deceitful people
I filed for widows benefits in 2003 on my second husband. I was 61. I was told I could file on my first husband when I reached 65 and I would get a higher amount. Filed the claim 10/03/2007. I was told I would receive a claim letter in 30 days. Instead she unreasonably delayed my claim for 5 and 1/2 months. Her excuse was "It's on a supervisor's desk or I'm going on vacation for a week or it's a holiday and I won't be in the office until next Monday or call me... I have one more question to ask you."I've searched my brain and cannot figure out what this nightmare is about. I told the truth and followed the rules and still don't know why they stalled for 5 1/2 months. Finally, around Feb. 1st they sent me an entitlement letter stating I would receive back pay Feb.9th and my benefits would start in March. Guess what? They claim the Post Office lost my back pay. I have direct deposit... so I knew that was an outright lie. I have no way of finding out where my back pay is. Last time I called I was told they would issue another check but that would take another 10 days. I think they are stalling again and possibly breaking the law and there is nothing I can do.I am 65 and counting and this has been a very bad experience. I thought I would spend my older years not having to fight the system but it has not turned out that way. I am very angry that the people who work for SS is so deceitful & calling the 1-800 number is a joke.

I do not know why I get calls from other states of The United States and I got a call from someone in El Paso Texas claiming to be with the Department of Treasury and I got another call from someone claiming to be with the Social Security Administration and both people tell me that I have a warrant of arrest and will be arrested and I do not know
It took to long on the phone. I waited for 2 hours why and I didn't even get anyone to answer.
I lost my social security card and I went today to get a new one. I got there and they are open Monday Tuesday Thursday and Friday from 8-4 and Wednesday from 8-12. Why the heck are they not open till 4 on Wednesday. The rest of the world works those hours but not a half day in the middle of the week. It's not very customer service friendly.

I am scheduled to have a perc interview with ssa representative abigail kirby on the 31st of january, I called her several times to inform her that I would be unable to attend, as well as to ask her if we could conduct the interview over the phone. she has never answered the phone calls, nor has she responded to any of my voicemails. I then call ssa's 1 800 number to try and retrieve ms. kirby's email from them. the first representative retrieved her email and gave it to me but when I called back in order to confirm the email address, the representative tells me that she does not have access to that information. I then ask to speak to a supervisor and ask him to confirm the email address and he states that he is not at liberty to give me the information. I then tell him that when speaking to the first representative I was given the email address, he then tells me that just because someone gave me some information that they weren't supposed to doesn't mean that he's going to do so. so somebody tell me how in the bloody hell am I supposed to contact this slacking representative? I called the local office to get her email address and got the same outcome. now I am not too sure if I should use the email address that I received because evidently I retrieved it by mistake,
I have been fighting with ssa since april 2015 about benefits. I am currently paying an overpayment because they said I was qualified under my 1st husband and I was not. I was told I qualified under my 2nd husband but am still trying to find out what is going on. I receive letters from ssa and cannot get amyone to explain what is going on. I am constantly receiving letters from ssa. everyone states different amounts and i'm upset that the local office does not make appointments only on a walk-in basis. I feel that is an invasion of my privacy that I should discuss my concerns in front of a room full of people. i'm at the point of giving up as it seems nothing can be done.
What authority a social security judge can interfere between a client and his lawyer and make a decision favor my lawyer against me his client. my story is I hired a ss lawyer signed the document after denied and appeals with the ss judge I won my case received my benefits and my lawyer got paid from the benefits I received all of sudden my lawyer asked for more money and send me bills and him and the judge agreed that the ss office pay my lawyer more money and withholding the money from me when I retired when I appeal it same judge denied. confused lost trust in the ss judge and my ss lawyer.
I got married in 2003 in laughlin, nv. since the ceremony was on a boat from one of the casinos and made it's last stop in arizona, I was required to get an arizona license. since then I have been attempting to change my last name to match my husbands. I keep getting denied. if I go in to the offices or try to mail in my application I get the same feedback. the social security offices don't like the way my marriage certificate looks. I can't change how arizona does things. calling the 800 is a joke, and I haven't been able to find who I can contact in order to get help. evidently, is you make a fake name you have an easier time chaging your social security card then if you get married.
I am amazed as I read these complaints. I qualified for medicare a year ago. until I qualified for medicare, although i've heard horror stories, i've never had any dealings with the government. i've had several problems for the past year still unresolved. i've made a few conclusions after my past year multiple experiences and research.
First, it's a culture! the bureaucracy, lackadaisical attitude and even incompetency is a culture created by its structure. no or little management or accountability. even our elected officials, top down, act as if they are aware of the issues, act as if they will fix the problems, act as if the really care but they only contribute to the problems. it's absolutely unbelievable and deplorable what I have experienced, witnessed and learned the past year about ssa, medicare and the irs.
It's time our government operates with the same accountability, performance standards and work ethics as business. it's time the employees are provided the same benefits as the working class in business. as corporations, we can no longer afford to provide government employees pensions and excessive vacation time! it's time government employees meet the same performance standards and subject to termination as the working class working in business.
Second, we can't rely on government management or our elected officials to make any effort to make these changes. it's up to the voting working class to be outspoken, get involved, make known these issues and we're not going to take it anymore! "the wheel that squeals the ouudest get greased!" I believe america is beginning to wake up! no one should have to go through what I or millions of others have gone through with their government experiences.
It is shameful of the Social Security Administration to only approve low life people who use their SSI checks to buy illegal drugs. It makes me wonder if some members of the SSA are not hooked on crack.
