My wife and I had an OUTSTANDING experience on the phone with Trisha Hall at the Athens, GA Social Security office earlier today. Was extremely friendly and polite, very knowledgeable, and most of all very diligent in helping each of us work thru issues we were having with signing up for retirement benefits and in taking actions to correct errors in my social security benefit payments. She was very thorough, took her time to make sure every question and issue was addressed, and quite frankly was the best customer service agent from any business of any type I can ever remember working with. Cannot thank Trisha enough for being so kind and helpful to us, and we hope to meet her one day so we can thank her in person! She is very special and should be commended for her excellent service ethic.

After going back and forth with the main Social Security office for two months over my application (which was being declined for the changing of the country code of Germany, I'm a naturalized citizen. Think this would be an easy fix, lol), I decided to go to my local office to see if they could straighten it out. Thanks to Gigi (phone contact who originally figured out the country code error), Barry ( rep I talked to at office), and Rick, (the supervisor who contacted the main office handling my application, and also actually called me at home with a status update), my application was finally approved. It's nice to deal with a government office and actually receive service above and beyond. Thanks for your great customer service.

I am disabled drawing SSA. I have a 14 year old son that has been receiving support from a family max plan going to my ex-wife where my son did reside. Due to several DFCS complaints my son now resides with me on a more permanent basis. Need Support

Jeff W. | Oct 15, 2018
Eula Winfrey | Oct 15, 2018

Jeff, of course. I will lend my emotional support ! Your son needs not only MORE of your love and attention now that you have obviously rescued him from abusive , neglectful behaviors inflicted upon him..But he needs financial support from you. Caring for a teen is going to be very costly, Jeff. I pray that these funds are now transferred to you as you seek Permanent custody. God Bless.

Some of the people don't know enough about their job. For instance a lady told me that I could get more benefit if I divorced my second husband and draw from my first. I got divorced last October and went to file when another lady said I couldn't file. Then I went to change my mailing address and mentioned it to a fine gentleman. He said that she was wrong and now I am receiving it.

Can I go to any office to fill my ssi update reports of papers to get mu benefits??

Christie McCurley | Oct 15, 2019

I know this was a while ago but social sec will only contact you by mail and also if you have signed up for a my social security account they may provide some info for you in there but most will be mail. if you are in doubt print out the page email you are getting and go show it to them. most importantly don't cash any check and send money to anyone if they ask you to. Always speak to some1 at the office if you get contacted a different way. hope you are doing well and all the best to you.
