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!

Has anyone had luck with the EDD website? I've been trying to update my info online but keep getting error messages. wondering if its just me or if the site is busted again

The website is always a mess. Try clearing your cache and cookies, sometimes that helps. If not, you might have to bite the bullet and call them 😕

Unpopular opinion: the system works fine if you just follow the instructions carefully. I had zero issues with my claim. 🤷‍♂️

Lol ok bootlicker 🙄 Just because it worked for you doesn't mean the system isn't broken for most people

Whoa, chill. Just sharing my experience. No need for name-calling.

Has anyone else noticed that EDD seems to be slower lately? I've been hearing a lot of similar stories about delays. Wonder if they're short-staffed or something.

0 coins

Yeah, I read somewhere that they had budget cuts recently. Probably impacting processing times.

Its always something with them. First covid now budget cuts. We cant catch a break!

Hang in there, OP! We're all in the same boat. The system sucks but eventually it'll work out. Sending good vibes your way! ❤️

I had a similar issue last month. Turns out, I needed to clear my browser cache and cookies. After that, the option to update payment info magically appeared. Might be worth a shot!

0 coins

Oh wow, I wouldn't have thought of that. Ill give it a try, thanks!

Here's a detailed guide on updating payment info: 1. Log into your account 2. Go to 'Account Settings' or 'Billing' 3. Look for 'Payment Methods' or 'Manage Payments' 4. Select the payment method you want to update/remove 5. Follow the prompts to edit or delete If you can't find these options, try: - Using a different browser - Clearing cache and cookies - Checking for any account restrictions If all else fails, contact customer support directly. Be sure to have your account info ready! Hope this helps! 🙌

I'm convinced they're just sitting on a pile of our claims, laughing at us struggling to pay bills. The whole system needs an overhaul.

Preach! 🙌 It's like they forget we're real people with real problems.

Tinfoil hat time: what if they're deliberately slow to save money? 🤔

Has anyone tried going to the local EDD office in person? I've heard mixed things, but I'm getting desperate enough to try anything at this point.

0 coins

I tried last week. Waited 3 hours just to be told they can't help with PFL claims in person. Total waste of time. 😑

Ugh, that sucks. Thanks for saving me a trip tho!
