EDD Account Login Issues & Switching to Check Payments - Need Advice!

I found a way to solve EDD login and claim issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJkRtqQYInU

Ugh, EDD is such a nightmare to deal with. I've been there, buddy. Here's what I'd suggest: • For the login issues, try the 'Forgot Username/Password' option on the EDD website. If that doesn't work, you'll have to call them. • When you get through, explain that you're calling on behalf of your mom. They might ask for her permission to speak with you. • Ask for a claim status update and if any documents are needed. • For switching to check payments, just ask them directly. They can usually do it over the phone. Good luck! The hold times are brutal, so be prepared to wait.

lol good luck getting through to an actual person. i've been trying for weeks 🤡

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: if u cant log in online, sometimes its cuz the system is down. Try again in a few hours or the next day. EDD's website is about as reliable as a chocolate teapot 🍫☕

Anyone else think its ridiculous that we have to jump through so many hoops just to get basic help? The system is broken af 😤

Hey OP, when you do get through, make sure to ask if theres any pending stuff on the account. Sometimes they dont tell u unless you ask specifically. Also, switching to checks might take a few weeks to process, so plan accordingly!
