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.
It's been about 2 weeks now. Getting worried it might be heading that way tho 😕
Oof, yeah that's rough. Might wanna start gathering extra ID docs just in case. Better to be prepared!

¿Alguien sabe si las penalizaciones de 12 semanas son estándar o varían según el caso? Estoy curioso sobre cómo funciona todo esto.
Por lo que sé, pueden variar. Depende de la razón de la penalización y si es tu primera vez o una reincidencia.

Plot twist: what if the blank form is actually correct and you didn't receive any unemployment benefits last year? 🤔
Lol, I wish! But nah, I definitely received benefits. Just can't seem to get the paperwork to prove it 😅

You're not alone. The system is broken af 😤
For real. It's like they're punishing us for being unemployed. Not cool.

Here's what you need to know about extended benefits: • They're only available when unemployment is high in your state • You must have exhausted your regular unemployment insurance • Your benefit amount might be different from your regular UI • You'll need to continue certifying for benefits weekly • They may ask about your job search efforts Be prepared to answer questions about why you think you qualify. Have you been actively looking for work? Did you turn down any job offers? These things can affect your eligibility. Also, keep in mind that the rules for extended benefits can change based on state and federal laws. What was true a few months ago might not be the case now. Good luck with your call! Let us know how it goes.
