One of the WORST experiences I've ever had. First, let me preface by saying this. I do have extensive knowledge/work experience when dealing with client tax reporting. However, getting assistance with properly feeling out the form. I was instructed by the @TDBANK branch manager (Clinton, MD) on whom the addressee/custodian should be. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way by someone else's error. Now after, I finally received the distribution check. On the Pay to Order line: the wrong information was listed. I contacted MDSRA to discuss proper procedure and if I can have it expedited since the error was done by the third party (bank employee). I was informed on "how to" go about completing my request and MDSRA would gladly expedite the issue. Guess how long I've been waiting for my money? Take a lucky guess? Every representative via email or by phone have mentioned: and I quote " We have been working on your request. Once we have determined the issue- then we will call or email you." Now I was able to finally speak to an Supervisor; since I had to call from work phone. Hence the perkiness in the agents tone of voice. I quickly asked to speak with a manager/Supervisor. I was able to speak to one of them. Once again he continued to give me the same baloney that others were trying to feed me regarding my request. Side bar, I use to work for a major international investment firm. I've created/Ran/Validated/Audited client tax reports for retail investors (Average Joe) to institutional (municipalities) clients. I'm not dumb!!! I spoke their jargon. However, I was informed there is a possibility that I wouldn't received my check until end of Summer. I am now prepared to have a third party litigate these matters.

When they say they sent you information they mark down that you received it, when you didn't. When you send them information they didn't receive it in time and closed your case. Even though you have proof it was sent!

I need to speak to a counselor about a time-sensitive and urgent matter and clicked on the option of leaving my number to be called back, but the recording kept asking for my phone number even though I typed it in several times. Then it hung up on me.

I was mind-blown by their customer service. Very rude and disrespectful. Please do better.

As a state employee you have access to POSC online. Your HR office should be able to assist with access.

When will the COLA raise number starting with the July, 2022 checks be announced? I think we are already about a month later than usual.

Len Sokoloff | May 9, 2022
Delcia Whitaker | May 9, 2022

I was told it was in July...but let me check again.

cost of living 2020

Barbara Schwarz | Oct 6, 2020
Nirav Arora | Oct 6, 2020

If you look for apartments in downtown then they cost about 1300 dollars a month for 1 bhk, then parking would cost something around 150 a month and utilities would be around 200 a month.

How do you ever get to speak to a real live person? Every time I call, it says the phone line is "extraordinarily busy."

Is The state of Maryland still providing Medicare part D benefits for retirees

Patricia Lambros | Oct 6, 2020
Al DeRemigis | Oct 6, 2020

If you are a Maryland retiree you should have received information about this during open enrollment last month. You should contact the Department of Budget & Management for information.

When do we received printed retirement updates in the mail?

Richard Robinson -MDH- | Oct 7, 2019
Al DeRemigis | Oct 7, 2019

Normally you would receive them in September; however, this year the MSRA will not be sending printed Personal Statements of Benefits. Instead they will be mailing post cards with instructions on how to obtain your information from their website sra.maryland.gov. I hope this answers your question.

If the first is on a Sunday, is your pension deposit in your bank on Sat. ?

Robert Evans | Oct 7, 2019
Jenny Aus | Oct 7, 2019

The Last Business Day of the month. So it would be the prior Friday.

Where is agency number located on my retirement check automatic deposit advise stub. i need it to register on SPS Workday for Retirees

Charles Woodward | Oct 7, 2019
Al DeRemigis | Oct 7, 2019

There is probably a 6 or 8 digit "location" number on your advice stub. This is a code for your agency. I'm not sure how many digits are needed to register for SPS Workday for retirees, but for example, if 4 digits are needed, then it would be the first 4 digits. If only 2 digits are needed, then it's the first 2 digits of the location code. Same for 6 digits. I hope this helps.

I have tried calling several times but cannot get very far because I do not remember getting a four digit pin number. Also, my husband does not know his pin number. How can I find this out when you need it to access any information?

Susan Kreiger | Oct 7, 2019
Al DeRemigis | Oct 7, 2019

If you are an active member your pin is 4 digits. The first two are the month you entered the plan (started work with a participating employer). The second two are the year. For example, if you started work January, 2002, then your pin would be 0102. If you are retired, then your pin is the month & year you retired. July, 2015 the pin would be 0715.
