    I have tried calling your Pontiac office and no one answers. The appointment phone number 1-800-772-1213 drops the call after using option 6. There isn't any available form of communication with the Social Security Administration.

    When is office open back up?

  3. Jun 7, 2021

    This was a very ridiculous attempt. Office is closed. Sat on hold 3 times, got people on line who were clueless, and put me on hold that disconnected me. I'm so fed up with incompetence, they could not have cared less. Very flip and clueless 3 times

    I was awarded Social Security disability back in September. I have contacted your office many many times. I have not seen a letter or payment. It is very frustrating.Ms Baez Told me on January 19 that she would take care of it. Still have not heard anything.

    I spoke to a lady whom said she was from the Southfield office and now I see there isn't an office in Southfield. Unfortunately I deleted her number by accident and can't call her back. Also, she said I was approved to receive part of my husband's social security (he is also retired) and she would be sending me my application. I've still not received anything. Was this a scam? I really need the extra income as I have separated from my husband and my income is only in the three digits.

Waiting in an empty office for hours. My daughter has proven that she has custody of my grandson ,yet Employee Ali keep spewing lies and deception. Is there someone above her I can file a complaint to?

    The signs on this building say the office is closed for repairs--When does it plan on opening?

    Since there isn't a posted phone number for the Pontiac office or other offices near me, I have to wait on line and this is unacceptable. I'm tired of the recordings, hanging on for over an hour then being told to GO to the office. In the Top Tips your first tip is MAKE AN APPOINTMENT, how is this possible if the number isn't posted ? And it isn't available to do on-line either if you can navigate the computer ? Sincerely, Ruth A. Anderson
