EDD Payment Delay: How to Handle Notification and Get Help?

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Got a payment delay notification last week. It's so frustrating! Have you tried calling them? I've been trying for days but can't get through.

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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI

Here's what you need to do to resolve payment delays: 1. Check your UI Online account for any pending tasks or notifications 2. Make sure all your certifications are up to date 3. Double-check that you've submitted all required documents 4. If everything looks good on your end, it's probably an issue on EDD's side 5. Try to contact them through UI Online messaging system 6. If that doesn't work, you'll need to call them (good luck with that 🙄) Remember, patience is key. Sometimes these delays resolve themselves in a few days. If it goes on for more than a week, then definitely try to get in touch with a rep.

have you tried contacting your local assembly member? they can sometimes help speed things up with EDD

Payment delays are the worst 😡 I had one last month and it turned out to be a glitch in their system. Keep pestering them until it's fixed!

idk why they make this process so complicated. its like they WANT us to fail. smh

Has anyone tried reaching out to EDD on social media? I've heard some people have had luck getting responses that way.
