THIS IS AN OLD VIDEO and unfortunately the EDD has since changed their phone system and this no longer works **Use Claimyr which will get you a hold line (my affiliate link saves you $5) **claimyr.com/?ref=7d3d41** **ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cURm3K3YVLQ.html** or **Contact your assembly member** findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov/
@@ginnysilver I got a notice of determination of invalid claim section 1277 can you explain this I reapplied over 3 weeks ago and still no updates on my account and talked to 4 different reps last week and they weren't able to help me please help
Is this tip not working any more..? Every time I press 134 at that time I am asked about form 1099G, am I doing something wrong or has anyone else experienced this?
It is nice that you were able to help 250,000 people who were unable to get through to EDD. The government pretends so many times they cannot do something because they are incompetent, but it is not true.
I tried multiple times but finally got through yesterday May 6th!! I was on hold for an hour but spoke to someone who was super helpful. Today I was paid the 4 weeks I had pending!! KEEP TRYING!! Thank you so much! I am in tears today I am so happy!
My girlfriend and I used this trick by calling first thing in the morning right at 8am and both of us were able to get through. my girlfriend got through immediately and I got through after calling maybe 7 or 8 times. My girlfriends issue was resolved very quickly and easily. We did this on 05/17/21 so this trick still works, thank you so much Ginny, and don't give up everyone out there!
THANK YOU X 100. I've been trying 6 months to get through. Listened to your RU-vid this weekend. Called yesterday got through in 2 mins. I'm getting all my back pay from Dec 13th- April 5th.
Thank you Ginny! After a week of calling multiple times, I finally got through today (Friday, 2 PM) by using phone trick 134. Was told wait time is over 30 minutes. My call went through after 33 minutes. Phone rep was able to clear my pendings to paid immediately. Keep trying everyone, don't give up!
This is disgrace. Look at Amazon with over 300 million active customer accounts worldwide. You get efficient help using online chat in 2 minutes, and problem is resolved after 2 minutes. CA having the greatest software and computer engineers in the world cannot provide a basic service to its residents who are in urgent need.
You have to keep trying. It took me a whole day to accomplish this task. I finally got through around 4:18pm and had to wait over 3 hours talk to an EDD representative. Good luck and don't give up.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I got through after 5 tries. I entered the 134 after the please select prompt.!! My husband got everything resolved and so did I! You are amazing. We appreciate this so much!
IT WORKS TODAY, tried 4 times in a row and 4th time put me on hold, I HAVE BEEN CALLING FOR 3 WEEKS AND THIS TRICK HELPS!!! Try it, fingers crossed my call gets answered
You are seriously the greatest you have no idea how much you helped me. All week I've been trying but to no avail and today right at 8am I called only to be told the call volume was too high but this worked first try I was told 8 minutes. Just getting thru most of the time is the biggest problem. You're a God send thanks for all you do. Now if they can figure out why my card worked until Saturday no problems then Sunday night it just said closed...of course bank of America says its the edd and I'm beyond furious. I didn't have bemefits for 3 months while verifying my identity then all of a sudden one day not to be suspended and without warning while I still had a couple grand on my card to just close it I'm beyond furious.
Yes I did get thru and after I was called back, transferred to specialist. Problem resolved but I was on hold for 2 hrs. So glad I bought the bot. Highly recommend.
🥳🥳 HOLY COW THIS WORKED!🥳🥳 I cannot begin to thank enough for making this video showing this trick! IT WORKED! For the first time in almost 2 damn months, I GOT A WAIT TIME instead of it hanging up on me!!! 23 minute wait and finally talked to A HUMAN BEING and get some questions answered FINALLY. Now let's see if I get this damn phone interview appointment time from them. Never has it been this difficult. Thank you for being my Angel today, truly🙏💞💝🥰🌺💃💃
After a month of “pending” to be paid out and endless calls to the normal number this morning I used your trick and after 3 attempts got put on hold for 25 minutes and then got through and they paid me out finally! Hallelujah thank you so much for this trick! Rent will be paid next month 😃 🙏🏼
Saw your comment and I too have been stuck on pending ..if you don’t mind me asking what was the reason you were stuck on pending? I’ve been trying to get through to them but still no luck!!!
@@vickymillan8090 they asked me why I was unemployed ie direct from pandemic or did I quit, even though I’ve been receiving benefits for almost a year now
Drew would you mind sharing exactly what steps you used? I'm following the video to a tee & for some reason everything after the 134 press it says "my call cannot be completed at this time"
@@michaeldraper5876 I followed the steps to a tee as well, it worked after the third time but the message you are getting I did get that many times with the regular number posted on the Edd website. Good luck my friend 😔
What was the hold up? I have 8 weeks pending and can’t seem to get through the line to speak with someone. I lost my job in March, I’m exhausted & don’t know what else to do.😩
They spend more time trying to counter YOU than doing what they SHOULD be doing which is upgrading their system to be able to easily handle whats going on.
I gave in and finally used the claimyr link and I received a call in 20 minutes and I was on hold for only 10 minutes. I needed to be transferred to a claim specialist, but I am glad I finally got in contact with someone. Claimyr does work after several failed attempts with the phone trick.
