EDD Continued Payments Delayed - Anyone Else Experiencing Issues?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Haven't seen a payment in weeks. The system is so broken, it's ridiculous. 🤬

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. Check out this video: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Here's what I've learned about continued payments after dealing with this for months: • Make sure you're certifying for benefits every two weeks without fail • Double-check that your contact info is up to date in the system • If you've had any change in income, report it immediately • Keep an eye out for any notices or requests for additional info • If payments stop, there's usually a specific reason - could be identity verification, eligibility issues, or a simple glitch • Document everything - dates you certified, any communications you receive, etc. If you've done all this and still no payments, you might have to bite the bullet and try to get through on the phone. It sucks, but sometimes it's the only way to resolve issues.

have you checked your spam folder? sometimes the notifications end up there 🤔

I swear, dealing with unemployment is a full-time job itself. The irony is killing me. 💀

Guys, I heard they're implementing a new system next month that's supposed to streamline everything. Might be worth waiting it out if you can?

Anyone else notice that payments seem to come through faster if you certify right at midnight when the system updates? Might be confirmation bias, but it's worked for me the last few times.
