EDD SDI payments suddenly stopped after Sept 24 - no response for over a month. Help!
Hey everyone, I'm in a really frustrating situation with my EDD payments. They just stopped coming after September 24th, and I've been without benefits for over a month now. I've tried calling multiple times but can't get through to anyone. My paperwork is all up to date, and my doctor's office even confirmed they've sent everything needed. Has anyone else experienced this sudden stop in payments? Any advice on how to get this resolved?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat! My payments stopped in October and I've been pulling my hair out trying to get answers. It's like they just ghosted us or something š»

ā¢This is getting ridiculous. How are we supposed to survive when they just cut us off without warning?

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone! I used this site called claimyr.com - it's a calling tool that dials through the phone menu, stays on hold, and then connects you when a live agent picks up. It costs $20, but it worked for me. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

ā¢Sounds too good to be true. Has anyone else tried this?

ā¢$20 just to talk to someone? That's highway robbery!

ā¢I get the skepticism, but after weeks of trying, it was worth it for me. Got my issue resolved in one call.

ā¢How long did you have to wait once it connected you?

ā¢Only about 5 minutes. Way better than the hours I wasted before!

Have you tried reaching out to your local assembly member's office? They can sometimes help push things through with EDD. Worth a shot!

This happened to me last year. Turns out there was a glitch in their system that flagged a bunch of accounts for no reason. Keep calling and eventually you'll get through to someone who can fix it. It's a pain, but persistence is key!

ā¢A glitch? Seriously? You'd think they'd have better systems in place by now š¤¦āāļø

Here's what I've learned from dealing with EDD for the past year: ⢠Always keep copies of EVERYTHING you submit ⢠Use their online portal to send messages - it creates a paper trail ⢠If you can't get through on the phone, try calling right when they open or just before closing ⢠Check your spam folder regularly - sometimes important emails end up there ⢠If all else fails, contact your state representative or senator's office Hang in there, OP. It's a broken system, but don't give up!

Plot twist: EDD is actually run by squirrels and they're hoarding all our nuts for winter šæļøš°

I'm starting to think we need to organize some kind of protest or something. This is happening to way too many people and it's not okay!

ā¢I'm in! Maybe if we make enough noise, they'll actually do something about it.

ā¢Count me in too. We could start with a social media campaign to raise awareness.

Has anyone tried faxing their documents? I know it sounds ancient, but I've heard it can sometimes get faster results than online submissions.
