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 struggling with the same issue - it's so frustrating when you can't get through to anyone! I've tried calling multiple times but always get the busy signal or automated system that hangs up. Has anyone had success with any specific times of day that work better for getting through? I'm worried about my status and really need to speak with someone soon.
@Jade Lopez I completely understand your frustration! I ve'been in the same boat trying to reach customer service. From what I ve'learned from others in this community, calling right when they open 8 (AM seems) to give you the best chance. Also, some people have had success using services like Claimyr that others mentioned above - they handle the calling and waiting for you. The key is persistence and trying multiple approaches. Don t'give up! Your is important and you deserve to get the help you need.
I know how incredibly frustrating this is - I went through the same thing for weeks! The automated system would just hang up on me constantly. What finally worked for me was calling at exactly 8:01 AM and using the "1-2-1" option sequence when the automated menu starts. Also, don't hang up if you get put on hold - even if it's for hours. I waited 3.5 hours once but finally got through to a real person who was able to help me with my claim. Keep trying different times throughout the day too - I've heard some people have luck around 12 PM or 2 PM when call volume might be slightly lower. Stay persistent!
@Luca Romano Thank you so much for sharing those specific details! The 1-2-1 "sequence" tip is really helpful - I hadn t'heard about that specific option before. I m'definitely going to try calling at 8:01 AM sharp tomorrow and use that sequence. It s'encouraging to hear that persistence really does pay off, even if it means waiting for hours. I ve'been getting discouraged after just 30-45 minutes of trying, but your experience shows it s'worth sticking with it. Did you notice any difference in wait times on certain days of the week? I m'wondering if calling on a Tuesday or Wednesday might be better than Mondays when everyone is probably trying to call.