Ok this worked for me 1st try at 8am, 26 May; said 1 minute wait but it was like 10 minutes, no big deal after trying for 8 weeks. Service rep cleared up all my pendings (9!) in less than 2 minutes. Thank you Ginny!
THANK YOU GINNY!!! You are truly amazing 👏❣ I've trying to call Ca EDD for a year now and never get through or hung up on! But I tried pressing 134 at 1:35 and had to wait for the recording to say push 1 for claim and 2 for " " then pushed 134 and it sent me to the hold line! It worked on my 2nd try! So excited to finally get through to a person. Thank you for all you do! The real people out here APPRECIATE your hard work!😘💖
Yesterday me and my gf tried to call both numbers doing the 134 combo in the afternoon around 2p and 450p, and it didn't work. Gave up after around 50 tries. Today I called at the start of 8am. Got through on like my 5th call and got an estimated wait time on 2mins (really ended up being 15 but better than nothing, right?) Was briefly put on hold, helped and problem solved by a nice man within 1hr 30mins. He cleared my pending account, reapplied for a new claim for me. Was very nice and helpful. Thanks so much Ginny!♡~
It worked for me! I only had to be on hold about 45 minutes, then a nice woman fixed my pending problem in just a few minutes. It all depends on who you get.
Guys if you need to get thru to EDD USE THIS NUMBER ITS WORKS!!! I used auto dail (the other robo caller) for two days and it didn’t work it’s $50 for one line $80 for two lines. I used this two times today and got thru once. Got my problem fixed and got paid today!! It does work don’t hesitate. You might be on hold for 2-3 hours tho. It sucks that you have to pay but it’s definitely worth it. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE HELP
You just have to keep trying. Using this trick helps you save a lot of time listening to these unless informational recorded messages. It took me a day in order to get through and it was worth it. Good luck 🤞.
Hey Ginny, got so fried with this situation that I called Gonzales office in San Diego, they were very kind and gave me the number of my local Senator. I called them and brought ID documents to them, the girl in their office was EXCEEDINGLY professional and patient. Took all documents to their office, they are going to help me, they are apparently helping who they can. I live in Santa Barbara. If anyone in Santa Barbara area is having problems they may be able to help. AND, thanks again GINNY!
Yes!! I have recommended contacting her office to those who can't get help from their assembly member, thanks for sharing and really hope they help you!
Based on Ginny's advice, I called my local Assembly Member's Office and I cannot express how easy and fast that process was. If you are having trouble getting through to EDD, please contact your local representative. Ginny has posted in her comment on this video how to find your local rep. Here is my timeline: 4/20 - I emailed them 4/21 - I got a call within 24 hours from someone who works in their office who deals with this. She asked me a couple of basic questions and then emailed me a form to give them approval to talk to the EDD rep that she personally meets with them weekly. According to my rep, the EDD person they speak to is high level so they can fix things on the spot. 4/24 - I got an email that it was fixed and was PAID. I know each office is different but it is worth reaching out to them because it saves you the hours of holding and possibly being hung up on or not talking to the right person. Good luck everyone!!!
Thank you so much you beautiful intelligent woman!!!! I used your trick on the first try i got through!!!!!!!! I had been trying for hours for atleast 3 weeks!!! There was some kind of hold up with my payments and i needed to talk to someone to fix it and my bills were building up. You saved me,i really appreciate you.
Tried this method today! Thank you so much for the help. For all my people trying, keep being persistent. It took me about 30 attempts and was on hold for an hour but was able to get through a live rep and got my issue resolved. Don’t let the “your call cannot be completed” bring you down. Keep calling!
Just tried it and it worked. You have to press 134 right when your call reaches 1 min and 45 secs.! Wish me luck, I'm told to be on hold for more than half an hr. I pray to God that I can finally receive my benefits after waiting six weeks.
You helped my GF soooo much! My GF got through to EDD customer service after 5 hrs of calling but she did it! Thank you! My point being to everyone who sees this, do NOT give up. Be persistent. Also the EDD representative was very kind and helpful. Have faith! You all can do it and you will get EDD on that phone. Believe and you will achieve.
I called that phone number and did the Spanish option and it worked! It took 55min on wait but I got everything fixed! Getting paid for 2 months of no pay. Thank you so much. After 8 weeks of trying this phone number helped so much. Unfortunately, the English option didn’t work for me.
@@rollinggstonee so check it out, all these happened yesterday and this morning they just deposited everything from last 2 months. The moment you hear you’re being put on hold until next representative you better stick around. Mine took about 55min on hold but worth it! No questions asked, the employee even adjusted some weeks in December that I didn’t get paid for.
