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!

Quick question - when you faxed your docs, did you include your claim number on every page? I've heard that can help prevent them from 'losing' your stuff.
I did on the cover sheet, but not every page. That's a good tip, I'll try that next time. Thanks!
Guys I finaly got through on the phone after trying for WEEKS. heres what I did: 1. Call exactly at 8:01 am 2. Press 1 for English (or 2 for Spanish) 3. Then 1 for claim questions 4. Then 2 for employer 5. THEN 4 for general info Somehow this got me to a real person in like 20 minutes! no idea why but it worked 🤷♂️
You cracked the code! 🕵️♂️ Gonna try this tomorrow, thanks!
I've been playing phone menu roulette for days, will def give this a shot

Unpopular opinion: maybe try looking for work instead of waiting for a handout? 🤷♂️
Dude, read the room. Not everyone can just magically find a job overnight. 🙄

oof, sounds rough buddy. i had a similar issue last year and it took MONTHS to resolve. my advice? patience and persistence. also, start meditating cuz youre gonna need zen levels of calm to deal with this bs 🧘♂️
Have you considered reaching out to a legal aid society? Many offer free consultations for cases like this. They might be able to give you some direction or even represent you if things get complicated.
I hadn't even thought about legal aid. That's a great suggestion, thank you! I'll look into local options.

Has anyone tried reaching out on social media? I've heard some people have had luck getting responses that way.

Not to be that guy, but have you tried faxing them? I know it sounds archaic, but I got a response within a week after sending a fax. Might be worth a shot!

This is why we need universal basic income. The current system is clearly not working for people when they need it most.
