I found a way to solve rescheduling identity verification appointment, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0M16_efT1_g

Ugh, I feel your pain. I had to reschedule mine too and it was a nightmare. Took me like 3 days of constant calling to finally get through. Keep trying, and maybe try calling right when they open?

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Check out this video for more info: https://youtu.be/bDXD2SD0gGk

Have you tried using their online portal? Sometimes its easier to reschedule through there instead of calling. Just a thought!

Pro tip: have all your info ready before you call. SSN, reference numbers, everything. Makes the process go way smoother when you finally get through.

Have you tried sacrificing a goat to the bureaucracy gods? Heard that works wonders 🐐

Here's what worked for me: 1. Call exactly at 8:01 AM when they open 2. If you get the busy signal, hang up and redial immediately 3. Repeat step 2 until you get through (took me about 20 tries) 4. Once in the queue, DO NOT HANG UP no matter how long the wait 5. Have all your info ready to go It's a pain, but this method finally got me through after weeks of trying. Good luck!

Has anyone tried contacting their local representative? I've heard sometimes they can help speed things up.

anyone else feel like were living in a kafka novel? asking for a friend 😂

I've heard rumors they're updating the system soon. Anybody know if thats true or just wishful thinking?

One thing to consider is using a service like Claimyr, which has helped several people expedite the call process. It's a paid service, so weigh costs against time and stress savings. For some, the $20 fee is worthwhile for the time saved, especially if you value your time highly or need an urgent resolution. However, it's always good to be cautious and verify reviews before purchasing such services.

lol welcome to bureaucracy hell. been trying to sort out my benefits for 3 months now. good luck!

THE WHOLE SYSTEM IS BROKEN! We shouldn't have to jump through all these hoops just to get basic services. It's time for a complete overhaul!
