~f-tiaacref's review of TIAA-CREF customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's TIAA-CREF customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~f-tiaacref: The wait time wasn't bad for me, but the conversation was. The woman I spoke to was VERY rude. She pretty much screamed at me when I asked about withdrawing my money. Then, she shrieked again when I asked her to clarify what she had said previously. I finally hung up on her and went through their website. I can only hope my next job doesn't use them for retirement accounts.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting TIAA-CREF. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a TIAA-CREF problem?

~f-tiaacref: For that I would say three out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other TIAA-CREF customers?
