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!

Pro tip: If you're trying to reach a specific department, try these menu options when you call: 1. Press 1 for English 2. Press 1 for claim questions 3. Press 2 for employer questions 4. Enter your social security number 5. Press 1 to confirm This usually gets me to a human faster. Hope it helps!
You're a lifesaver! 🙏 Gonna try this tomorrow morning
I tried this and it worked! Only had to wait on hold for 45 minutes instead of never getting through lol
Have you considered reaching out to your local assembly member's office? They often have direct lines to EDD and can help push your claim through faster. Worth a shot if you're really stuck!
This! 👆 My assemblyman's office helped me resolve an issue that had been pending for months. Definitely give it a try, OP!

OP, when did you file your claim? It can take up to 3 weeks for them to even start processing it. The whole system is a joke tbh
It's been about a month now. I know they're backed up but this is getting ridiculous
A month? Yeah, you definitely need to follow up. That's too long.

Anyone else notice that the wait times seem to get longer every year? I swear when I filed a few years ago it was way quicker 🤔
Yep, budget cuts + more claims = longer wait times. It's a mess.

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 🙄

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? 🤔

•I get what you're saying, but desperate times call for desperate measures. The whole system is unfair tbh.
