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!

Okay, let me break this down for you based on my experience and what I've learned from others in similar situations: 1. First, double-check your online account. Sometimes the system flags that a form is needed even if you've already submitted it. It's a known glitch. 2. If you can't find any pending forms in your online account, look for any recent mail from EDD. They often send follow-up forms via snail mail. 3. The form in question could be: - DE 2501 (Doctor's Certificate) - DE 2515 (Claim for Disability Insurance Benefits) - DE 2063 (Employment Development Department Claim Update) 4. If you've already submitted all of these, it might be a system error. In this case, you'll need to contact EDD directly. 5. While waiting for clarification, continue to certify for benefits if prompted. Don't let a potential system error interrupt your claim. 6. If you can't get through on the phone, try reaching out via their online contact form or even their social media accounts. Remember, the EDD system is overloaded and glitchy. Stay persistent and document everything. Good luck with your claim and congrats on your pregnancy! 🤰💪

Have you checked your spam folder? Sometimes SDI emails end up there. Also, double-check the email address you provided them - a typo could explain why they're saying they never received it.

This might sound weird, but check if your bank info is still correct in your account. My friend's payments got held up because somehow his direct deposit info got messed up.

Here's what you need to do: 1. Check your online account for any messages or alerts 2. Make sure all your paperwork is up to date (medical certifications, etc) 3. If you can't find any issues, you NEED to talk to someone. Use that calling service someone mentioned above or keep trying the regular number 4. If you get through, ask for a specific reason why payments are held up and what you need to do to fix it 5. Get everything in writing if possible 6. If they say they need more info, send it certified mail so you have proof 7. Keep a log of all your calls and attempts to resolve this If none of that works, consider reaching out to your local state representative. They sometimes have staff who can help navigate these issues. Don't give up! The system sucks but you gotta keep pushing.

Here's a comprehensive guide for navigating SDI in Spanish: 1. Online Portal: Visit the EDD website and look for the 'Español' option in the top right corner. This will translate the entire site. 2. Phone Support: Call 1-866-658-8846 for Spanish assistance. Best times to call are early morning or late afternoon. 3. Forms: Most SDI forms are available in Spanish. Request them specifically if they're not offered. 4. In-person Help: Some EDD offices have Spanish-speaking staff. Check your local office. 5. Community Resources: Look for local non-profits or legal aid societies that offer free SDI assistance in Spanish. Remember to have all your documents ready, including your Social Security number, employment history, and medical certification. Don't give up if you hit roadblocks - persistence is key with these systems. Good luck!

Its absolutely rediculous that we have to jump through all these hoops just to access benefits we're entitled to. The system is broken and needs a complete overhaul.

Hey OP, have you checked if your claim is flagged for identity verification? Sometimes that can cause login issues. Might be worth asking about if you do get through to someone.

LPT: Llama temprano en la mañana, como a las 8:01 AM. He notado que hay menos espera y más probabilidad de conseguir un agente que hable español a esa hora.

Here's what I've learned from dealing with past due payments: • Always document everything. Keep records of when you called, who you spoke to, and what was said. • If possible, set up automatic payments to avoid future issues. • Check if there's an online portal where you can make payments or see account status. • Sometimes sending a written request (email or certified mail) can get better results than phone calls. • If it's a significant amount, consider consulting with a financial advisor or credit counselor. • Don't ignore the problem - it usually only gets worse. • If you're having financial difficulties, be upfront about it. Many companies have hardship programs. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
