I just went through this last month. Make sure you have all your documents ready explaining why it was closed in the first place. They'll want to know what's changed since then. Good luck!

It took about 2 weeks for me, but I've heard it can vary. Just keep checking your online account for updates.

Ugh, reopening a claim is such a headache. I swear they make it difficult on purpose. 🙄

Hey, I found a way to actually 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/0UZGuPWGErg

Sounds too good to be true. Has anyone else tried this?

20 bucks? Idk man, seems kinda steep just to talk to someone...

I get the skepticism, but it seriously saved me hours of frustration. Worth every penny imo.

How long did you have to wait after using the service?

Only about 30 minutes! Way better than the hours I spent trying to get through on my own.

Make sure you check your language settings on the website. I had issues because mine was set to Spanish by mistake lol

Has anyone else noticed that the system seems to be extra glitchy lately? I tried reopening my claim online and it kept crashing 😤

Yep, same here. I think they're doing some updates or something. Try early in the morning, it worked better for me then.

Pro tip: If you're reopening due to COVID-related reasons, make sure to mention that specifically. There are special provisions in place and it might speed up the process.
