How to update EDD direct deposit info ASAP? Need help!

I found a way to solve EDD direct deposit update issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkvomUPrbOg

I just went through this last month. It's a pain, but here's what worked for me: 1. Call the EDD number as soon as they open (8 AM I think?) 2. When you get the automated system, press 1 for English, then 1 for claim questions, then 2 for payment info 3. You'll probably have to wait on hold for a while, but stay patient 4. When you get a rep, just tell them you need to update your direct deposit info 5. They'll ask for your new account and routing numbers, so have those ready Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

I found a way to get someone on the phone fast. 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

am i the only 1 who thinks its ridiculous we have to jump through all these hoops just to update our bank info? 🤡 edd needs to get their act together fr

Has anyone tried updating this info online? I thought I saw an option for it in my account settings, but now I can't find it.

Quick tip: When you do get through, ask them to confirm your new info by reading it back to you. I didn't do this and they somehow got my routing number wrong. Took another week to fix 😫

Anyone know if changing banks will delay payments? I'm switching from Wells Fargo to a local credit union.

pro tip: if u cant get thru on the main line, try calling one of the foreign language lines and then ask to be transfered to an english speaker. sometimes works like a charm 😉
