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 ā€“ 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!

Here's what I know about EDD refunds based on my experience and research: ā€¢ Once processed, refunds typically take 7-14 business days to appear in your account ā€¢ The method of refund matters - direct deposit is fastest, checks take longer ā€¢ If you had multiple issues on your claim, it might take longer as they process each separately ā€¢ Always keep your confirmation number from when they say it's processed ā€¢ If it's been more than 3 weeks, definitely call back ā€¢ Make sure your address and banking info are up to date in the system ā€¢ Sometimes, refunds can be applied to outstanding overpayments without notice ā€¢ If you're really stuck, contacting your local assembly member can help speed things up Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Glad it's helpful! And no, weekends don't count in the business days. It's just Monday-Friday, excluding holidays.

This is why we need to overhaul the entire system. It's a joke that people have to jump through so many hoops just to get the benefits they're entitled to. šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

Quick question - did you get any kind of confirmation when your doc submitted the cert on Dec 3? Might be worth following up with them to make sure it went through on their end.

Quick question - did you recently start any part-time work or have any change in your medical condition? Sometimes that can trigger a review of your case.

Nope, nothing's changed on my end. That's why I'm so confused about this sudden stop in payments.

This happened to me last year! Turns out the doctor made a mistake in their report. Definitely appeal and get a copy of the doctor's notes if you can. It took a few months, but I eventually got it sorted out. Don't give up!

That's encouraging to hear. Did you have to get a lawyer or anything?

Nah, I managed without one. But if your case is complicated, it might be worth consulting with a lawyer who specializes in disability claims.

Have you checked if there's been any suspicious activity on your account? Sometimes banks block cards if they detect potential fraud. Log into your online banking and review recent transactions.

Quick question - when you say "multiple medical forms," what exactly did you submit? There might be a specific form they're looking for that you missed.

I submitted the DE 2501 Claim for Disability Insurance Benefits and a doctor's note. Should I have included something else?

Ah, gotcha. Make sure you also have the DE 2525XX Physician/Practitioner Certification filled out by your doctor. That's often the missing piece!
