I dread having to call them because you can almost NEVER speak to a live agent unless it’s someone transferring you over to another unit & then you’re on hold for most of the day. I have currently been on hold for 3 hrs & if I don’t speak to anyone today, I’ll have to wait until Monday because they’re not in office on weekends & I work so that’s always hard to be on hold when you have to go in for a shift. Such an unprofessional establishment. They were never like this before the pandemic hit.

This doesn't even deserve one star. We cannot login to file the required employer DOL-4 form for 3rd quarter. We realized this on 10-13-21 and immediately contacted the Field Supervisor, Amy Scarlett, because she helped us before on the same problem. Now she is only e-mailing me directions that don't fit the problem at hand and e-mailed me a number to call which is just a voicemail. The owner gave her a POA to work with me (his accountant) because his wife passed away the day before we contacted Amy. But even then, no call from Amy or anyone that can help. THE RUN AROUND HAS WASTED MORE TIME THAN JUST SOLVING THE PROBLEM!!!!! Even the owner is not getting anywhere. He will get penalized if this form is not filed online by Sunday, October 31st, but we cannot get anyone to help get us logged in. I got one lady on the phone by mistake and she said she could not help me and gave me another number which I ended up with another voicemail and left another begging message. I have e-mailed the commissioner - which is probably a waste of time. The way they run this office is a complete joke. GA Dept of Revenue seems to have their act together but the GA Dept of Labor does not!

If I could give this place a zero I would. They are ZERO help. Don’t waste your time going here. They will do nothing to help you.

Never have received benefits but was approved in JANUARY - they make up all sorts of hoops and requirements to jump through but cant be reached by phone and were closed in person due to Covid for the longest time. The entire system is a joke. Fet up, I actually called the governors office and they called to have someone call me back. I was then given wrong infomation AGAIN. And when I tell them thats not what I was told last time (that I sat on hold for hours or drove the center) I am just told that "sorry you received the wrong information". Every time I speak to someone its always "oh you need to do this" "you'll be paid next week" "you didnt fill out this form". I have sent dozens of emails begging for help. I have been to the career center 5 times and get different answers each time, never actually being assisted or receiving benefits (although I was approved by them in January). A shameful joke of a government agency. I was told "you shouldve found a job by now" and was given jobs over a hour+ away from my home that were hiring that I should apply for...$10hr. Some people cant work that far from home due to time/family/car/etc but i SHOULD have a job by now. SO RUDE

Questions & Answers

Class action lawsuit, anyone? They have a big defense with Covid but I'm sure tens of thousands of Georgians could push some action. Our families go to bed hungry while the people we pay with our taxes, to help us, don't. People have the power.

Claim your benefits on the date that they give you. NOT BEFORE! After you claim your benefits for one week they will begin to process your claimbut make sure you claim every week. Doing so will get you back pay for the weeks that you claimed. It usually takes about 30 days total.
