I'm desperate! Can anyone give advice on HOW to get through on PVSP's appointment line? I have tried two days straight now, hitting re-dial every few seconds and it's always busy!!!

I'm desperate because there is only one more day this week to make an appt. and his mom is coming all the way from another state and I want her to have her two full days. :( :( :(

Welcome to my world. You are on the right track. All you can do is redial that number the whole 2 hours straight. There is only one person that answers that line, and she does her best to go quickly. Last time I got in on the last 9 minutes of Wednesday.

Good luck, and I really hope you get in.

Hi,

I have the same problem too, usually I get in within a the first or last 30 minutes, I just redial, hang up and redial, the whole time, it's actually I little harder for me because currently I'm in Mexico and it's a little harder to get through. But good luck, if you find any secrets to get through quicker let me know ok? :)

I had made reservations at a motel in Coalinga so I could spend the whole two days, and I tried MON, TUE, WED Without any luck! So now I have to write and tell my buddy that we will have to wait for another couple of weeks...sure is irritating! Why don't they just let us email in reservations!

sofiey, really???

I got my number at 7:30 am, 8:30, and 9:30 on the last 3 visits, and I didn't get in until 1 pm on ANY of those days because they were so slow doing the noon count!! :mad: I told him I might as well come at noon if I'm not getting in before 1 or 1:30 anyhow. arrgg.

Maybe it's because mine is Close A? Doesn't everybody have count time at noon?

LOL Somerdawn... yeah I'm going, too. Maybe we should place bets on who gets the longest visit...

I'm trying the 11 am trick this time -- unless I get an appointment tomorrow (yeah right) :p

I didn't get in...:(

I even timed my redial, it was only 5 seconds between each busy signal. I don't see how I could hit the button any quicker...

Felt like an idiot, walking around with a phone for 3 solid days and 2 weeks straight!

I am so frustrated... :(

Thanks, you're a sweetie... (sniff).

I'm calling the visiting office tomorrow to see if they'll allow a special visit since she's coming so far.

Hey sofiey, thanks.

I went at 11 this time and even though we only got 2 hours like usual, at least I wasn't all ticked off when I saw him! It was much easier...
