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!

Have you tried reaching out to your local representative? Sometimes they can help push things through or at least get you in touch with the right person.

0 coins

I hadn't thought of that. How would I go about contacting them?

0 coins

Just google your state and district representatives. Most have contact forms on their websites. Explain your situation and they might be able to help!

0 coins

Not to freak you out more, but you might want to check your credit report too. If someone got into your PFL account, they might have enough info to do more damage.

Oh god, I didn't even think of that. Thanks for the heads up, I'll definitely look into it 😰

Plot twist: what if it wasnt hacked and you just forgot your password? 🤔 Happens to the best of us lol

0 coins

Lol I wish! But nah, I use a password manager and it's definitely not what I set it to 😅

Anyone else notice that the questions are kinda confusing? Like, they ask if you're able to work full-time, but what if you're looking for part-time? The wording tripped me up.

0 coins

YES! I thought it was just me. They really need to update those forms.

If ur unsure, always call and ask. Better safe than sorry with this stuff

PSA: Don't forget to certify every two weeks once you're approved! Set a reminder on your phone or something. Miss a certification and you could lose benefits.

Have you tried reaching out on social media? Sometimes companies respond faster there to avoid bad PR.

That's a good idea! I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

If only it were that simple 😩 Unfortunately, I need access to the old account info

I'm in the same boat, been trying to reach EDD for 3 weeks now. Anyone know if they're planning to improve their phone system anytime soon?

0 coins

LOL good one. EDD? Improve? Those words don't go together. 🤣

Ugh, you're probably right. Guess I'll just keep banging my head against the wall. 😫

Has anyone tried using the online portal instead of calling? I heard they've been pushing people to use that more.

0 coins

I tried, but my issue was too complicated for the online system. Ended up having to call anyway. 🙄

0 coins

The online portal is okay for simple stuff, but anything complex and youre back to square one trying to call
