Gross incompetence is the only way to describe Lori’s effort today. I was in line for my Noon passport appointment scheduled 3 weeks prior when she asked “who’s in line for a passport appt” at 1204. She then proceeded to tell me that my 5 min grace period was up and refused to explain any documentation that was needed or assist with rescheduling. I asked how is it possible at 1204 my 5 min grace period was expired? Her answer was: “I don’t know what time you got in line”… Despite standing in line already and watching me walk in the door??? What a miserable experience and miserable person. Do not come to this location for a passport - pick literally any other location in Nashville or surrounding areas if you need to renew or get a new passport.

Went to this location, which is close to work, to submit my first ever passport. I had a couple of issues filling out to form( blue ink instead of black and wrong amount on payment money order), the clerk Deb was extremely helpful and patient with me, straightening everything out, doing a fairly good photo, and giving me a more confident feeling that the process will go well.

You can NEVER get through on the phone, then it just goes to a busy tone. They can't handle simple tasks. Sometimes they are friendly, but asking for your original receipt back, they refuse. If you even ask to get a copy of the receipt, or take a photo on your phone, they also refuse. They go out of their way to be rude and unhelpful. Living up to the stereotype of USPS. Way to go Acklen...

Came on a Monday morning expecting some sort of chaos but both tellers were cheerful, kind, helpful and efficient. 10/10 would return
