If I could give 10 stars I would

If I could give 10 stars I would If I could give 10 stars I would Such an amazing service so needed during the times when EDD almost never picks up Claimyr gets me on the phone with EDD every time without fail faster. A much needed service without Claimyr I would have never received the payment I needed to support me during my postpartum recovery. Thank you so much Claimyr!


Really made a difference

Really made a difference, save me time and energy from going to a local office for making the call.


Worth not wasting your time calling for hours.

Was a bit nervous or untrusting at first, but my calls went thru. First time the wait was a bit long but their customer chat line on their page was helpful and put me at ease that I would receive my call. Today my call dropped because of EDD and Claimyr heard my concern on the same chat and another call was made within the hour.


An incredibly helpful service

An incredibly helpful service! Got me connected to a CA EDD agent without major hassle (outside of EDD's agents dropping calls – which Claimyr has free protection for). If you need to file a new claim and can't do it online, pay the $ to Claimyr to get the process started. Absolutely worth it!


Consistent,frustration free, quality Service.

Used this service a couple times now. Before I'd call 200 times in less than a weak frustrated as can be. But using claimyr with a couple hours of waiting i was on the line with an representative or on hold. Dropped a couple times but each reconnected not long after and was mission accomplished, thanks to Claimyr.


IT WORKS!! Not a scam!

I tried for weeks to get thru to EDD PFL program with no luck. I gave this a try thinking it may be a scam. OMG! It worked and They got thru within an hour and my claim is going to finally get paid!! I upgraded to the $60 call. Best $60 spent!

Quick question for anyone who's been through this: how long did the whole reinstatement process take for you? Tryna figure out if I should take time off work or what

It took me about 2 weeks from start to finish, but I had all my docs ready to go. YMMV tho

0 coins

Took me over a month 😭 But that's cuz I messed up some paperwork. Learn from my mistakes lol

Hey OP, whatever you do, DON'T drive until you're fully reinstated. It's not worth the risk. I know someone who got caught driving on a suspended license and it made everything 10x worse. Just be patient and do it right!

Thanks for the warning! Definitely not planning on driving until everything's sorted. It's a pain but not worth making things worse.

Has anyone had luck with the online portal for reinstatement? I've been trying to avoid calling if possible.

0 coins

LOL good luck with that. The online system is about as useful as a chocolate teapot 🍫☕

I actually managed to do everything online! Took forever, but it worked eventually. Just be super patient and follow every step carefully.

Guys, I think I found a loophole in the system. If you...

Careful sharing that kind of info publicly. You might want to DM instead.

Good point, thanks. I'll delete my comment. DM me if you want details, OP.

Oof, been there done that. The DMV is like playing the lottery, except instead of winning money, you win the chance to stand in line for hours 😂

Hey OP, just a heads up - some states are offering extensions on expiring licenses due to the backlog from COVID. Might be worth checking if that applies in your area!

0 coins

Oh wow, I hadn't even considered that. I'll definitely look into it. Thanks for the tip!

have you tried checking your spam folder for the confirmation email? sometimes they end up there

Hot take: the DMV intentionally makes their website confusing so more people have to come in person and they can justify their bloated budgets. Wake up sheeple! 🐑👀

Bruh, not everything is a conspiracy 🙄

Is there a local DMV office you can visit? Sometimes its easier to sort these things out in person.

0 coins

There is, but the wait times are insane. Might have to bite the bullet tho

If you go, bring a book and snacks. And maybe a pillow 😴

Bruh, I feel your pain. The DMV is like a black hole where time and patience go to die. 💀

LMAO truth 🤣 I swear they operate in a different dimension where everything moves in slow motion

Quick question - how did the title end up in the wrong name in the first place? Might affect the process depending on the situation.

0 coins

It was my grandpa's car and he gave it to me, but we never got around to changing the title before he passed away. So now I'm trying to sort it out.

0 coins

Ah, gotcha. In that case, you might need to bring his death certificate and any will or document showing he left you the car. Probate fun times 😩
