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!

Yo diría que pruebes primero con la opción de $20. Si ves que tarda mucho, siempre puedes actualizar después. No pierdes nada por intentar primero la opción más económica.
Alguien sabe si hay alguna diferencia en el proceso dependiendo del estado en el que vives? Estoy en California y no sé si eso afecta en algo
Sip, cada estado tiene sus propias reglas y procesos. En Cali suele ser más lento por la cantidad de gente, así que la actualización podría valer más la pena ahí.

Has anyone heard about the new bill they're trying to pass that might affect unemployment benefits? Wonder if that'll make the renewal process any easier (or harder 😩
I heard something about that! Apparently, it's supposed to streamline the whole process. But knowing the government, who knows if it'll actually help 🙄

Preach! 🙌 The whole system needs an overhaul.

Pro tip: si logras comunicarte con alguien, pide hablar con un especialista de nivel 2. A veces los agentes regulares no tienen la autoridad para resolver problemas complejos.
Gracias por el consejo! Definitivamente lo intentaré si logro hablar con alguien.

This whole system is rigged against us, I swear. They make it so hard on purpose so people just give up. Don't let them win, OP!
Take off the tinfoil hat, bro. It's not a conspiracy, just good old-fashioned bureaucratic incompetence. 🙄
Wake up, sheeple! 🐑 The government doesn't want to pay out benefits. It's all part of the plan!
Hey OP, how long has it been since your doctor mailed the form? Sometimes it can take up to 3-4 weeks to process, especially if they're backlogged.
It's been about 5 weeks now. That's why I'm starting to get really worried. 😰
Oof, yeah that's definitely too long. Def time to follow up aggressively. Good luck!

anyone else feel like the whole system is designed to make us give up? 🤡
100%. Its a feature, not a bug 🙃
Conspiracy theory: they make it confusing on purpose so people don't claim benefits they're entitled to 👀

Have you tried checking your spam folder? Sometimes EDD emails end up there and you miss important updates.
Good call! Just checked and didn't see anything, but I'll keep an eye on it from now on.

Pro tip: start a job search log if you haven't already. Sometimes these reviews are just to make sure you're actively looking for work. Having documentation ready can speed things up.
This! 💯 I keep a spreadsheet with dates, company names, and positions I've applied for. Saved my butt during a review.

This whole system is broken af. Why do we even have to jump through all these hoops just to get the benefits we're entitled to? 🤬
