My first unemployment payment still has not arrived - any advice?

I applied for unemployment in Tampa 4 weeks ago and the status page still says pending. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. I called the state line four times and only reached a recording. Has anyone been through this? How long did it take in the end?
