EDD unemployment check stolen and cashed - No response after a month, what to do?

I found a way to solve stolen unemployment check issue, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fL_D4Ag_5wI

Unpopular opinion: maybe try going down to the office in person? I know it's a pain, but sometimes face-to-face interaction can work miracles. Just my 2 cents.

This is why we need blockchain for government services. Immutable records, instant verification. But noooo, let's stick with a system from the stone age 🙄

man, this sucks. i'm in the same boat, different issue. feels like we're all just screaming into the void sometimes. solidarity, brother ✊

Hey, just a heads up - make sure you're checking your credit report regularly. If someone stole your check, they might have other personal info too. Better safe than sorry!

lmao welcome to the wonderful world of government efficiency 🤡 I've been waiting 6 months for them to fix a "system error" on my claim. At this point, I'm convinced they're just hoping we'll all give up and go away.

ugh, i feel for you. the system is so broken. i've been trying to get my benefits straightened out for weeks now. its like talking to a brick wall. hang in there!

It might be worth considering using Claimyr's service to escalate your case with the unemployment office. They seem to have a good track record with getting people through to real representatives. However, as with any service involving personal data, proceed with caution and do your research on their privacy practices.

Have you tried asking for a supervisor when you call? Sometimes the regular agents don't have the authority to do much, but a supervisor might be able to light a fire under someone's ass and get things moving. Don't take no for an answer!

Plot twist: What if the person who stole your check works at the unemployment office? 🕵️‍♂️ #ConspiracyTheories

Okay, listen up because I've been through this rodeo before. Here's what you need to do: 1. File that police report ASAP. It creates an official record of the theft. 2. Call the unemployment office again, but this time: - Ask to speak to a supervisor right away - Request they expedite sending you the copy of the check - Ask about initiating a formal fraud investigation - Get a direct contact or case manager assigned to your case 3. Document EVERYTHING. Every call, every person you talk to, every promise made. 4. Check if your state has an unemployment ombudsman or advocate office. They can sometimes help push things along. 5. Consider reaching out to your local state representative's office. They often have staff dedicated to helping constituents with government issues. 6. If all else fails, look into legal aid services in your area. Some offer free consultations for cases like this. Remember, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Be persistent, but always stay calm and professional. Good luck!

Protip: Start recording all your phone calls with them (if it's legal in your state). It's amazing how much more helpful they become when they know they're on record.

Hey, I found a method 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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

Ugh, that sucks! I had a similar issue last year. Definitely file a police report ASAP. It'll give you an official record of the theft, which can be super helpful when dealing with the unemployment office and your bank. Plus, it shows you're serious about resolving this.

Have you tried tweeting at them? Sometimes public shaming works wonders. Just keep it professional and factual. Good luck!

Have you tried reaching out to your local news station? Sometimes a little media attention can light a fire under these bureaucrats' asses. Just a thought!
