn how to work a checkbook Uncle mother I will make sure that she does this thank you social security for allowing him to still receive a check. God is awesome
It is outrageous that when you get blocked from the website Tech support cannot get me to sign in because I tried to log in and my password is in there for very long the same one the system tells you try letter but is blocked. Then I call tech support and was told I have to go to an office to get unblock. I am 77 and no car. I cannot go. Tech support should be able after verification is me to give a code to reset password instead of sending you to an office to unblock. It is ridiculous. Kic O
I was talking to an operator about setting up an appointment at the local Valrico office. As he was pulling up my information, the phone was cut off and the connection was severed. I have been waiting for him to call me back. I gather my call wasn't important enough for a call back. I would like to set up an appointment for accessing my deceased wife's SS account when I retire shortly. Would it be possible for someone to contact me? telephone# 727-488-9207 or 813-635-5707 Thank you. I tried calling back told by a recording that everyone was busy and cut off.
