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!

Anyone else feel like the whole system is designed to be as confusing and frustrating as possible? It's like they WANT us to give up 🙄

Preach! 🙌 Sometimes I wonder if they make it this way on purpose to discourage people from claiming benefits

Cmon guys, let's not go full conspiracy theory here. The system's just old and underfunded. Still sucks tho

Quick question - does anyone know if gig work affects your eligibility for an extension? I've been doing some food delivery on the side to make ends meet while I wait.

0 coins

Pretty sure you need to report any income, even from gig work. It might reduce your benefits but shouldn't make you ineligible

Be careful with this! A friend of mine got in trouble for not reporting some freelance work. Better to overshare than undershare

I'm in the same boat. Filed my supplemental cert back in December and still crickets. This whole system is broken af 🤦‍♂️

0 coins

December?! That's ridiculous. Have you tried contacting your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along.

0 coins

No, I haven't. Didn't even know that was an option. I'll look into it, thanks!

PSA: Always keep copies of everything you submit. You never know when they'll claim they didn't receive something.

THIS. Learned this the hard way. Now I screenshot everything too.

lol good luck. SDI is where claims go to die. I'm convinced they just ignore us and hope we'll go away 🤡

0 coins

Sad but true. The system is totally broken.

Has anyone had luck with the SDI mobile app? I heard they launched one recently but idk if it's any good.

0 coins

I tried it. It's okay for checking status, but still can't get ahold of a real person through it. Better than nothing I guess 🤷‍♂️

Has anyone tried going to the office in person? I'm thinking of camping out there until someone helps me lol

I tried that last month. Waited 4 hours just to be told I needed to call the hotline. 🤡 Don't waste your time.

Oof, thanks for the heads up. Guess I'll scratch that plan 😅

Easy to say when you're not the one who can't pay rent or buy food. Some of us don't have the luxury of patience.

fair point. didn't mean to sound insensitive. hope things work out for everyone soon

Anyone else notice that claims filed after covid seem to take way longer? Or is it just me?

0 coins

Definitely not just you. I think they're swamped with claims now.

0 coins

yep, covid screwed everything up. my friend who works at the agency says theyre super understaffed

Pro tip: if you can, submit everything online. It usually processes faster than paper forms.

0 coins

Thanks for the tip! I did submit online, so hopefully that helps.
