Need help. I am missing a edd check which I contacted them and reported and I had to complete form DE731 'Declaration Issuance of Replacement check' which was returned to them in September. Still nothing heard from them 6 weeks later. The only activity I see on my end is the payment online went from 'Outstanding' to 'Paid'... so I used another 20 buck on Oct 21 to contact edd asking fir an update and was informed my check was issued was just printed and  mailed that day.. yay.... right? ....wrong! ... 3 weeks later still waiting..... ugh..... now I paid claimyr for 3rd time on the same missing check and edd drops the call after 2 rings.... and when I ask claimyr to reattpt they tell me that my 10 free attempts expired? Wtf..... I just ordered it today Grrrrr

I found a way to solve EDD check delays and issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4GzdbWnRA8

Outside edd frustrations, this has been my 5th time using claimyr since January and they have come thru repeatedly over and over. I continue to refer to friends! Worth it 👌

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'm so sorry you're going through this frustrating experience with EDD! Having to pay multiple times just to get information about your missing check is absolutely ridiculous. The fact that they told you the replacement check was printed and mailed on Oct 21st but you still haven't received it after 3 weeks is unacceptable. Have you tried contacting your local assembly member's office? They often have staff dedicated to helping constituents with EDD issues and can sometimes get faster responses than calling directly. Also, you might want to file a complaint with the EDD ombudsman if you haven't already. Keep documenting everything - dates, times, who you spoke with, and what they told you. This paper trail could be important if you need to escalate further. Hang in there!
