Missed EDD interview - how to reschedule when can't reach anyone?

Ugh, been there done that. It's such a pain to get through to them. Have you tried calling right when they open? Sometimes that works for me.

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

Here's what you need to do: 1. Keep trying to call. Be persistent. 2. Document everything. Write down when you call, who you speak to (if anyone), and what they say. 3. Send an email explaining your situation. Keep it brief and to the point. 4. Check your online account regularly for any updates or messages. 5. If all else fails, contact your local representative. They can sometimes help push things through. Missing an interview isn't the end of the world, but you need to show you're making a genuine effort to rectify the situation. Good luck!

lol welcome to the club 🤡 EDD is a joke these days

Have you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes tweeting at them or messaging on Facebook can get a response.

Ive been in the same boat. Missed my interview cuz my kid got sick. took me 3 weeks to get it rescheduled but I finally did. Don't give up!

This whole system is broken af. Why can't they just have a simple online rescheduling tool? It's 2023 ffs 🤦‍♂️

Anyone know if there's a penalty for missing the interview? Like, do they reduce your benefits or something?
