~kr: Outrageous. After * minutes of punching numbers, I'm told no one can take my call and the system hangs up. Happens over and over again.

I'm left trying to guess which number will get me through to a live person, and not to another recording. The most frustrating experience one can possibly have with a company. this is MY MONEY we're talking about--I paid MY TAXES. Yet the system is completely set up to deny the taxpayer of his benefits.
