EDD claim: Wrong end date & only paid for 4 days - Help!

Ugh, been there done that. The system is so confusing! When you call, make sure you have all your correct dates ready. Be super clear about the mistake and ask them to walk you through the correction process. As for the payment, definitely ask for a breakdown of how they calculated it. Sometimes they mess up the math 🙄

I found a way to actually 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/DOLxZQb92wM

Listen up, here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Write down the correct end date and why it needs to be changed. 2. Calculate the exact number of days you should be paid for. 3. When you call, ask to speak with a tier 2 specialist. They have more authority to make changes. 4. Be polite but firm. Don't hang up until you have a clear resolution. 5. Get a confirmation number or email for any changes made. 6. Follow up in writing through your online account or by mail. Remember, persistence is key. Don't let them brush you off. Good luck!

have you tried checking your online account? sometimes you can make changes there without calling

Bruh, EDD is straight up playing games with our lives 😤 I've been trying to fix my claim for WEEKS. This system is broken af

Quick question - did you certify for those 4 days separately? Sometimes partial weeks can mess up the system.

Pro tip: if you can't get through on the main line, try calling right when they open or just before they close. Sometimes you can catch em off guard lol

Been in a similar situation before! The wrong end date thing is actually pretty common - when you get through to someone, just explain it was an input error and have your correct dates ready. For the 4-day payment issue, that could be because they're only counting weekdays or there might be a waiting period applied. Ask them to show you exactly how they calculated it and if there are any penalties or waiting periods affecting your payment. Also, don't be afraid to ask for a supervisor if the first person can't help - sometimes you need someone with more system access to fix date issues.
