To all those having trouble reaching a human at California Unemployment. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI
I've been dealing with EDD hold times for months now. From my experience, it really varies - sometimes 30 minutes, sometimes 4+ hours. The key is to call right when they open at 8am. I've also found that calling on Tuesday or Wednesday gives you better chances than Monday or Friday. Hang in there, it's frustrating but eventually you'll get through!
@Zara Ahmed Thanks for the tip about calling right at 8am! I m'new to dealing with EDD and have been struggling to get through. Do you have any other advice for first-time callers? I ve'been trying for weeks with no luck and getting really discouraged. Also wondering if there s'a specific number that works better than others?
