Public Testimony

Dickey reports MyNYCHA app glitches and disappearing ticket numbers

New York City Council · Sep 22, 2026 · starts 0:23:56 · 1 min 31 sec

Dickey says the app glitches and sometimes does not provide a work order number, while staff later tell her the number no longer exists. She says tickets are closed unexpectedly and residents do not know when workers will come.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

Also, I would like to say there needs to be a better system because they say in the app, but when you go in there, it's like app glitches.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

And sometimes you're not even able to like get the order number, the work order number.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

And then when you go and try to read it, repeat the order number to them, they tell you that no longer exists.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

And it's like, it's really frustrating because you sit in here.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

And you don't know when somebody's going to come.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

And then when you're expecting somebody to come, next thing you know, the ticket is closed.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

So my experience with work orders are very like half of the time I'm unsuccessful and I'm left just to manage without.

Chris Banks

Does that conclude your testimony?

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

Yes, I hope something can be fixed about this.

Member of the Public - Patricia Dickey

And like I said, I just really wish it was something better that we can do than to have tickets just keep piling up and no work to be done.

Chris Banks

All right.
