Review of Consulate General of France in...

To start with the recording indicate the consulate hours 2PM to 5PM however until 2:40PM you do not get any kind of answer. The phone will ring between 10 to 15 times and still nobody will answer. It almost seem like a competition to "who will be annoyed enough by the rings to pick up the phone" The staff is for most of them very RUDE and just reconfirm the reputation of French people being rude. The receptionists beside being rude do not give you the right information and always seem "way too busy to help you". You get the general feeling that you are annoying them by coming there. It is an negative experience to go there and the French community to whom I belong avoid it as much as possible. You would think that representing France in New-York City the general attitude would be polite, with a certain class and welcoming but that is far from it.
