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!

I'm in the exact same boat rn. Been waiting for 3 weeks with no update. This system is so broken, it's ridiculous. How are we supposed to support our families like this? 😀

Preach! πŸ™Œ The whole thing needs a complete overhaul. It's not fair to new parents.

Have either of you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes tweeting at them or messaging on Facebook can get a response.

Congrats on the new baby! πŸŽ‰πŸ‘Ά Sorry youre dealing with this stress tho. One thing that helped me was setting up email alerts for my claim. At least then you know if there's any movement.

Has anyone had luck with the EDD's new chatbot? I've been trying to use it but it seems pretty useless tbh

LOL that thing is about as helpful as a chocolate teapot πŸ˜‚

It's okay for super basic stuff, but anything complicated and it just tells you to call... which gets you nowhere πŸ™ƒ

Dont forget to factor in taxes! EDD doesn't withhold anything, so you might wanna set some money aside so you're not caught off guard come tax season.

Anyone else feel like we need a complete overhaul of the unemployment system? It's 2023 and we're still dealing with these archaic processes. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

For real. My cousin works in tech and says their systems are from like the 80s. No wonder everything's always breaking down.

Plot twist: what if the birth certificate got lost in the mail? Might be worth resubmitting just in case. I've heard horror stories of docs never making it to EDD.

Oh no, I hadn't even thought of that! 😱 I'll try to submit it again online if I can. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hang in there, OP! I know it's tough, but your little one is worth it. Try to enjoy these precious moments with your baby, even with the stress. The money will come eventually. Sending positive vibes your way! β€οΈπŸ‘Ά

I'm in the same boat, OP. Been waiting on my payment for 3 weeks now. This whole system is a joke. Good luck to you πŸ˜”
