I won my appeal before the Employment Development Department.
Now the EDD wants to interview me to see why I did not submit my unpaid claims forms in a timely manner. The answer: because the idiots didn't send them to me. After two email requests without results, I finally sent a certified letter demanding that they send me the forms; they finally did. (I tried calling but the telephone system there was hopelessly jammed for weeks.)
Fortunately, I documented both the emails and have a copy of the certified letter and receipt. So now I have some more waiting and aggravation from the bureaucrats before I get paid, if and when I do.
Oh that's great, Stogie, congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYou'll get paid, it may take some time, but you will get paid.
Have a nice day,

Sometimes it is worth the fight to get paid. I often think bureaucrats and insurance companies give people the run around until they just give up. It is a business strategy I am sure.
ReplyDeleteYay!!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to this same level of government speed and efficiency when I am in need of urgent, emergency medical care.
ReplyDeleteTrès heureuse pour vous Stogie !
ReplyDeleteWhen that happened to me in 2003, I got a big fat check within a week or two. Of course I live in NV, and not CA...
