am i the only 1 who thinks its ridiculous we have to jump through so many hoops just to update our info? the whole system needs an overhaul smh

Whatever you do, DON'T try to update it online without talking to someone first. I did that and it locked me out of my account for weeks. Had to send a million emails to get it fixed.

Hey OP, sorry youre dealing with this. Here's what I'd recommend: • Keep trying to reach HR, but also loop in your direct supervisor • Check your spam folder for any emails from payroll • Review your contract or employee handbook for payment terms • If it's been more than a few days past your normal pay date, consider sending a formal written request for your wages • Document all communication attempts • If the delay is causing financial hardship, be sure to communicate that clearly • As a last resort, you may need to consult with an employment lawyer or contact your state's labor board Hope this helps! Keep us updated on how it goes.

idk man, maybe its time to start looking for a new job? A company that cant get payroll right is a 🚩🚩🚩

Am I the only one who thinks its ridiculous that we have to jump through so many hoops just to update our basic info? The EDD system is so outdated smh

Quick question - are you changing your name due to marriage or divorce? If it's marriage, congrats! 🎉 If it's divorce, hang in there, it gets better! ❤️

I swear, dealing with EDD is like trying to nail jello to a wall. Been at it for months and still no resolution. Anyone else feel like theyre just throwing darts in the dark?

Pro tip: if you're having trouble, try reaching out to your local assemblyperson or state senator. Their office can sometimes cut through the red tape and get answers from EDD faster than we can on our own.

Here's what I've learned after dealing with SDI for the past 6 months: 1. Persistence is key. Keep calling, emailing, and trying different methods. 2. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 3. Use social media. Sometimes tweeting at them can get a response. 4. Check your claim status online regularly. 5. Make sure all your paperwork is in order and up to date. 6. Consider reaching out to your local representatives for help. 7. Join Facebook groups or forums dedicated to SDI issues for more tips and support. Hang in there, OP. It's a frustrating process, but don't give up!

have u tried faxing them? i know it sounds old school but i heard it can work sometimes lol

lol welcome to the SDI hellscape. grab a seat, we'll be here a while 💀

Has anyone had any luck contacting their state representative about this issue? I'm thinking of reaching out to mine.

I heard they're updating the phone system soon. Maybe that'll help? 🤞

guys i finaly got through yesterday after trying for 2 weeks straight. dont give up!

OP, how long has your claim been active? I've heard they sometimes do weird partial payments when you're nearing the end of your benefit year.

lmao welcome to the wonderful world of EDD where the rules are made up and the payments don't matter 🤡

Pro tip: if you can't get through on the main line, try calling right when they open. I've had better luck that way.

Ive been dealing with this for MONTHS. at this point im ready to give up and live in the woods or smthn

This might sound weird, but check if your bank is holding the deposit. My friend had this issue where the payment was sent but her bank flagged it for some reason. Worth a shot! 🤷‍♂️

OP, whatever you do, DON'T GIVE UP! The system is designed to wear you down. Keep calling, keep checking your account, and don't let them off the hook. You're entitled to your benefits!
