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 just spoke with a edd agent she was extremely rude and told me she was going to put in the notes that I was rude. 5 minutes later I got a email from edd that they can’t verify my identity but I e verified my identity Thru Id me when I initially applied last month. I’ve been paid but I’m trying to request back pay any suggestions for this ?

So- they stopped paying me because they said I didn’t report funds from some months. How do I this? Or how do I proceed? I still need help and do not have any work/income. And the weird thing is they still keep emailing me to every two weeks and then I like regular but the money just never goes into my and every time I have gotten through they say I need to speak to a and I never able to get through stop it

That’s why people use to get Edd call. https://join.claimyr.com/49a083 $5 off.

I understand how scared it is… It all depends on who answers a call. I had rude, unhelpful rep and nice, professional rep both. If you can wait to see payment will be automatically paid, but Edd tell you you need to speak with Edd specialist. They do manually. If it’s been over months, I assume it’s identity issues holding your money In this case, you must speak to Edd

1 coin

I had two pending. One day over 6 weeks .. I waited for automatic payment but it did not happen. I used this and found identity issue There’s no issue but they said that. Also contact your assembly member for help They help you edd issue as well

I've been on for 1 hour.  When a answered the phone he asked some personal info and then said I need to put you on for the next available so we can review your claim.

You are on for a tier 2 agent! Stay on the line, the could be long.

I appreciate it :) I will continue to be on

It will be worth the wait. At least u get all your questions answered and don’t have to call again

I'm  not having any luck. keeps hanging up.

Unfortunately their system sucks and with increased calls especially now since everyone is trying to get paid before stuff ends the drops are more frequent. Keep using the 10 free calls , if you need to contact for additional help with calls. But unfortunately there is nothing that can be done. I was on hold for 4 hours and got dropped , then again for 3 hours. It’s very discouraging but the outcome once you have been successful on getting thru is much more rewarding

1 coin

Thank you.

I was I. The same boat for 3 weeks and yesterday I finally broke down and paid for and got a within a hour. She submitted my backdate. I have a link that will save u $5. It’s definitely beats the waiting. https://join.claimyr.com/5079b8

just called but it’s silent. Nothing is heard. Just waiting here. Is this normal? When they do they talk?

There might be an issue with your call. I had on music on hold for 3 hours before I was able to talk to someone.
