3 months no EDD disability payment, can't reach anyone. Help!

I found a way to solve disability payment delays quickly, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93qLAfJofaA

Ugh, I feel your pain. I was in the same boat last year. It took me almost 4 months to get my first payment. The system is so broken 😤

Have you tried contacting your local representative? Sometimes they can help speed things up. Worth a shot!

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Pro tip: Try calling right when they open. I've had better luck getting through early in the morning.

Here's what worked for me: • Gather all your documents (claim number, ID, etc) before calling • Use the online portal to check your claim status first • If you can't get through on the main line, try the employer line (they sometimes help) • Be persistent and call every day • If all else fails, contact your state representative Hang in there, OP. I know it's frustrating, but don't give up!

have u tried faxing them? sometimes old school methods work better with these dinosaur agencies lol

I'm on month 5 of waiting. This whole system is a joke. 🤡

Anyone else notice that their online system is always "under maintenance" when you actually need to use it? 🙄

Hot take: maybe if we all showed up at their office in person, they'd have to deal with us 🤔
