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!

EDD payment delay: Weeks without unemployment, no updates. What to do?

I've been waiting for my unemployment payment for weeks now and still haven't received anything. I checked my EDD account online but there's no update. I'm getting really worried because bills are piling up. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on what I should do or say when I finally get through to an agent?

Anyone else feel like they're playing unemployment roulette? Some weeks I get paid, some weeks I don't. No rhyme or reason 🎰

Filed SDI claim on Aug 1, no updates after months. What to do?

I filed my disability claim on August 1st and haven't heard anything back yet. It's been months and I'm getting worried. Has anyone else experienced such a long wait time? What should I do to check on the status or speed up the process? I'm not sure if I should keep waiting or if there's something I'm missing.

Kiara Fisherman

Hey OP, hang in there. I know it's tough, but try to take care of yourself while you wait. The stress can really get to you. Maybe try some meditation or pick up a new hobby to keep your mind off it?

SDI wants me to see a doctor 100+ miles away - How to resolve this?

I'm so frustrated with SDI. I've been trying to get through about a doctor's referral they want me to see, but the doctor is over 100 miles from my house! I've called multiple times and still haven't resolved this issue. Has anyone else dealt with something similar? Any advice on how to get this sorted out?

Unpopular opinion: maybe try making the trip once? If you explain your situation to the doctor there, they might be willing to do follow-ups via telemedicine or help you find a closer alternative.

Pro tip: if you have a friend or family member who speaks another language, try the non-English line. Sometimes those have shorter wait times.

SDI claim submitted 3 weeks ago, no benefits yet. Need help ASAP!

I submitted my disability claim 3 weeks ago and still haven't received any benefits. I'm getting worried because I need those benefits by the end of the month. Has anyone else experienced delays like this? What should I do next? I'm thinking about calling them, but I'm not sure what to say or ask.

Problemas con EDD - Nadie contesta las llamadas para resolver problema de desabilidad

Alguien mas tiene problemas con el EDD? Llamo y nadie contesta. Estoy tratando de resolver un problema con mi desabilidad pero no puedo hablar con nadie. Que frustrante! Algún consejo?

Isaiah Cross

Consejo: intenta llamar a diferentes horas del día. A veces temprano en la mañana o justo antes de que cierren hay menos tráfico de llamadas. También, se paciente y persistente. Sé que es frustrante, pero eventualmente alguien contestará.

Frustrated: Can't get through to customer service after multiple attempts. Any advice?

This is so frustrating! I've been trying to get through to customer service for two days now. Every time I call, I get put on hold forever and then disconnected. I really need to speak with a representative to sort out my issue. Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips on how to actually get through to a human?

Have you tried reaching out on Twitter? Sometimes companies respond faster there to avoid public complaints.

EDD Payment Not Submitting Due to Updated Questionnaire - Help!

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with my payment not being submitted because of an updated questionnaire. Has anyone else run into this issue? I'm not sure what to do next and could really use some advice on how to get this sorted out.

Pro tip: take screenshots of every page as you fill out the questionnaire. That way, if something goes wrong, you have proof of what you submitted. Saved my butt when they tried to say I hadn't completed everything!
