(complaint registered today)

Dear Ms. XXX,

As you recommended, I called again and then again several times, trying different menu options to talk to a human.

It all ended up in "due to unprecedented circumstances we are unable to take your call".

I tried every single alternative on the website.

There is a new system error every day (or several). There are too many mistakes to list but let's start by the customer being unable to choose the week(s) to file a claim for, which is against the documentation of the CARES act.

They are very clear: the customer files on Sunday (or any other day) for the previous week.

That is not what was offered to me: I had to file for a week in April (when I filed the rejected UE claim, way before I was contacted to apply for the PUA) and was unable to file the current week.

The second problem is $0.00 for my claim given that I fill all the requirements to receive the benefit.

My boyfriend took me to the only open office in OKC today (7401 NE 23rd St - Oklahoma City, OK 73141) and there was a line of approximately 60 people waiting outside. #PUA

Of course I cannot stand in line: if I was approved for the PUA, one of the reasons is that I AM SICK. And contagious.

9. @AAPD @OESCnews @USDOL @OKLAworks

Therefore, given that
1. the website is not interactive (no chat, no form), contains too many system errors to be remotely useful;

#PUA

10. @AAPD @OESCnews @USDOL @OKLAworks

2. phone calls are not taken;
3. OESC doesn't handle problems by email, which is actually the only professional way to do it;

#PUA

11. @AAPD @OESCnews @USDOL @OKLAworks

I am filing a complaint against the OESC for violating my disability rights.
