Does anyone know if this is normal? Where else can I go for information or to file a complaint?

I have been calling since October 2020, but no response keep getting cut off, trying to make appointment to reactivate my benefits due to name change office always closed. even if someone answers they hang up on me before i can finish telling them my problem.
I need to get a first time social security card for my 12 year old Do I need an apoiment or can I do it on line
I have had appointments with this office. They never call you back at the appointed time they give you. They never give you their name or number. They never answer their phones. I have been trying to reach them since April 1. I have called repeatedly with no success. I get passed around and disconnected.
I have called this office about six times requesting my medical records, I have given my information each time and today I call again only to find out that nothing has been done, no records of my calls or my request..today I find out that there’s a form that I have to fill out requesting my records.. so, hopefully I will receive that form within the next couple of days..
I recently lost my social security, what do I have to do?
Do you have a Drop box at this office or accept form dropped to personal? Otherwise should I mail to this address!

Does anyone know how to set an appointment?
I applied for my new Social Security Card after my divorce documents came in back in July 2020. I have not yet received my Documents back nor my new S.S.Card. What can I do?
I had a baby in February 19,2020 and never received his social security card. I sent in all the necessary paperwork to obtain it by mail over a month ago. I called in only to be told that it is backed up 60-90 days because the field officer is only working 2 days a week. I think this is very ridiculous. You all have my drivers license along with my baby's birth certificate ( that I had to pay for). Now I have to pay for a replacement license because the number that I call I was told to not leave a message because the officer does not check the messages. I think this is very messed up that I am being treated like this. I will be reaching to an attorney to see what can be done about this. Because you all work for the state, you can just treat the public any kind of way. I was told I would get his card in 14 days and this was a lie. I am furious and will be reaching out to all levels and reporting this behavior. This is so ridiculous. Also, the fact that the recording plays 2 time is ridiculous as well. I lived in Alabama and was not treated like this.

Can I make an appointment
Recientemente he tenido una mala experiencia en la atencion brindada por las Oficinas de West Palm Beach, situadas en la calle Clematis, Down Town WPB, asi como tambien mas reciente por la Oficina situada en Boca de Raton en 621 NW 53RD... En la de WPB extraviiaron o perdieron una certificacion de ingresos presentada y eso ha provocado que nos realicen un aumento de pago por SSI que no nos corresponde. El pasado 18 de Octubre fuimos a dar la queja de tal error a la Oficina de Boca. La persona que nos atendio diijo haber realizado o subsanado el error, sin embargo hoy dia primero hemos comprobado que no hizo nada y que el error en el pago continua. Ahora tenemos que volver a repetirlo todo, hacer devolucion de dichos importes pagados en exceso, presentar una apelacion y la consiguiente afectacion por tener ya reducida la ayuda que recibimos por Access Florida de EBT por este SUPUESTO AUMENTO DE INGRESOS. eN BUEN ROLLO NOS TIENEN AHORA METIDOS ESTOS IRRESPONSABLES ''ESPECIALISTAS'' EN EL TEMA DEL SSI
I have attempted to schedule an appointment for more than two weeks. I get the automated system and the same message that all Customer Service Employees are busy. Then I am told to call back. My issue cannot be resolved online and I need an appointment IMMEDIATELY...... Please??
someone in the government want to tell me how to schedule an apt for my 80 year old mother that cannot walk and I cannot get through to a live person ! this is ridiculous
I went into the office over a month ago and was told I would hear from them with in a week. Well it’s been over a month and I haven’t heard anything. It’s hard to get there when u are working and have to take off just to go there. And why is there no local office number to call, it takes about an hour and sometimes longer to get someone on the line at the 800 number, only to get referred but to the local office. Shaking my head.
Total waste of time. No one available. Busy times are early in the week and early in the month. It's Thursday, July 19. It should not be busy. No online option, but told to go online to do business? Ineffective and archaic.
This is the biggest waste of time - you should be able to request an appointment online. I've called twice - once the hold time was 45 minutes the second time they would even let me hold they just said to call back all agents are busy. REALLY! I have to work too - I can't just sit on the phone all day at work trying to get someone to answer my call and make an appointment. Totally inefficient.
I would like to request an appointment and office hours for the location on 801 Clematis Street, Ste #2, West Palm Beach, Fl 33401. Please respond, thank you!
I don't understand why I cannot make an appointment online. When I call the 800 number, they tell me that I have to wait over an hour to talk to someone who will make the appt for me. Why not offer a call back? Seems silly to make someone sit and wait on hold in this digital age
