EDD card fraud: Money stolen, not fully refunded. Help!
Hey everyone, I'm freaking out right now. Someone took money off my EDD card without my permission. I didn't get all the money back that was stolen. Has anyone else dealt with this? What should I do?

Ugh, that sucks man. I've been there. First thing you gotta do is call EDD and report the fraud. They should be able to help you get your money back.

Pro tip: call right when they open. You might have to try a few days in a row, but it's the best way to get through.

This happened to me last year. It's a nightmare to deal with, but don't give up! Here's what you need to do: 1. Report the fraud to EDD immediately 2. File a police report 3. Contact Bank of America (they handle EDD cards) and dispute the charges 4. Keep all your documentation 5. Be prepared to follow up... a lot It took me about 3 months, but I eventually got all my money back. Stay persistent!

Oh yeah, it was a total pain. I probably called 50+ times before I got through. But once I did, they were actually pretty helpful.

This is why I always transfer my EDD money to my personal bank account ASAP. Those cards are not secure at all.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone at EDD. 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/Ize0EkN4HDI

Sounds too good to be true. Is this legit?

I was skeptical at first too, but I tried it and it actually worked. Saved me hours of frustration.

I get it, but for me it was worth it. Time is money, and I was wasting so much time trying to get through on my own.

Have you tried reaching out to your local state representative? Sometimes they can help push things along with EDD.

This is why we need blockchain technology for government benefits. It would be so much more secure.

You clearly don't understand the potential. Educate yourself.
