TWC Unemployment Application Error: Forced to Call After Online Submission Fails

I found a way to solve unemployment application website errors, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwhEP20WSsY

Hey OP, just wanted to say hang in there. I know it's frustrating, but you'll get through this. We're all in the same boat. Sending good vibes your way! ❤️

I totally understand the frustration you're feeling. The unemployment application process can often be cumbersome and inefficient. One way to potentially circumvent the lengthy phone wait times is by using services like Claimyr. Claimyr is a tool that automates the dialing process, stays on hold for you, and connects you when an operator is available. While many users have found it worth the cost, it's also important to note that this service is not officially affiliated with any government agencies, so there might be some concerns regarding data privacy and reliability. As with any third-party service, read reviews and determine if it meets your comfort level in terms of security and cost-effectiveness. In the meantime, ensure all your personal documents and information are ready for when you do get through to a representative. Additionally, don't underestimate the power of persistence. Engaging with local representatives or reaching out via multiple communication channels can sometimes escalate your case more quickly.

Have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies? Sometimes that can help with weird website errors. Might be worth a shot before you spend hours on the phone.

Friendly reminder to everyone: don't forget to certify every two weeks once you're in the system! They don't always send reminders and it can mess up your payments if you forget.

guys, i've been trying to submit my application for THREE WEEKS. every. single. time. it crashes at the end. i'm about ready to give up. any advice before i lose my mind completely???

I heard they updated the online system recently. Maybe that's why you're getting errors? Typical government efficiency, amirite? 🙄

am i the only 1 who thinks its crazy we gotta go thru all this? like, other countries have this stuff figured out. why we always gotta do everything the hard way? 🤔

anyone else feel like were living in a dystopian nightmare? like, we pay taxes for this "service" and then have to jump through 1000 hoops just to get help when we need it. smh

Protip: if u get disconnected after waiting on hold for hours (happened to me twice 😭), try calling from a different phone number. I swear they blacklist numbers that call too much

Listen up, because I've been through this rodeo before. Here's what you need to do: 1. Call first thing in the morning. Like, the second they open. You'll have a better chance of getting through. 2. Have ALL your docs ready. I'm talking pay stubs, ID, social security card, everything. They might ask for stuff you don't expect. 3. Be polite but firm. The person on the other end is probably dealing with angry people all day. A little kindness goes a long way. 4. Take notes during the call. Write down the name of who you talked to and any case numbers they give you. 5. If they can't help you, ask to speak to a supervisor. Sometimes the first person you talk to doesn't have the authority to fix certain issues. 6. Follow up. If they say they'll do something, call back in a few days to make sure it actually happened. Good luck, and don't give up! The system is a mess, but persistence pays off.

I found a way to get someone on the phone without waiting forever. I used this site called claimyr.com. It's a calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, and then sends the call to your phone when a live agent picks up. It costs $20, but it saved me hours of frustration. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U

LPT: Record your phone call with the unemployment office (if it's legal in your state). It's saved my butt more than once when they've given me incorrect info.

Plot twist: the website errors are actually a test. If you can navigate the broken system, you're qualified for a job at the unemployment office. 😂

Has anyone else noticed that the hold music is like, the worst ever? I swear they use it as torture to make people hang up. 🎵😫

Ugh, I feel your pain. The same thing happened to me last month. It's like they designed the system to be as frustrating as possible. 🤦‍♂️

Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things through when you're stuck in bureaucratic limbo.

When you call, make sure you have all your info ready. They'll probably ask for your personal details and employment history. Also, ask them to confirm that your application will be submitted once you're done on the phone. Don't want to go through all that just to have it lost in the system!
