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!

I think you're talking about SB 1234? It's supposed to modernize the system, but who knows when it'll actually pass 🙄

Have you tried tweeting at the unemployment office? I know it sounds dumb, but I got a response within hours when I did that. Worth a shot! 🤷‍♂️

have you tried checking your online account? sometimes it updates there before they send any official notice

Yeah, I've been refreshing it like crazy. Still no change 😕

Oof, bureaucracy at its finest. Reminds me of that time I tried to change my address. Took 3 months and 5 phone calls. Hang in there, OP!

Has anyone tried contacting their local representative about these delays? I've heard it can sometimes speed things up.

How do you even find out who your local rep is? 🤔

Just Google '[your state] find my representative'. Most states have websites where you can input your address and it'll show you who represents you.

Unpopular opinion: maybe we should be grateful extensions exist at all? I know the wait sucks, but at least we have this option.

Pro tip: If you're having trouble understanding the medical jargon in these letters, ask your doctor for a plain language summary. It's your right to understand your own medical info!

Does anyone know if theres a way to check the status of your claim online? Tired of being on hold for hours just to get a simple update smh

0 coins

Yeah, there should be an online portal where you can log in and check. Have you tried the official website?

0 coins

I did but it's always 'under maintenance' when I try to log in 🙄 Typical.

Quick question - did you file the claim yourself or did your employer do it? Sometimes if the employer drags their feet it can slow everything down.

0 coins

My boss said they filed it, but now I'm wondering if I should double check on that. Thanks for bringing this up!

Not sure about your state, but where I am, theres a website where you can check the status of your claim. Might be worth looking into if you havent already
