very difficult. the edd says about the call wait times and what many are actually making those calls say, can be two entirely different things. seven on your side, michael, is looking into that and joins us live. michael? >> at a recent media briefing, edd officials said the wait time for an edd call is now around 40 minutes. now, that would be a remarkable turnaround from where we were just a short while ago. but, here is the thing. there are two metrics to be measured here. time on hold, is just one of them. matthew, from san francisco, had an edd question, so he dialed the phone number. >> i was on hold for three hours, i got a message on the call saying that the center is closed now, so please call back again. >> calling, waiting, and never getting through is a common complaint. it is not the only gripe about the edd phone system. another is that the system hangs up on you, not long after you start your call.
