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!

Sometimes the checks get lost in the mail. It happened to me once. You might want to ask EDD about getting a replacement check issued.
I didn't even think about that possibility. Thanks for the suggestion!

Has anyone had luck with the online contact forms? I've submitted like 5 and haven't heard anything back 😤
LOL good luck with that. I think those forms go straight to the trash 🗑️
I actually got a response once... after 3 months 🙃
Guys, I'm seriously at my wits end here. Been waiting on payments for 2 months now. Any advice on how to survive while waiting for this to get sorted out?
Have you looked into local food banks or rental assistance programs? They might be able to help tide you over
Hang in there, friend. I know it's tough but keep pushing. You'll get through this 💪

Hey OP, just a heads up - make sure you're keeping track of all your job search activities. They might ask for proof during the recertification process. I learned that the hard way 😅
Does anyone know if the recertification requirements have changed recently? I heard a rumor that they're being more strict now, but I can't find any official info.
I recertified last month and it seemed pretty much the same as always. Maybe it depends on your state?
Following this thread. I'm due to recertify next week and now I'm nervous 😰

Hey OP, don't forget to ask about any waiting periods! Some claims have a week or two before benefits kick in. Caught me off guard when I filed 😓
Oh wow, I had no idea about waiting periods. Thanks for the heads up!

hey OP, just wondering - how long ago did you submit your disability claim? sometimes it takes a while for the payments to start, even after approval.

•It's been about 3 weeks since I got the approval notice. Is that normal?

•3 weeks is pushing it, but not unheard of. If you don't see anything by the end of this week, definitely call them.

Pro tip: If you can't get through on the main line, try calling some of the other departments. Sometimes they can transfer you internally and it's way faster.
