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!

Yep, it's a mess. I heard they lost a bunch of staff and never replaced them. Classic government move 🙄

Have you tried reaching out to your local state representative? Sometimes they can help speed things up if you're really stuck.

0 coins

I didn't even know that was an option! How do I find my rep?

0 coins

Just google '[your city] state representative'. Most have a 'constituent services' section on their website where you can ask for help with state agencies.

Plot twist: the EDD is actually run by a bunch of sloths 🦥 That's why everything takes foreverrrrr

LOL 😂 That explains so much!

Nah, sloths would be an improvement. At least they're cute.

Hey, quick question - when you say "automatic payment," do you mean SDI or UI? The process can be different depending on which one you're dealing with.

0 coins

Oh, good point! I'm dealing with UI. Should've mentioned that in my original post.

0 coins

Gotcha. For UI, new medical info can definitely cause delays. They might be reevaluating your eligibility. Hang in there!

Unpopular opinion: maybe try looking for a job instead of relying on unemployment? 🤷‍♂️

Dude, read the room. People are here because they're struggling, not because they want a lecture.

Ok boomer 🙄

FYI - there was a system update on March 10th that caused some delays in processing. Your tests might be caught in that backlog. Still worth calling to check tho!

0 coins

Where'd you hear about this update? I can never find any official info 🙄

0 coins

It was buried on their website. I'll try to find the link and post it here later.

Preach! 🙌 It's like they're stuck in the stone age or somethin

Hey OP, when you talk to them next time, make sure to emphasize that the retirement withdrawal was due to hardship caused by the disability. That might help your case.
