OPM services online

[James48843]

Has anybody tried to call OPM retirement services on-line lately?

I sent in, by mail, a request to suspend my health insurance in January- but it hasn’t kicked in- I think it should have by this month- but it didn’t. So I tried to call and ask if they received it.

And I’ve been trying to telephone for about a week now, several times a day, without success. The recording just says “we’re busy, try later”.

I have called about 20 times now over a week without getting a human.

Anybody else tried since the Doge boys visited the PA OPM cave two weeks ago?

I was online the other day and everything looked fine. I haven't tried calling anyone.

Try calling Right as the open for business (maybe give them 5 minutes to get the switchboard open) their hours are: Monday thru Friday, 7:40 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET. If you are west of them, You might need to have your Java fix a little earlier than normal.

I've only used the 'retire@opm.gov' email but they always replied in the past.
Haven't tried them lately.
