Once I received a favorable decision by the administrative Judge, my checks went to the closed account that was on record. I called Andre at the social security office in the State Of Washington headquarters . He was informative ,polite and most of all he listen to the details surrounding my issues. He wasted no time in correcting the error that I had made. Andre I want to thank you for your competence in making sure that my award and monthly benefits will not be interrupted.

After weeks of waiting, the national SSA hotline informed us that the local office made a processing error on her application. The local office phone line (866-931-2675) is never answered by a person--it is just automated menus and endless holds. When I went to this location in person to provide the reference number given by national support, the front desk staff member was rude, cut me off, and refused to even look up the record in the system. Be prepared for unhelpful staff and zero phone support if you come here.

I was instructed to go downtown with my original birth certificate and drivers license. When I got there, the security guard informed me that Seattle started a call-in requirement for appointments this week and gave ne a phone number to call and a QR code for their web site. There is no way to request an appointment on their web site. After a long phone tree, the robot said the on-hold wait time was "over 120 minutes." That could mean "not today." I will try again at 8:00 AM and see if "over 120 minutes" means over 8 hours. I have spent over 2 hours today to get this far.

Individuals…read morewith appointments were slowly allowed inside, while those without appointments--including disabled individuals--were required to wait outside. I was finally allowed in at 9:11 AM, checked in at the kiosk, and waited. At approximately 9:32 AM, my number (S196) was called. I explained that I had received a fully favorable decision for both SSI and SSDI and that my concern was specifically regarding my SSDI payment, which had not yet been received despite prior processing steps already being completed. The agent immediately defaulted to a scripted response, repeatedly stating that everything was "being processed," without listening to or acknowledging the specifics of my situation. I clarified multiple times that I had already completed my interview in February and had received SSI, but not SSDI. Instead of addressing the discrepancy, the agent continued to repeat the same generic response. I then requested to speak with a supervisor. I was told I could not, because she had already "answered my question." When I calmly asked again, she closed the window on me without providing her name or any assistance. Security then began pressuring me to leave. I stepped outside, contacted my attorney, and returned to formally request a supervisor. I was made to wait outside again--standing, in the cold--until approximately 10:52 AM before being allowed back in. After additional waiting, I was finally able to speak with a supervisor and file a formal grievance. I left the office at 11:19 AM. This experience reflects a serious lack of professionalism, accountability, and basic respect--especially toward individuals with disabilities who rely on these services. Requiring people to wait outside for extended periods, combined with dismissive and obstructive staff behavior, is unacceptable.

He muttered to his coworker, "Anyone who comes here is obligated to know English." Since I speak English, I understood him and asked, "Why do you say that? We requested an appointment with a Spanish-speaking representative, and there are plenty of signs in Spanish here." In the end, he sent us back to the waiting room and told us to wait while he attended to someone else; more customers kept coming in, but we weren't called. We ended up missing the appointment... and felt discriminated against by someone of our own Latino background. We returned nearly 16 days later, and this time we were assisted by a white American man who didn't speak Spanish but was incredibly kind and respectful; he helped us wonderfully with everything, and the process took no more than 10 minutes

BOA unlawfully withheld access to all of my money, for almost 2 weeks. FBI Buffalo agents were USELESS. You did too many transactions at once? Actually, BOA did the illegal transaction and I just tried to get the rest of my money out of their bank. Under the Electronic Federal Transfer Act, BOA broke about a dozen laws, but FBI Buffalo wouldn't do anything. I notice their Google reviews have been shut down so nobody can out them publicly for their actions. This is what corruption looks like, when those who are supposed to protect you only want to protect themselves, from public exposure and having to actually file a police report.

By dialing 9-1-1, callers have immediate access to the system and its excellent medical care, regardless of location, circumstances, or time of day. This is NOT true, I was told by the Deputy Chief of Seattle that only approximately 10% of emergency medical calls are routed to Medic One, the remainder go to a for profit ambulance service called AMR that charges $2500+ for an emergency and transporting you a few miles.
