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!

Have you tried reaching out to your local assembly member? They sometimes have direct lines to EDD and can help push your claim through.

Anybody else notice that the EDD website is always "undergoing maintenance" when you actually need to use it? 🙄

omg yes! Its like they know exactly when I'm gonna log in and decide to do updates 😤

Am I the only one who thinks its ridiculous that we have to jump through all these hoops just to get basic help with our claims? The whole EDD system needs a major overhaul smh

Preach! 🙌 It's a total clown show 🤡

For real. We pay into this system our whole working lives, and when we actually need it, it's a nightmare to use.

Hey OP, what specific issue are you having with your claim? Sometimes ppl here might have dealt with the same problem and can offer advice.

0 coins

Thanks for asking! My payments have been stuck on pending for over a month now, and I can't figure out why. I've uploaded all the requested docs but nothing seems to change.

Oof, the dreaded pending purgatory. Been there, done that. Definitely push for that supervisor call, they're usually the only ones who can push payments through.

Totally agree. It's a full-time job just trying to get your benefits sometimes.

Have you tried reaching out on Twitter? Sometimes their social media team is more responsive than the phone lines. Worth a shot!

Just a heads up, there was a glitch in EDDs system back in February that affected a bunch of pregnancy claims. They said they fixed it, but clearly some ppl are still having issues. Might be worth mentioning when u finally get thru to someone.

0 coins

Oh wow, I had no idea about this glitch. That could explain a lot. Thanks for the info!

Have you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes tweeting at EDD or messaging them on Facebook can get a response. Worth a shot! 🤷‍♀️

I swear, dealing with unemployment is a full-time job itself. Ironic, huh? 🙃 Anyways, hang in there OP. We're all in the same sinking boat.

For real tho. I spend more time figuring out this system than I do job hunting some days 😩

Hey, quick question - did you receive any kind of confirmation email or text when you first filed? Sometimes there's info in there about timelines.

0 coins

I got an email saying my claim was received, but nothing about timelines. I'll go back and check it again though, thanks!
