I was in and out. Totally amazed. They are always so slow. You can't get them to answer the phone. For this to be a State office, they should have the faster workers working at front desk and the older ladies off there feet and behind a desk.

So much better than where I left in Sumter South Carolina! These people are very helpful, they called me back and did it interview right on the phone! so much better and more polite! Update: after three months they still do not have our address correct after we moved! I did have five stars but now it's one because they won't even answer their phone! They made excuses why my food stamps didn't process on time and now I am waiting for the process just because my rent changed higher and I am still waiting. They will hang up on you! I am still trying to get the supervisor which the girls will not let me speak to and I am calling again until this gets solved! Update: now they are taking the phone off the hook after lying and messing my snap. I let it ring over 100 times with no answer and now all of a sudden the lines are busy? I guess I will have to go up there with the police or my lawyer!?

My son lives with me, doesn't pay me a dime and steals my meds and food. What can be done???

I'm not sure Social Services can help you as much as the Pickens County Sheriff's Department. If you still qualify for SNAP, they should be able to help you keep him away from your food, medications, and home until he has a change of heart!

Is there a question here? You say girl are you talking about a child and what does that have to do with false allegations? I am very sorry just trying to make sense of the post. I don't understand, as in who made a report and what did they report and did the person who reported something get the child from the mother? As I said just trying to understand what happened as it is very confusing the way it is written. 🤔
