Here's what I would do in your situation: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all missed payments, attempts to contact, etc. 2. Send a formal demand letter via certified mail. This creates a paper trail. 3. If they still don't respond, file a wage claim with your state's labor department. 4. Consider finding a new job if possible. An employer who can't pay on time is often in financial trouble. 5. If the amount owed is significant, consult with an employment lawyer. Remember, it's your right to be paid on time for your work. Don't let them take advantage of you!

have u tried blowing up their social media? sometimes public shaming works wonders 😈

Has anyone tried contacting their local representative about EDD issues? I've heard some people have had success going that route when they can't get anywhere with EDD directly.

Just a heads up, if you do end up having to repay, make sure you get documentation of everything. I paid mine off and then six months later they tried to say I still owed. Thank god I kept all my receipts!

Has anyone tried contacting their local assembly member or state senator for help? I've heard they can sometimes intervene on your behalf with EDD.

This is why I always make copies of everything I send to EDD. You never know when they're gonna mess something up. 🤦‍♂️

Pro tip: While dealing with ID.me issues, don't forget about your SDI application deadline! You only have 49 days from the date your disability begins to file your claim. Don't let the ID.me problem make you miss out on your benefits!

Have you tried contacting EDD directly about this? Sometimes they can help with ID.me issues or provide alternative verification methods.

lol welcome to the club. We're all in the same sinking boat here 🚢💸

Have you checked if there's been any recent changes to unemployment policies? Sometimes delays happen when they update the system or change requirements.

Here's what I've learned from dealing with the benefits system for the past year: 1. Always certify as early as possible on your certification day. 2. Double-check all your answers before submitting. 3. If you don't receive payment within 3 business days, start calling. 4. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 5. Use the online portal to send messages - sometimes they respond faster there. 6. If all else fails, contact your local representative or the ombudsman. Hang in there, OP. The system sucks, but persistence usually pays off eventually.

lol welcome to the club. get comfy, you might be here a while 😅

guys im in the same boat.its so frustrating. ive been trying to get my claim processed for weeks now. feels like im just shouting into the void

Has anyone tried using one of those disability advocates? I've heard they can help navigate the system, but I'm not sure if it's worth the cost.

Have you checked your claim status online? Sometimes it updates there before you actually receive the payment.

sending good vibes your way, OP! 💕 This process is stressful but you'll get through it. Don't forget to take care of yourself while you wait!

I've been dealing with this issue for MONTHS. Here's what I've learned: • Persistence is key. Keep calling, even if it seems hopeless. • Use the online portal as much as possible for simple issues. • Document everything. Write down who you talked to, when, and what they said. • If you get through, ask for a direct number or extension for follow-ups. • Consider reaching out to your local representative. They can sometimes help. • Be polite to the agents when you do get through. They're overwhelmed too. • If all else fails, that Claimyr service others mentioned might be worth a shot. Stay strong, everyone. We're all in this together!

Anyone else feel like were living in a dystopian novel? "The year is 2023, and citizens must battle an AI phone system for basic services" 🤖☎️

lol welcome to the wonderful world of EDD 🤡 where nothing works and everyones confused

Have you checked if the fax number is correct? I once spent days trying to fax to a wrong number 🤦‍♂️
