- AUAngel UlloaNov 1, 20251.01 star …should not be given …I had a whole appointment on my day off for NO ONE in the facility to call me and let me know there wasn’t an Agent in to process passport applications. I was told to come today Saturday Nov 1st at 9am it’s currently 9:36 and they’re having us wait till 10am but aren’t sure if the agent is going to make it. Who is running this place and why isn’t there any accountability?! @BellGardens WTF IS THIS?! UNACCEPTABLE!! They also offer picture services online and as you’re walking in they have a sign saying they don’t take pictures to call a specific person in bellgardens to take it.
