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!

Has anyone else noticed that these errors seem to happen more often right before holidays or at the end of the month? It's like they're trying to delay payments or something 🤔
I had the exact same E324 error last week! What finally worked for me was switching to a different device entirely - I was using my phone and it kept giving me that error, but when I tried my laptop it went through fine. Also make sure you're using the most up-to-date version of whatever browser you're using. The EDD website seems really picky about that stuff. Hope this helps!

•Oh wow, switching devices is such a good point! I never thought of that. I've been stuck using my old tablet this whole time because my laptop is broken. Maybe I should try borrowing someone else's computer or using one at the library. Thanks for the tip about keeping the browser updated too - mine is probably ancient at this point 😅

Ive been in the same boat, OP. Took me 3 weeks to get my application corrected. Hang in there!

I just went through this same process last month! In addition to the great advice from @Ravi Malhotra, I'd suggest trying to call during their less busy hours - I had luck around 2-3 PM on weekdays. Also, make sure you have your case number ready when you call, it speeds things up a lot. The whole process took about 10 days for me once I got through to someone. Don't give up, you'll get it sorted! 💪
Thanks for the tip about calling in the afternoon! I never would have thought of that timing. Just curious - did you have to resubmit any documents when you made your correction, or were they able to just update it over the phone?

LPT: If you're having trouble with EDD, reach out to your state representative's office. They often have liaisons who can help push things through faster.

•This! 👆 My rep's office got my issue resolved in like 2 days after I'd been waiting for months.
I'm dealing with something similar - submitted my disability claim 3 weeks ago and still waiting. One thing that helped me was creating a detailed timeline of everything I submitted and when. Also, try logging into your account at different times of day - sometimes the website shows different info depending on when their system updates. Have you tried checking if there are any pending documents they need from you? Sometimes they request additional info but the notification gets buried in their system.

Ugh, I feel your pain. The whole system is a mess. Hang in there, and don't be afraid to be a squeaky wheel. Good luck!

I went through the exact same nightmare last year! Here's what finally worked for me: I kept detailed records of every interaction with ID.me (screenshots, case numbers, etc.) and then filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. Within 48 hours, I got a call from an ID.me escalation team who manually reviewed and restored my account. Also, while you're waiting, try calling EDD at exactly 8:00 AM - I literally set multiple alarms and hit redial until I got through. The wait was brutal but I eventually got a human who helped me submit a paper application as a backup. Don't give up - the system is broken but there are ways around it!

Hot take: what if we all showed up at the SDI office with lawn chairs and just camped out until they process our claims? Who's with me? 😂

Check your EDD online account portal first - that's usually the fastest way to see if they've received your documents. You can also try faxing a follow-up request asking for confirmation of receipt with a list of what you submitted. I had success getting through on the phone by calling exactly at 8 AM when they open - the wait was still long but manageable. Also, if you submitted anything by mail, definitely use certified mail next time so you have tracking confirmation. The anxiety is totally understandable, but hang in there!

•This is really helpful advice! I didn't know about faxing a follow-up request - that's a great idea. Do you happen to know what the fax number is for SDI document confirmation? Also, the 8 AM calling tip seems to be working for several people here. Thanks for sharing your experience!
