SDI claim filed but no payment - impossible to reach anyone on phone. Help!

I found a way to solve disability claim payment delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPKrive357s

Ugh, I feel your pain. The disability claim process is a nightmare. I've been waiting for months and still nothing. It's like they want us to give up 🤬

I found a method 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 explaining it: https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI

Pro tip: Call right when they open. I managed to get through after trying this for a few days. You gotta be persistent!

Here's what I've learned after dealing with the disability claim process for the past few months: • Always double-check which number you're calling. Different issues have different departments. • Keep a log of every call you make, including date, time, and who you spoke to (if you get through). • Have all your paperwork ready before you call. They'll ask for claim numbers, dates, etc. • If you make a mistake, like choosing the wrong option, hang up and try again. Don't waste time on the wrong line. • Be polite but firm with the agents. They're overworked too, but you need to advocate for yourself. • If you're not getting anywhere, consider reaching out to your local state representative. They can sometimes intervene on your behalf. • Check your online account regularly for updates. Sometimes they update info there without notifying you. • Don't give up! It's frustrating, but persistence is key in this process. Hope this helps someone navigate this mess. Good luck to everyone dealing with this! 💪

have you tried faxing your claim? I know it sounds old school, but I've heard it can be faster than waiting on the phone

lmao good luck. I struck out so many times I just gave up and got a job at walmart 🤡

Has anyone tried using the online portal? I've heard mixed things about it working.
