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!

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video explaining it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ
How long did you have to wait once they started calling?
It took about an hour and a half, but I just went about my day and they called me when an agent was on the line. Way better than being stuck listening to hold music!
This might sound weird, but have you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes tweeting at them or messaging on Facebook can get a response. Public pressure and all that.
I hadn't considered that. Do you know if they have an active social media presence?
Yeah, they're pretty active on Twitter. Just be polite but firm. Something like "Day 30 of waiting for an update on my disability claim. Any assistance would be appreciated @[their handle]

Talk to your landlord ASAP. Some are willing to work with you if you explain the situation. Also, check if there are any local rent assistance programs in your area.

Here's what you need to do: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact EDD, including dates and times. 2. Check your spam folder regularly. Sometimes important emails end up there. 3. If you can't get through on the phone, try their social media. Sometimes they respond on Twitter or Facebook. 4. As someone else mentioned, contacting your local rep can help. 5. If all else fails, consider filing a complaint with the state labor board. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up!
Wow, thanks for the detailed advice! I'll definitely try these steps.
This is solid gold advice right here 💯

This happened to me last year! Turns out the doctor made a mistake in their report. Definitely appeal and get a copy of the doctor's notes if you can. It took a few months, but I eventually got it sorted out. Don't give up!

•That's encouraging to hear. Did you have to get a lawyer or anything?

•Nah, I managed without one. But if your case is complicated, it might be worth consulting with a lawyer who specializes in disability claims.
