Dear Sirs,
I am writing to your office to attempt to determine why I have encouraged so many obstacles to receiving my proper monthly social allotment. (1) {{U}}The trouble occurred ten months ago and has actually gotten worse, making extremely difficult for me to meet normal financial obligations. {{/U}}(2) {{U}}The first problem which I had to deal was simply getting a monthly check from you,{{/U}} without having to wait for four or five extra weeks for it. Then two of the checks that have arrived (3){{U}} made out for the wrong amount, giving me fifty dollars fewer than I should have received{{/U}}. (4) {{U}}Another check was mailed to me at an address, which I moved more than two years ago. {{/U}}(5) {{U}}My letter of inquiry, which I sent to the Los Angeles Office of the Social Security administration, never brought the answer,{{/U}} and when I finally telephoned them I was able to talk with an arrogant clerk (6) {{U}}from the tone of his voice I could tell that he didn't want to be bothered with me.{{/U}} The final blow is a letter received from your office yesterady in which you state that (7) {{U}}my allotment is being discontinued, your records indicated that I am legally dead{{/U}}.
Apart from this letter of protest I have at least one other recourse: (8) {{U}}filing suit against the Social Security Administration, that I would prefer not to have to do.{{/U}} (9) {{U}}Howevers I am asking you to take whatever steps are necessary{{/U}} to ensure that (10) {{U}}from now on I receive my social security benefits with further obstacles.{{/U}} This letter also testifies that I'm indeed not dead, legally or otherwise.
Sincerely yours,
Thelma Spencer
