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!

SDI payment 20 days late after submitting docs - what to do?

I submitted all my documents for SDI benefits at the office 20 days ago. They told me my payment would be processed in 7-10 days, but I still haven't received anything. I've checked the website for updates, but there's no new information. Has anyone else experienced delays like this? What should I do next?

NebulaNova

This happened to me last year. Turns out they needed additional info but never notified me. Def try to get ahold of someone ASAP

This happened to me last month. Turns out there was a glitch in the new payroll system they implemented. Might be worth asking if they've made any recent changes?

EDD Extension Form Submitted - No Notice, No Payment. What to Do?

I submitted my extension form for unemployment benefits last week, but I haven't heard anything back. I got a confirmation that they received it, but no other notice. Now I'm worried because I haven't gotten paid for this past week. Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do when I finally get through to someone on the phone?

Samantha Howard

I swear the EDD is running on Windows 95 or something. How hard is it to process a simple extension? 🤦‍♂️

Pro tip: if you can't get through on the main line, try calling your local assemblymember's office. They often have dedicated liaisons who can help push things through with EDD. Worked for me when I was stuck in limbo for weeks.

EDD Benefits Continuation Status - Anyone Actually Getting Through?

Hey everyone, I'm trying to find out about the status of my benefits continuation. I've been waiting for a while now and I'm getting worried. Has anyone had any luck getting through to the agency lately? They're supposed to be open from 8 am to 5 pm, but I can never seem to get a hold of anyone. Any tips or advice would be really appreciated!

Nia Williams

Pro tip: if you're on Twitter, try tweeting at their official account. Sometimes they respond faster there because it's public

Need advice on EDD appeal process - how to ensure all paperwork is correct?

Hey everyone, I'm in the process of appealing my claim and I'm getting anxious about it. I want to make sure everything is in order. Has anyone gone through this before? I'm thinking about calling to check if all my paperwork and claim details are correct. Any advice on what to expect or how to prepare?

Dylan Wright

Quick question - has anyone had success with faxing their appeal instead of mailing it? I've heard it might be faster but idk if its true

Just a heads up, I appealed last month and they're currently running about 6-8 weeks behind on processing appeals. So don't freak out if you don't hear back right away!

EDD nightmare: SDI claim from 3 years ago still unpaid, funds lost between BofA and EDD. Help!

Hey everyone, I'm in a really frustrating situation with my disability claim from 3 years ago. I filed for SDI after having a baby, but I still haven't received my funds. EDD released the money to a BofA account, but by the time I got the debit card, the account was frozen for fraud. I did everything they asked to release the hold, but nothing worked. Now EDD is using a different bank, and BofA says they sent the money back to EDD in February. When I talked to EDD in April, they couldn't see the returned funds. It's now August, and I'm still waiting. The amount is over $9,000! Has anyone dealt with something like this? Any advice on how to finally get my money?

This is why we need major reform in our social services. It's ridiculous that hardworking people have to jump through so many hoops to get the benefits they're entitled to. Vote, people!

Hey OP, have you considered reaching out to local media? Sometimes a little public pressure can work wonders. Just a thought!

That's an interesting idea... I hadn't thought about that. I'm a bit nervous about going public, but if nothing else works, I might give it a try.
