Dealing with the EDD can indeed be an arduous process due to their outdated systems and frequent glitches. While services like Claimyr have been effective for many in navigating the communication barriers with EDD by directly connecting users to customer service representatives, it's important to consider the cost and weigh it against your personal situation. Claimyr has received positive feedback from users who managed to resolve their issues more quickly than expected by using the service. However, for those who might be uncomfortable with spending the additional money, persistence with EDD through traditional means like calling and seeking help from local representatives can also yield results. Additionally, it's beneficial to explore all avenues such as trying different browsers, faxing documents, or even contacting your local assembly member to escalate your issue. These strategies, combined with patience and persistence, can help navigate the frustrating waters of dealing with EDD. Remember, while Claimyr can be a helpful tool, it's not the only solution, and sometimes a combination of tactics works best.

I've been in the same boat, my friend. Here's what worked for me: 1. Take screenshots of the error messages you're getting 2. Write down all the dates (when you first applied, when you tried to upload, etc.) 3. Keep trying to call EDD every day (I know, it sucks) 4. If you can't get through, try contacting your local assembly member's office. They can sometimes help push things through. 5. Check your spam folder for any EDD emails you might have missed Don't give up! The system is frustrating, but persistence pays off. Good luck!

Bruh, the EDD is a joke. I've been waiting 3 months for my claim to be processed. The whole system needs an overhaul.

Classic EDD... their system is always messed up. I'd suggest calling them directly, but good luck getting through. It's like trying to win the lottery 🙄

Pro tip: If you're having trouble uploading documents online, try using a different browser or even your phone. Sometimes the EDD site plays nice with certain setups and not others. Weird, but worth a shot!

Hang in there, OP! The EDD struggle is real, but you'll get through it. We're all in this together 💪

yall ever think about how much time we waste dealing with this bs? like, we could probably solve world hunger with all the collective hours spent on hold with EDD 🤔

Ugh, the EDD website is such a nightmare! I had a similar issue with uploading documents for my disability claim. Have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies? Sometimes that helps with weird glitches on government sites.

Update: I finally got through to someone at EDD! Turns out there was a glitch in their system that was preventing the upload button from showing up. They're fixing it on their end and told me to try again in 24-48 hours. Fingers crossed it works!

Has anyone else noticed that the EDD website always seems to crash right when you need it most? It's like they know... 👀

Have you tried faxing the birth certificate? I know it sounds like we're back in 1995, but sometimes the old school methods work when the website is being a pain.
