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!

This happened to me too! Here's what worked for me: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls and attempts to contact them. 2. Contact your local state representative. They can sometimes expedite things. 3. File a formal complaint with the insurance commissioner. 4. If you have a union rep, reach out to them for help. Don't give up! It took me 3 months, but I finally got my backpay. Good luck!

Guys, I found a way to actually get someone on the phone! I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video explaining it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Claims like these can be a lifesaver, but it’s essential to weigh the cost against the benefit. If it saves time, it might be worth it for some.

Hey OP, while Claimyr might seem like a tempting option, remember to weigh both pros and cons. Yes, it can save time and frustration, but the cost can add up, especially if you're financially strained right now. Additionally, local representatives and legal aid services can be invaluable resources. These avenues can provide support without any additional charges. Also, maintaining a calm and organized approach to communicating with EDD - keeping records, following up as needed, and being patient - can sometimes work wonders. Persistence and resilience can make a significant difference. Remember, you're not alone in this battle. Many others are navigating this convoluted system along with you, and sharing experiences can be a source of support and advice.

It’s definitely frustrating dealing with unemployment document issues. One thing to ensure is that you carefully read through the instructions provided in any correspondence you receive. Sometimes, small details can be easily overlooked. Claimyr is a handy tool that many find useful for directly connecting with a representative. However, consider weighing its cost against your current situation. Additionally, ensure the clarity and completeness of documents by using recommended apps or methods like faxing or certified mail. It's beneficial to stay organized and thorough in your follow-ups. Lastly, keeping your local representative informed can sometimes trigger faster responses as they may advocate on your behalf. Stay persistent, and don't lose hope!

Hey OP, just a heads up - make sure you're keeping track of all your attempts to contact EDD. If there's a delay in your claim because of their errors, you might be able to get backpay. Don't let them off the hook!
