I tried calling the US embassy today. I live in Brasilia, Brasil and I need info on a certain document and I'm on a tight timeline. So I call the embassy get through their long automated teller and its starts ringing for an attendant. It rings, rings and rings. No answer. So I hang up and call back a few minutes later. Rings three times and then someone picks up and hangs up! Argh! I've been living in Brasil for over a year now and all I ever get from this embassy is rude impatient people with sticks up their asses.

I would like to complain. But I dont know who to complain to. And maybe this is just typical embassy behavior. I dunno.

Are all embassies like this everywhere??

And does anyone know anything about some kind of document you get from the embassy in Brazil when you register? I registered over a year ago and I never recieved anything in return. And I just recently updated my info online and nothing. Now the Federal Police are asking for this document in order to finalize my permanent residency visa. I have no clue what they are talking about.

Same in Colombia, US embassy workers are rude on the phone and worse in person. The COs themselves are pretty nice but everybody else can kiss my @$%. <_<
