guys, i think i figured it out. we need to sacrafice a goat under a full moon while chanting "edd plz" three times. works 60% of the time, everytime

Anyone else feel like we're all just clowns in the EDD circus? 🤡 Step right up, folks! Try your luck at the "Will I Ever Get My Benefits" game! 🎪

It's a crapshoot, honestly. Some people get their benefits within weeks, others wait months. Have you tried calling them? That's usually the best way to get answers.

Welcome to the club, buddy. I filed in May and still haven't seen a dime. The waiting game is brutal 😫

Here's what you need to do: 1. Keep calling. I know it sucks, but persistence pays off. 2. Check your online account daily for updates. 3. Make sure all your docs are in order. Any missing piece can delay things. 4. If you have a state rep, reach out to their office. Sometimes they can help push things along. 5. Document everything. Every call, every letter, every online update. Remember, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Don't give up!

Bruh, I feel you. It's like waiting for paint to dry, except the paint is money and it never actually dries 🙃

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I've been waiting since April. The system is completely overwhelmed. Hang in there, though. We're all in the same leaky boat 🚣‍♀️

Balancing the use of Claimyr can be an effective strategy, especially if you're struggling to get through to the EDD. While the $20 fee might seem steep to some, the time saved and the decreased frustration level can be well worth it. However, it's important to remember that Claimyr doesn't guarantee faster processing of your claim itself. It simply aids in connecting you with a live agent. Beyond using Claimyr, you could try other strategies like sending documents via fax, as some have mentioned, or even reaching out through social media channels, which sometimes get quicker responses. Regardless, double-checking all your documents and ensuring everything is in order is vital, as any missing information can further delay your benefits. Keep track of all communication as well since having a record can be useful if you need to escalate your case.

Have you guys heard about this new service that helps you get through to EDD? 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.

Has anyone tried faxing their documents? I know it sounds like stone age tech, but I've heard it can sometimes get faster results.

Have you checked your spam folder? Sometimes important EDD emails end up there. Just a thought!

lol welcome to EDD hell. grab a seat, we'll be here a while 🔥👹

Unpopular opinion: maybe we should all just give up and become YouTube influencers instead. Who needs unemployment when you can make millions unboxing toys, amirite? 🤣
