EDD Unemployment: Missed interview call, payment concerns - What to do?

Thank you so much for this detailed advice! I'll definitely try reaching out to my state rep if I can't get through soon.

This is solid advice. I'd add: keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. It could come in handy if there's a dispute later.

Also, sometimes social media can be a useful tool. A tweet or a post can sometimes get things moving.

I feel your pain, I've been stuck in that loop too. It's like they don't want to help us out.

I didn't even know they had a chatbot! I'll definitely check that out, thanks for the tip!

The chatbot is surprisingly helpful for basic inquiries. It's worth a try!

Sounds sketchy. Is it legit? $20 seems steep just to make a phone call.

Totally get the skepticism, but it's 100% legit. I was desperate and took the chance. Saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny IMO.

How long did it take to get through? I'm considering trying this out.

Yeah, I've tried calling but I can never get through. It's like hitting a brick wall every time. 😫

Pro tip: call right when they open. Like, set an alarm and everything. It's still a pain, but your chances are way better.

Another tip is to use a different phone or number. Sometimes that works for me.

About damn time! Do you have a link to more info about this bill?

Here's a link to the proposed bill: [insert fake URL]. It's still in early stages, but looks promising!

It's great to see some potential improvements on the horizon, we definitely need them.

🤣🤣🤣 Ain't that the truth! It's like trying to nail jello to a wall.

Feels that way for sure. I'm starting to think I have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting this call 😅

Good idea, I'll take a look. Fingers crossed there's some update!

Checking online is always a good first step. You never know, there might be some information there.

Bruh, have you seen the lines at those places? You'd have better luck storming area 51 💀

I actually did this last month. Took all day, but I finally got my issue resolved. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

If you do decide to go, make sure to take snacks and something to keep you entertained!

Nah, hamsters would be more efficient. My money's on a room full of sloths 🦥

You might be onto something... explains why they're always "running" behind 😂

Actually, more like a bunch of old computers with dust bunnies. 😂

Oh no, that sounds awful! I hope it doesn't take that long for me. Sending good vibes your way 🙏

Don't give up! Have you tried contacting your local news station? Sometimes public pressure can work wonders.

It's frustrating but hang in there. Sometimes it just takes finding the right person to talk to.
