Ugh, I feel your pain! The EDD website is such a nightmare. Have you tried using the 'Forgot Password' link on the login page? Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. 🤷♂️

Yeah, I tried that but it keeps giving me an error. It's like the system doesn't even recognize my account exists!

Same here! I swear the EDD website is held together with duct tape and prayers 😂

lol true that. Maybe try clearing your browser cache and cookies? Sometimes that helps with weird website issues.

I had the same issue last month. What worked for me was calling their tech support line. It took forever to get through, but they were able to reset it on their end.

Thanks for the tip! Do you happen to remember the number you called?

I think it was 1-800-300-5616, but double-check on the EDD website to make sure. Good luck!

Hey guys, I found a method that actually works 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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Sounds too good to be true. Is this legit? Anyone else tried it?

$20? That's kinda steep just to talk to someone...

I get the skepticism, but it seriously saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny imho.

Can confirm, I used it last week and it worked like a charm. Beats sitting on hold for 3 hours!

Pro tip: Try resetting your password early in the morning or late at night. The system seems to work better when there's less traffic. Also, make sure you're using a secure internet connection – sometimes public WiFi can cause issues with government websites.

This might sound crazy, but have you tried using a different browser? I couldn't reset mine using Chrome, but it worked fine on Firefox. EDD's website is weirdly picky sometimes.

Huh, I haven't thought of that. I'll give it a shot, thanks!

Okay, listen up folks. I've been dealing with EDD for years, and I've learned a few tricks. Here's what you need to do to reset your password: 1. Clear your browser cache and cookies. 2. Use a private/incognito browsing window. 3. Try early morning (like 5-6 AM) when the system is less busy. 4. If the online reset doesn't work, call 1-800-300-5616. 5. When calling, use the Spanish option and then ask for English – sometimes this gets you through faster. 6. If all else fails, try contacting your local assemblyperson's office. They often have direct lines to EDD. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up!

Yep, it does! Just be polite when you get an agent – they're usually happy to help in English.

Am I the only one who thinks its ridiculous that we have to jump through all these hoops just to reset a password? The whole system needs an overhaul smh
