About 7 years ago, 311 was the bee's knees in customer service. Everyone was super cheerful and happy to help and made sure you were satisfied before they ended the call.

Now, sometimes I still get that same type of person but they're more of a go-between. You have a complaint about your building? Here's the appropriate website. Go here and file your claim. You need to know the answer to something related to the DEP? Here's their number. Call them.
