Missed EDD call - How to get another callback for payment issue?

Ugh, that sucks! I've been there before. Have you tried calling them back? Sometimes if you explain the situation, they might be able to reschedule the call.

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

The EDD system is such a joke. They expect us to be available 24/7 but can't even manage to keep their phone lines open. 🤡

Here's what you need to do: 1. Keep calling EDD persistently. Use multiple phones if possible. 2. Check your online account for any messages or updates. 3. If you have a UI Online account, try sending them a message through there. 4. Consider reaching out to your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes help expedite EDD issues. 5. Document everything - dates, times of calls, who you spoke to. 6. If all else fails, you might want to try that calling service someone mentioned earlier. Don't give up! The system is frustrating, but persistence usually pays off.

have u tried faxing them? i know it sounds old school but sometimes it works lol

I feel your pain, OP. The EDD is like trying to nail jello to a wall. Keep at it and don't let them wear you down!

I had a similar issue last month when I missed their callback. What worked for me was logging into my EDD account online and looking for a "Contact EDD" or "Ask EDD" option where you can send a message explaining that you missed the call and need to reschedule. I also tried calling the 1-800-300-5616 number right at 8 AM when they open - it took about 30 tries but I finally got through. Don't lose hope, they will eventually connect with you again!
