Filed weeks ago, still no money from EDD. What can I do?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. It's been over a month for me and still nothing. The system is so broken 😡

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/DOLxZQb92wM

Have you checked your claim status online? Sometimes there's info there about why it's delayed.

This happened to me too. Turns out they needed additional verification and never told me 🙄 Check your spam folder for any emails from them!

The whole system is a joke. They expect us to live on air while they take their sweet time? 🤬

Here's what I've learned after dealing with this for months: 1. Keep calling. It sucks, but persistence pays off. 2. Check your online account daily for updates. 3. Make sure all your docs are in order and uploaded. 4. If you can, reach out to your local representative. They sometimes can help. 5. Document everything - dates you called, who you spoke to, etc. 6. Join Facebook groups for your state's unemployment. They often have good tips. 7. Be patient (I know, easier said than done). Hang in there, OP. It's a frustrating process, but you'll get through it.

have u tried faxing ur docs? sounds old school but it worked for me lol

Anyone else feel like they're playing unemployment roulette? 🎰 Never know if you're gonna hit the jackpot (aka actually get paid) or lose it all 😅
