Their phone system seems to be programmed to hang up on you (with a chirpy, infuriating, "Goodbye!") if it detects you are trying to reach a live person. Unlike pretty much every corporation where I've tried to reach a human, instead of putting a representative on when it can't figure out what you want, it just hangs up. This company clearly doesn't give a crap about customer service.

I am in an emergency situation in Azle Texas, with an elderly couple who accidentally threw away their entire money order for rent to their government housing apartments. I have been on the phone with Wu no less than 15 times. I have been hung up on, given numbers and extensions that don't exist and put on hold for a total of hours. I am simply trying to get a stop payment for this disabled couple who are at high risk of getting evicted!! I have never dealt with a company like this in my life. This could be a life or death situation and I can not find anyone in this corporate giant to talk to. This company is a disgrace. I'm contacting Fox 4 New in Dallas to investigate. Maybe they can get an answer.
