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 happened to me last year. Turns out my doctor forgot to submit some paperwork. Double check with your healthcare provider to make sure everything's been sent in properly.
Doctors can be so flaky with paperwork 🙄 Always gotta stay on top of them!

Pro tip: if you can, go to an EDD office in person. Bring ALL your docs. Sometimes face-to-face gets better results than phone tag.
This! I second this advice. Got my issue sorted in one visit after weeks of phone hell.

Pro tip: if you need info about your case, try contacting your local assemblymember or state senator's office. They often have direct lines to EDD and can help push things along. Saved my butt when I was stuck in limbo for months.
This! 👆 My assemblymember's office was super helpful. Definitely worth a shot.
Here's what I've learned after dealing with this mess for months: 1. Be persistent. Call multiple times a day if you have to. 2. Keep detailed notes of every interaction, including dates, times, and names of reps you speak with. 3. Use the online portal to send messages and upload any required documents. 4. If you're not getting anywhere, reach out to your local representatives. 5. Consider using a paid service like Claimyr if you're really stuck. 6. For Spanish speakers, always request a bilingual agent upfront. 7. Be polite but firm with the reps. They're dealing with a lot too. 8. If possible, have all your info (claim number, ID, etc.) ready before you call. 9. Try calling at off-peak hours, like right before they close. 10. Don't give up! It's frustrating, but keep at it. Hope this helps someone. We're all in this together. 💪
Number 7 is key. These reps are just doing their jobs. Being nice goes a long way.
Wish I had this list when I started my claim. Would've saved me so much headache 😩

I'm in the same boat. Filed my supplemental cert back in December and still crickets. This whole system is broken af 🤦♂️
December?! That's ridiculous. Have you tried contacting your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things along.
No, I haven't. Didn't even know that was an option. I'll look into it, thanks!

This is why we need universal basic income. The current system is a joke.