I drove back and fourth from San Diego to LA for an errand. I used handless device calling a total of 180 times and got hung up every single time. I wish I could sue those pieces of shit
@@dj_steven408 I was using my time wisely. Instead of listening to music on my trip, I called nonstop. I would rip my hair out if I sat on my couch all call day calling
After days & days in a row, calling repeatedly for hours, I tried again using the Claimyr service. I got a call back after an hour. Talk to an agent, then she transferred me to a specialist. I waited 2.5 hours on hold. before getting a specialist. That point it all went fast. She processed my PEUC extension, and said I should be able to certify in 3-4 days. ..if not, I need to call EDD back (oh no!). Today (1 day later) I checked my EDD online account. I was able to certify for all 6 weeks I was missing! Status says PAID, but usually takes 24 hours before funds are available...so now I wait! All & all, I've made more progress, faster due to info you provided and Claimyr. It feels unfair to pay $20 to get through to EDD, but it's apparently a necessary evil. I feel bad for those without internet access, or who didn't learn about Claimyr, or can't afford the $20 call. They have almost no chance of getting through. NOTE: The first day I used Claimyr, I waited 4.5 hours on hold, only to get dissconnected at 8pm when EDD closed. I used the 24 hour call back Claimyr offers. That's when I got through after waiting a couple of hours.
Hahaha! Thanks for bringing some humor to our sad EDD lives and trying to get through to customer support. I’m going to give it a try on Friday (4/2/21) morning since my benefit year ends 4/5/21. Crossing my fingers!
I just got through using your tip/truck I have a 20 minute wait and scheduled for them to call me back. I have tried numerous times before this and they were always to busy and would hang up. Thank you for sharing this trick. It works
I even tried to do it in different languages I just memorized what numbers to push hoping I’d get through in a different language thinking there might be less people calling in in that language but it’s as busy as going through the process in English LOL
After calling 68 times throughout the day and just about to throw my phone out the window.. I got through. I called in at 4:20pm with the 134 trick. After an hour and 45 min wait, I was connected to a person and he has now changed my payments from pending to paid. Thank you Ginny for helping us! Don't give up calling.. be persistent!
GO Girrrrrrrrrl! IT WORKED TODAY!! 2x attempted and i was able to at least be in the hold line! It took almost 3 hours but I GOT A LIVE PERSON! The problem is solved!!
Claimyr worked for both me and my boyfriend!!! They got us a call back and thru to the hold line. We each waited like 2 or 3 hours to get to talk to someone but each of us got our issues resolved. 10000% recommend Claimyr! Totally worth the $15
This worked after my second try, after months of calling, every hour, every day. I came across your video. I called the number you said to… it didnt work. HOWEVER, I called the number listed on their website, the one ends in 5616 & after the second try of calling, I GOT THRU & HAD AN 11 MINUTE WAIT!!! Omg THANK YOU THE 1,3,4 TRICK WORKS WITH THE OTHER NUMBER!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
At the 1:35m mark i pressed 134 and at first nothing happened, so I quickly pressed 134 again. Nothing happened so I pressed 134 once more and was able to get through. I am now on hold. Fingers crossed.
Thank you so much! I had to call in about 20 times but finally got through and was on hold for about 30 mins. A very kind and helpful employee named Jackie was able to unfreeze my account immediately and now I am all set til September!!! Oh happy day :)
Hi Ginny you rock! I'd been redialing for 4-5 hours a day for 3 days straight. Saw you on youtube and thought I'd try Claimyr (with the handy discount from your site). Got my discount fee with Claimyr, connected me in 20 mins, hold for 5mins, I got a real person. HOWEVER, I was in the middle of working with a really helpful woman at UI, when the call just dropped. I was so bummed, and then, Claimyr texted me asking about my call, and offered another call within 24 hours for free. Got through AGAIN IN LIKE 25 MINUTES. Unfortunately this person sent me to hold for a specialist. On hold for 1 hour, then, got a competent person who figured my claim disqualification out and said my payments would release in 24-48 hours. Short version, thank you for your help with this crazy system!
Hi! So I got through 3 times. Yes. It does work. But it leads to wrong department to push pending to paid. They said this is not the department to help with that all 3 times. FYI! Thank you
It is hard for me to believe you and all the others who have "tricks" get through on the first time or even the second time while I call literally for 8 hours nonstop
@@mitch4136 she didn't but the tone of her comment was not ok. It's understandable she is frustrated, we all are, but coming to leave a comment like that doesn't help.
@@ijor4942 I don’t see anything wrong with this individual’s tone. Except someone who’s expressing their own emotions about how frustrating it is to deal with life during this difficult time. I found it to be healthy and I’d show this person some compassion and encourage them to try again and not to give up. Your comment lacks all and it’s actually useless. Do better!
@@mitch4136 the fact that you don't doesn't mean it doesn't have the wrong tone. Don't try to lecture my useless comment when someone else is questioning someone who is trying to help but that gets a pass. Instead of telling me to do better apply it to yourself.
Can you image how productive and efficient the EDD would be if they partnered with you? Instead, true to form and history in keeping with tradition they label it a threat.
The 134 trick worked>I think. At least I got a real human to file a new claim. 9 weeks still pending, assured they will be paid by tomorrow. Thank You Thank You
I tried for months, several tricks I found, never connected. Using your 134 trick connected on the 1st call, mid afternoon... actually got my pending status resolved and all certifications opened for me from June thru September... Thank you!!
