EDD hasn't responded to my mailed ID verification after a week - what now?

Ugh, classic EDD. They're always slow af. I sent my docs in like a month ago and still crickets. 🦗 Hang in there, buddy.

Pro tip: keep ALL your receipts and tracking info. You might need it later if they claim they never received your docs. EDD's a mess rn.

I found a way to actually 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

Here's what I'd do: 1. Call EDD first thing in the morning, right when they open. Less wait time. 2. If that fails, try contacting your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes expedite things. 3. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact EDD. 4. Check your UI Online account regularly for any updates. 5. If it's been more than 10 business days, consider sending another set of documents. Remember, persistence is key with EDD. Don't give up!

have u checked ur spam folder? sometimes edd emails end up there lol

I swear EDD is run by sloths or something. 🦥 Took them 3 months to process my claim last year. The system is broken af.

Hey OP, quick question - did you send it to the right address? There are different addresses for different types of claims. Just wanna make sure you didn't strike out on a technicality.

Unpopular opinion: maybe we should cut EDD some slack? They're probably swamped with claims rn. Just saying... 🤷‍♂️

Guys, I heard theres a secret EDD phone number that actually works. Anyone know about this? 👀
