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: Set up direct deposit if you can. It's way faster than waiting for checks in the mail. Also, don't forget about taxes! They don't always withhold enough and you don't wanna be surprised come tax season.

Is it just me or does anyone else think its ridiculous how complicated they make this process? Like, we're already dealing with family stuff, why add all this stress? 🙄

Preach! 🙌 The whole system needs an overhaul. It's 2023, why can't this be more streamlined?

Totally agree. I work in tech and I'm always shocked at how outdated government systems are. Someone needs to disrupt this space!

Ugh, I'm in the same boat. Been waiting on my full benefits for 3 months now. This system is broken af 😤

Plot twist: what if we all showed up at the EDD office with lawn chairs and snacks? Can't ignore us if we're right there lol

Anybody else notice how they always seem to 'lose' our documents? I've had to send the same forms like 3 times now 🙄

Hey OP, hang in there. I know it's tough but it will get sorted eventually. In the meantime, check out local food banks if you're struggling. No shame in getting help when you need it. ❤️

Have you checked your spam folder? Sometimes important emails from EDD end up there. Also, make sure your contact info is up to date in their system.

Unpopular opinion: maybe we should all show up at the EDD office and protest. Might get some media attention and force them to address the delays. Who's with me? ✊

Idk man, seems like a waste of time. They don't care about us little people. 😒

That's exactly why we need to make ourselves heard! If we don't speak up, nothing will change.

Has anyone heard about the new policy changes? I heard they're supposed to speed up processing times, but idk if it's actually helping.

I saw something about that too. Supposedly they hired more staff, but I haven't noticed any difference tbh.

Classic government move. Promise improvements, deliver disappointment. 🙄
