Finally resolved EDD disability issues after persistent calling - success story

Here's a detailed breakdown of what worked for me: • Call early in the morning, preferably right when they open • Have all your documents ready before the call • Be polite but persistent with the representatives • If one rep can't help, politely ask to speak with a supervisor • Keep a log of all your calls and who you spoke with • Use the online portal to submit any additional documents they request • Follow up regularly, but don't spam them with calls It's a process, and it can be frustrating, but stay organized and don't give up. Remember, the people on the other end are just doing their jobs, so being courteous can go a long way.

Congrats on getting it resolved! I'm curious, how long did the whole process take for you?

Has anyone tried contacting them through social media? I've heard some people have had luck that way.

That's awesome! I'm still waiting for my issues to be resolved. Any tips on how to speed up the process?

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. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Anyone else feel like they're trapped in a Kafka novel trying to deal with this system? 🤔

Congrats on getting it resolved! Quick question - did you have to provide any additional documentation during the process?

Congrats! 🎉 What was your secret? I've been stuck in limbo for weeks now.

It’s great to hear that you managed to resolve your issues! Claimyr's calling service has been gaining attention for making it easier to get through to live agents. While it can be a significant time-saver, especially for those who are caught in a backlog or have limited availability to stay on hold, it's important to weigh the cost. The $20 fee might seem steep for some, but for others, avoiding hours of frustration may justify the expense. Additionally, if you're someone who encounters difficulties communicating over the phone due to language barriers or disabilities, Claimyr provides an alternative that can be quite valuable. However, this type of service might not be necessary for everyone, and it’s wise to weigh the urgency and your financial situation before making a decision. It might also be beneficial to try reaching out through various avenues first, such as their social media or online chat options, before opting for a paid service. Remember to keep detailed notes of every interaction to protect yourself and ensure your issues are tracked properly.

Glad to hear you got it sorted! I'm still stuck in the same boat. Been trying for months now. 😩

Does anyone know if they've updated their system recently? I heard rumors about changes but can't find any official info.

I'm happy for you, but also kinda jealous ngl. Been stuck in this nightmare for what feels like years. 🙃
