How about rehiring all of the fired staff? SS was UNDERSTAFFED before the S African idiot got his hands on power.

Maybe, just maybe, not everything they think, should go flying out of their mouths as a institutional mandate. Think before you talk or do or something.

It’s shocking and terrifying to me that I don’t know if my Social Security will be deposited into my account.
I’m one of many, many millions of people who rely on it.

Social Security Administration Backs Off Phone Service Changes, AARP Says

fredschll.bsky.social•4 days ago

They probably just won't man them, so you still get the same result. I have been trying for a week to sign on to my https://SSA.gov account to no avail. I am also a retired federal employee and can't get into my OPM account either. Musk is cutting off all access to our own data, all while they steal it.

idahogem.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yeah, try reaching someone on the phone. I finally gave up after two hours.

williamstlucia.bsky.social•4 days ago

Very nice article, too bad. It's not true. When's the last time you picked up a phone and called social security How long did you have to wait before you got a freaking human being If you ever did😳🤐

Thank goodness, because I have a Social Security phone appointment on April 11 for survivor's benefits. I've already been waiting in eager anticipation for months, because they lost my application I mailed in last October.

But are they going to back off on trying to replace a complex computer system/application within a time frame of a few months? Trust me; that's an accident waiting to happen. Especially considering these wet behind the ears "programmers" can't read COBOL (the current programming language).

jimclausen.bsky.social•4 days ago

Just paying the phone bill won't do much uf you've fired all the folks who used to answer them.

clwaryas.bsky.social•4 days ago

But will there be any SS employees there to ANSWER the phones?

jeff1420.bsky.social•4 days ago

Oh, no. They've cut all those, but you're welcome to stay on hold for 8 hours

Next question: Are they going to have real people in the US answering the phones? Or will they contract this task out to overseas vendors or AI companies?

jackaggro.bsky.social•4 days ago

jillmotorfreak.bsky.social•4 days ago

They are saying that to shut people up but with the staff cuts there won't be enough people to answer the phone, also, they are deliberately tampering with the portal, they have not stopped dismantling Soc Sec no matter what they say to pacify us "parasites".

@petermorley.bsky.social Thank you!

I held my breath...and as soon as my eyes opened this morning I checked to make sure my SS check is in the bank. So grateful it is.

Without it...I am unable to meet my obligations.

Trump has already caused chaos at SSA. As of today I have lost $1800 due to SSA not being able to process my IRMMA request. I put in the request four months ago. When Biden was in office the SSA processed my request in under 30 days and I never lost a penny. I hate Trump.

janeofvictory.bsky.social•4 days ago

I’m holding off on filing mine for this reason.

coachsandys.bsky.social•4 days ago

The sooner your file it gets into their system. They are going to have such a backlog to work through so it might be hurting you to hold off submitting your request. Hoping for the best for you 🙏💙
