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!

Hey OP, how long has your claim been pending? I've heard that anything over 3 weeks might mean there's an identity verification issue.

¿Alguien sabe si las penalizaciones de 12 semanas son estándar o varían según el caso? Estoy curioso sobre cómo funciona todo esto.

0 coins

Por lo que sé, pueden variar. Depende de la razón de la penalización y si es tu primera vez o una reincidencia.

Chicos, acabo de pasar por esto. La clave está en ser SUPER persistente con las llamadas. Yo literalmente llamé 50 veces en un día hasta que me contestaron. Es agotador, pero funciona.

50 veces?! 😱 Eso es dedicación. Respect ✊

Plot twist: what if the blank form is actually correct and you didn't receive any unemployment benefits last year? 🤔

0 coins

Lol, I wish! But nah, I definitely received benefits. Just can't seem to get the paperwork to prove it 😅

Has anyone had luck calling at a specific time of day? I've heard early morning is best but idk if that's just a myth.

0 coins

I got through around 10:30 AM on a Tuesday. Might've been pure luck tho 🤷‍♂️

0 coins

Early morning worked for me! Called at 8:05 AM and got through after only 20 minutes on hold.

0 coins

lol watch them pick up immediately when it's time to tell us we owe THEM money 🤡

Why is this so accurate tho

Has anyone tried faxing? I know it sounds old school, but I've heard some people have had success getting responses that way.

Honestly, at this point, I'd send a carrier pigeon if I thought it would work.
