Inaccessible call center - people trying to call in for benefits
reported hours long waits to get through. The Internet site was much
better.
Impenetrable process - Was I denied? Now I have to apply to SBA so I
can come back for FEMA grants. SBA is swamped. SBA got back to me
promptly because I failed to get my wife's signature on one of the
pages. Unfortunately I haven't heard from them since. I did have a nice
call from the Dept. of Homeland Security in November to survey my
experience. Still waiting.
Random payments - Too many people reported they though they had
been turned down but then got paid. Some got $2000, some $4300, some
even more.
