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!

Barely. Had to max out my credit cards. This country is a joke when it comes to taking care of its workers.

Anyone else notice how they never have issues processing our tax payments but when we need something from them suddenly everything moves at a snail's pace? 🙄

Pro tip: if u cant get thru on the main line, try calling the employer line and act like ur a confused employer. sometimes they'll help u anyway lol

Isn't that kinda unethical tho?

Has anyone tried faxing their documents instead of uploading online? I've heard it can sometimes be faster.

What year is it, 1995? 😂 But seriously, if it works, I'm willing to try anything at this point.

I've given up on calling. Sent a certified letter instead. At least this way I have proof that I've been trying to contact them.

0 coins

Has anyone tried going to the office in person? I'm considering it at this point, even if I have to wait in line all day.

0 coins

I tried last month. They turned me away and told me to use the phone or online system. Complete waste of time.

Some offices are open for in-person now, but you need an appointment. Check their website for info.

Anyone else notice that the EDD website is always "down for maintenance" when you actually need to use it? 🙄

0 coins

Omg yes! It's like they know exactly when I'm gonna try to log in 😂

0 coins

I swear its intentional. They probably cant handle the traffic so they just shut it down lol

0 coins

Has anyone tried faxing their documents instead of mailing? I heard it might be faster but idk if that's just an urban legend at this point.

0 coins

Wait, faxing? What year is it? 😂

0 coins

I actually tried this! It didn't speed things up for me, but at least I had proof that they received my docs.
