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! I had to do this once. Sat in the waiting room until they agreed to see me. It was awkward but it worked.

Is anyone else sick of how the unemployment system treats us like we're trying to scam them? We're just trying to survive here. It's not our fault the economy is a dumpster fire. 🔥
It's because a few bad apples spoil the bunch. There are people who do try to scam the system, which makes it harder for the rest of us.
Doesn't matter. The system should be designed to help people, not to catch a few cheaters at the expense of everyone else.

lol watch them call when ur in the bathroom 🚽📞
Bruh, don't even joke about that. I'd cry ðŸ˜
That's why I always keep my phone with me, even in the shower. Can't miss that call! 🧼📱
Has anyone else noticed that the hold music is like, the worst ever? I swear they use it as torture to make us hang up. 🎵😫

•Plot twist: it's actually subliminal messaging telling us to give up on our claims 👀

Quick question - did you send your docs certified mail? That way you have proof they received them. Might help if you need to follow up.
Noah Ali
•No, I didn't think of that. Good idea for next time though!
Amara Torres
Anyone else notice that EDD seems to be moving even slower since the pandemic? I swear it used to be better than this...
Yep, they're probably swamped with claims. Still no excuse for the terrible communication tho

Has anyone tried reaching out on social media? I've heard some people have had luck getting responses that way.

•I tried tweeting at them once. Got a generic response telling me to call the same number I've been trying for weeks 🙄
Facebook worked for me! Try messaging their page directly.

I feel your pain, OP. I was in the same boat last month. What finally worked for me was calling exactly at 8:01 AM and using the Spanish option (even though I don't speak Spanish). Got transferred to an English-speaking rep pretty quick. Good luck!
Isn't that kinda unfair to Spanish speakers tho? 🤔
Josef Tearle
•I get what you're saying, but desperate times call for desperate measures. The whole system is unfair tbh.

Have you checked if your claim period expired? Sometimes payments stop because you need to file a new claim. It's not always clear when this happens.

•3 weeks?! That's insane. Have you tried reaching out to your local representatives? Sometimes they can help speed things up.
