Unpopular opinion: maybe we should just be grateful we have unemployment benefits at all? Some countries don't even have this safety net.
Bruh, just because others have it worse doesn't mean we can't expect better. We pay into this system!
👆 This. We shouldn't settle for a broken system just because it exists.
Plot twist: what if all the 'real' agents quit and now it's just an army of clueless call center workers? 🤔😂
lmao wouldn't even be surprised at this point 💀
OMG I'm in the exact same boat! Been trying to sort out my maternity leave for weeks. This system is a nightmare ðŸ˜
Ugh, I'm sorry you're dealing with this too! Wanna be EDD struggle buddies? 😅
This happened to me last year. Turns out they had my old address on file even tho I updated it online. Double check everything!
I tried that last month. Waited 4 hours only to be told I needed to call the main line anyway. Total waste of time 😑
PRO TIP: If you can prove the overpayment wasn't your fault, you can request a waiver. Google 'EDD overpayment waiver' for the form
Oh wow, I didn't know about this! Definitely gonna look into it, thanks!

Pro tip: ALWAYS appeal. Like 40% of appeals get approved just because EDD doesn't show up to the hearing. Worth a shot!

idk if this helps but when I had an overpayment issue I wrote a hardship letter explaining why I couldn't pay it back. They ended up waiving half of it. Worth a try maybe?
