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!

Error code preventing me from filing SDI claim online - help!

I'm having trouble filing my disability claim online. Every time I try to log in, I get an error code. It's preventing me from submitting my claim. Has anyone else experienced this? I've tried using a different browser and clearing my cache, but nothing seems to work. Any advice would be appreciated!

Libby Hassan

Have you checked if theres any scheduled maintenance? Sometimes they do updates and the site goes haywire for a few days.

EDD SDI payments suddenly stopped - still on medical leave, what to do?

Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. My EDD SDI payments suddenly stopped coming in, and I'm still on medical leave. I've been trying to figure out why this is happening, but I'm not getting anywhere. Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice on what I should do next? I'm getting pretty worried about my finances.

Andre Laurent

Anybody else think its crazy that we gotta jump through all these hoops just to get the benefits we're entitled to? The whole system needs an overhaul imho

SDI Nightmare: Doctor won't fill out form to end claim, worried about penalties. Help!

I'm having a nightmare with SDI. They sent me a form to end my claim because I can't afford to live on the low payments, but my doctor's office won't fill it out. The assistant keeps saying it has nothing to do with what I want to do, even though SDI sent it to me. I'm worried about getting penalized for not returning the form on time. My surgery's been postponed and my condition is getting worse. Anyone else dealt with this kind of bureaucratic mess? How did you handle it?

Anastasia Fedorov

This is why we need universal healthcare smh. The amount of bureaucracy in our current system is insane.

Have you tried escalating to a supervisor at your doctor's office? Sometimes the front desk staff don't understand the importance of these forms, but a higher-up might.

Money Network card declined, no payments since 16th - What to do?

Hey everyone, I'm having some issues with my Money Network card. It's been declined and I haven't received any payments since the 16th. I called them and they said my card was compromised. Now I need a new card and some information. Has anyone dealt with this before? What should I do next? What kind of info do they usually ask for when getting a new card?

Ava Hernandez

pro tip: once you get your new card, set up text alerts for all transactions. helps you catch any funny business right away

SDI payment delay - no benefits received after 6 weeks. What to do?

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with my SDI benefits. I filed a claim a while back and still haven't received any payment. I'm wondering if there might be a delay in paperwork or something else going on. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on what I should do next?

How to calculate SDI payment and duration? Need advice for upcoming phone call

Hey everyone, I'm trying to figure out my state disability benefits. I need to know how much I'll be getting and how long it'll last. My disability started recently and I'm not sure about the details. Anyone have experience with this? What should I ask when I finally get through to someone on the phone?

Anyone else notice that the payments are always a few days late? Or is it just me? 🤔

SDI sent letter with wrong info on my claim - all my doctor details are correct. What now?

Has anyone else had issues with disability making mistakes on their claim? I just got a letter about my application, but all my doctor info is correct. I'm so confused and frustrated. What should I do now?

Javier Gomez

Have you tried checking your claim status online? Sometimes the letters they send out are automated and don't reflect the most up-to-date info in their system.

This happened to me too! Turns out there was a glitch in their system that was misreading certain doctor's office addresses. Might be worth asking if that's still an ongoing issue when you get ahold of someone.

EDD hasn't paid me in a month, waiting on doctor's paperwork. Need help ASAP!

I haven't been paid in a month and it's driving me crazy. The agency is waiting on paperwork from my doctor to decide if they can pay me or not. It's so frustrating because I have rent, bills, and kids to support. Has anyone else dealt with this? What did you do to get it resolved?

This is why we need to overhaul the entire system. It's not just you, OP. Thousands of people are struggling with the same issues. We need to organize and demand change!
