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!

Pro tip: if you can't get through on the phone, try emailing them. Sometimes they respond faster that way. Just make sure to include your case number and all relevant details.
Do you have the email address? I can't find it anywhere on their website 🤔
It should be on your last notification letter. If not, try [county]@medi-cal.ca.gov where [county] is your county name.

Ive been waiting for 3 months to get my benifits sorted out. its a nightmare. i feel like im drowning and noone cares
yeah, the food banks have been a lifesaver. just wish i didnt have to rely on them, you know?
Food banks are such an important resource. Have you looked into community meals or other local supports too?
I've been in the same boat. Here's what I've learned after dealing with this for months: 1. Best times to call are usually right when they open or an hour before they close. 2. If you get a busy signal, keep redialing. Sometimes it takes 20+ attempts. 3. Have all your info ready before you call - case number, SSN, recent correspondence, etc. 4. Be polite but persistent. The workers are overwhelmed too. 5. If one person can't help, ask to speak to a supervisor. 6. Document everything - who you talked to, when, what they said. 7. Consider reaching out to your local representative's office. They can sometimes intervene. Hope this helps. Good luck!
Glad to help! They usually open at 8 AM, but double-check on their website. The early bird catches the worm! 🐦
This is great advice. I’d also add that calling on weekdays when it's not a holiday might see fewer waiting times.

Have you checked if theres any system maintenance or updates going on? Sometimes that can cause delays in showing renewed benefits.
