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 notice the online system has been extra glitchy lately? I can't even log in half the time 🤦‍♂️

Has anyone had luck with contacting their local representative? I've heard sometimes they can help speed things up.

I tried that once. Took forever to hear back, but they did eventually help. Worth a shot if youre desperate

Just wanted to say hang in there, OP. This process can be soul-crushing, but you're not alone. We're all in this leaky boat together 🚣‍♀️

Thanks for the support. It really helps to know I'm not the only one dealing with this mess.

I'm in the same boat, friend. Been waiting on payments since September. This whole system is held together with duct tape and prayers at this point.

Ugh, I'm sorry you're dealing with this too. Hope we both get our issues resolved soon!

Pro tip: If you can't get through on the main line, try calling one of their auxiliary offices. Sometimes they can help or at least transfer you to someone who can. I've had luck with the Santa Ana office before.

Here's what worked for me to get my SDI extension: 1. Document everything. Keep a log of all your attempts to contact them. 2. Check your online account daily for updates. 3. If calling doesn't work, try sending a message through the online portal. 4. Reach out to your local state representative's office. They can sometimes intervene on your behalf. 5. Be persistent but polite when you do get through to someone. 6. Make sure all your medical documentation is up to date and submitted. It's a frustrating process, but don't give up. You're entitled to these benefits!

Unpopular opinion: maybe if we all stopped calling constantly, it would be easier to get through 🤷‍♂️

I get that, I'm in the same boat. Just saying maybe there's a better way.

Has anyone tried the UI Mobile app? wondering if its any better than the website for getting info/updates

It's basically the same tbh. Just a smaller screen to get frustrated at lol
