Ugh, I feel your pain! I was in the same boat last year. Have you tried calling them? It's a nightmare to get through, but it's worth a shot.

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 online account? Sometimes they post updates there that don't get sent out as notifications.

This is ridiculous. The system is so broken. We pay into this and then can't even access it when we need it. 🤬

Here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 2. Check your online account daily for updates. 3. Try calling first thing in the morning, right when they open. 4. If you can't get through, consider using a paid service like Claimyr to get on the phone with an agent. 5. Reach out to your local state representative. They often have liaisons who can help with EDD issues. 6. If you're really in a bind, look into emergency assistance programs in your area for help with bills. 7. Don't give up! Keep pushing until you get answers. Hang in there. The system sucks, but you'll get through this!

have u tried faxing them? I know it sounds old school but I got a response within a week after I faxed my info

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. The waiting game is awful. Sending positive vibes your way! ❤️
