Social Security - My pic Juan dominguez

The office is centrally located on 7th Ave and has convenient parking . I would visit this…read morelocation if needed. However, since the pandemic much has changed and this 2025 a lot more has changed. I was very disappointed with my last visit 2weeks ago. They have a sign posted (registered appointment line up here (left side) and non registered appointments line up here (right side). I drove a senior to the office and there were no lines, she only needed an award form. The representative on the phone said go in and explain what you need. To our surprise and dismay both security officers turned us away and said go online and make an appointment. One of the main issues is many seniors are not technology savvy and need a human being to assist them. Immediately I had to call SSA, wait 15 minutes (thank goodness), to ask the representative to mail her the form needed. I will say it has enough security features / barriers inside that you can't just walk in. The Front office security definitely needs to show a little more respect and kindness and towards people in general entering the office. Yes, I know they run into people who are aggressive, upset and have bad behavior but they should not taken that attitude towards everyone else who arrives for assistance. Sadly the government is starting to make all federal agencies worse. Jesus help us

I cannot imagine a worse experience. Avoid this location at all costs.

After waiting an hour in the general queue, the staff was extremely rude, passive aggressive, and entirely unhelpful.

Better Business Bureau - BBB Serving the Pacific South West (PACSW)

Better Business Bureau

After submitting a detailed, well-documented complaint about Amazon's widespread practice of…read moreindefinitely withholding seller funds (affecting thousands of small businesses), I was deeply disappointed by BBB's handling of the matter. For those unfamiliar, BBB is basically Yelp for people who still have AOL email addresses - except when you leave a negative review, they actually remove it instead of just hiding it behind seventeen popups asking you to download their app. My complaint addressed a systemic business practice - not an individual account dispute. I provided comprehensive information about how Amazon's policies harm small businesses across the country through their fund withholding practices. When Amazon responded by demanding my specific seller account email (clearly attempting to narrow this to an individual case), I wrote a detailed explanation to BBB about why this wasn't appropriate. I offered alternative verification including documentation of the widespread nature of the issue and redacted examples. BBB's response? They simply closed my complaint, claiming I "failed to provide necessary clarification" - despite my thorough explanation. This experience reveals that BBB appears more interested in maintaining relationships with large corporations than advocating for small businesses. They operate like a protection racket with accreditation fees instead of actually holding businesses accountable. If you're considering using BBB for a complaint against a large corporation, save yourself the time and just post on social media instead. At least there, your complaint won't disappear faster than the "A+" ratings of companies that pay their annual BBB membership fees.

One big surprise I had was checking out the Culture Pass and spotting the one pass for free admission to see Cabaret at Herberger Theater Center(!)* When I was at the branch recently, they had a Roaring 2020 display, with a selfie photo stand along with a bulletin board of newspaper shots of downtown Phoenix architecture and notoriety surrounding the Phoenix area from 1920-9. It would've been a bonus if they had mannequins sporting the actual 1920s fashion. Thanks for the trip down Phoenix history :) The library is a tiny building nestled on the same parking lot behind Colonnade, between 16th & 20th Sts on Highland. *I knocked off a star because when I was there before that day and inquired 2 librarians why I was getting e-mails from their automation stating the ticket from the (Cabaret) Culture Pass had expired and needed to return it (like books), which is, of course, very odd, and the librarians didn't know what to do about it and were very puzzled; yet, didn't take action to figure out. One library (male with glasses kept being distracted and looking at the computer to do his business and the other, an older female with very white hair, didn't know what to do- this was on a Sunday afternoon). I had to do their jobs and give them my library card to see what's up and of course, they didn't see anything suspicious. Of course not, it was just a silly error that eventually went away. And, of course, I redeemed that Cabaret ticket (eye roll) :)

The staff was very professional and informative. They were really helpful to me from my initial phone calls on providing me an extension; because, after asking questions that were on the forms that I needed a benefits letter directly from Social Security Administration which would take time to receive. FYI: I had taken over the paperwork for my mother (who doesn't speak/write English very well-Korean born) from my sister and wasn't there at your office initially in acquiring this packet. After finally receiving this letter & other paperwork; I went down to your office personally to make sure I did it correctly without further delays from my misunderstanding of some of the forms. The front reception area was very friendly & professional in helping me in contacting the right department to ask further questions. I would like to further inform you of a great member of your staff you have in Paulina L. Paulina works on one of your helpdesks and has always been patient when dealing with questions. She was able to use her knowledge and understanding to help me. She clearly explained the process & length of time this could possibly take in receiving further answers. With employees like Paulina on your staff role I am surprised that Neighborhood Housing doesn't have better reviews; and actually is the kind of service that was beyond my expectation to be honest. My experience has been extremely positive thus far.

You guys are always busy or due to high call volumes. You guys can't answer. You guys never answer a phone. It's like you're not here for the people anymore and you guys don't care. I am trying to renew my nutrition stamps, and you guys are trying to make me jump through hoops when all I should be able to do is push renewal but you guys don't even give that option it's there but you can't click it. I'm sick of this government and how it's being ran and it's not here for the people, but we all pay taxes when we go out to eat when we go buy things when we go and do things but yet we can't get help where we need it. And I put a one star rating because I had to put a star rating. You guys should be a negative star rating so as my star stands, it is standing for a negative one.
