Need working TWC phone number - regular line always busy

I had the EXACT same problem last month! After trying for days, I found a service called Claimyr that got me through to TWC in about 20 minutes. It basically keeps calling for you until it gets through, then connects you. Their website is claimyr.com and they have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U?si=kNxmh025COIlIzKh\n\nIt was such a relief to finally talk to someone after banging my head against the wall for a week. The agent helped me figure out that my ID.me verification hadn't properly linked to my TWC account.

Thanks for the suggestion! Did you have to give them any personal info? I'm always cautious about that kind of stuff.

try calling right when they open at 7am thats how i got through

I tried that yesterday but still got the busy signal. I'll keep trying though.

The main number is actually your best option, but timing is everything. I recommend calling Tuesday-Thursday between 8:00-8:30am or 4:30-5:00pm. Those tend to be slightly less busy. Also, when you get to the menu options, sometimes selecting Spanish and then asking for English can connect you to agents with shorter queues.\n\nIf your claim is showing as pending, it could be several things:\n- Identity verification issue (ID.me)\n- Waiting for employer response\n- Work search requirement verification\n- Wage verification\n\nCan you see any correspondence or determination letters in your online account? That might give you a clue what's happening without needing to call.

Thank you for the detailed advice! I'll try those specific times tomorrow. There aren't any new messages in my correspondence inbox, which is why I'm so confused. The last thing I got was the initial confirmation when I applied 3 weeks ago.

TWC is THE WORST!!! I literally had to call 137 times in one day before getting through last month. The system is DESIGNED to keep people from getting help. I finally got through and then they put me on hold for another 45 minutes!!! When I finally talked to someone they told me I was missing ONE document that nobody ever told me I needed to upload. The whole system is broken on purpose!

This happened to me too. I found out later that if you look carefully at your TWC account online under \

Have you tried contacting your state representative? When I couldn't get through for weeks, I emailed my state rep's office and they have a liaison who can contact TWC directly. They helped me resolve my issue in about 4 days. Google \

That's actually great advice - I forgot about that option. My sister had to do this last year when her account got locked and she couldn't get through to anyone for weeks. The state rep's office was surprisingly helpful.

There are a few specific strategies that might help you reach TWC more efficiently:\n\n1. Call the Tele-Serv automated line (800-558-8321) first to check if there's a specific issue code on your claim that might direct you to the right department\n\n2. If you're getting the busy signal constantly, try the TWC Tele-Center alternative number: 888-872-8414 (this works for some people)\n\n3. Your claim showing as \

Thank you so much for these detailed suggestions! I didn't know about the alternative Tele-Center number - I'll definitely try that tomorrow. And I'll check those specific inbox filters too. I've been requesting payments but was worried I might be doing something wrong since nothing has changed in 3 weeks.

hav u tried the chat option on the website? thats how i got help

I tried the chat but it just gave me automated responses that didn't help with my specific situation. Maybe I'll try again though.
