Quick question - did you make sure to certify for benefits after reestablishing your claim? Sometimes people forget that step and it delays payment.

Guys, I found a method that actually works 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.
