AI Highlights
  • - I have been on hold for over an hour and repeatedly transferred.
  • - Email access to NYCHA chairman on 311 is removed and I’m at risk with Housing Connect.

I have been trying to get through to someone at the ccc and everytime I've been on hold for more then an hour someone answers then transfers me to where I started. I have important information and I can't get through.

They have removed email ability to the nycha chairman on 311. They are unreachable.

I need someone to help me asap. I already lost one apartment on housing connect due to the same issue, and it seems that it might happen again.

Preferred solution: A call back (347)807-5837

User's recommendation: Run they don't care to do anything they get paid to do. A waste of time and frustration. They want you to loose your voucher.

AI Highlights
  • - Section 8 voucher about to expire; I requested a 300-day extension.
  • - Others in my shelter got the extension, and I face discrimination and inaction.

Calling about my sec 8 voucher that's about to expire. I called about a month ago an explain my situation by not getting my 300 days extension, they're pretending to not know what I am talking about.

Every1 in my shelter got that extension apart from me. Here I am can't get an apartment because of discrimination and low amount and these people sit in their offices not doing anything.

Preferred solution: Nedd to speak to a supervisor

User's recommendation: Horrible organization
