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!

This is why we need major reform in the disability benefits system. It's a disgrace how they treat people who are already struggling. 😤
Good luck with that. Politicians don't care about us little guys. 🙄
That attitude is exactly why nothing changes. We gotta at least try!

The fact that we have to jump through so many hoops just to access our benefits is ridiculous. The system is broken and needs to be fixed ASAP. How many people are suffering because they can't get through? 😤
Preach! 🙌 It's a disgrace. We need to start putting pressure on our representatives to fix this mess.
Here's what I've learned after dealing with EDD for months: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your calls, who you spoke to, and what was said. 2. Be persistent. Sometimes you have to call multiple times a day for days on end. 3. Use the online portal as much as possible. Sometimes issues can be resolved there without calling. 4. If all else fails, contact your local representatives or file a formal complaint. 5. Join Facebook groups or forums dedicated to EDD issues. Sometimes you can find insider tips or get help from others who've been through the same thing. Hang in there, OP. It's a frustrating process, but don't give up!
This is gold! 💯 Should be pinned at the top of the sub tbh
Thank you so much for this detailed advice! I'll definitely start keeping better records of my calls.

anyone else feel like the whole system is designed to make us give up? its like they want us to fail smh
Tin foil hat time: what if its all a conspiracy to keep us working? 🤔
Guys, cmon. It's just bureaucracy. It sucks but it's not a conspiracy lol

OP, if you're really strapped for cash while waiting, you might wanna look into local food banks or assistance programs. Some churches and community centers offer emergency help too. Hang in there!
