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!

Just a heads up, they've been really strict about deadlines lately. Make sure you submit everything on time or it could delay your benefits.
has anyone else noticed that the hold music is like... weirdly catchy? or am i just losing it from being on hold so long 🤣
omg yes! I caught myself humming it at the grocery store the other day. I think I'm officially broken 😅
Plot twist: it's actually a form of mind control to make us forget why we called in the first place 👽

Hey OP, what time of day were you calling? I've had better luck getting through in the afternoons.
I was calling around noon. Maybe I'll try later in the day next time, thanks for the tip!

idk if this helps, but I had a similar issue last year. Turns out they had my birthdate wrong in the system which flagged my account for review. Might be worth double-checking all your personal info is correct.
Oh wow, I hadn't even thought of that. I'll definitely check. Thanks for the tip!

Anyone else notice that the EDD website is down... again? 🙄 How are we supposed to check our claim status if the site never works?
Classic EDD. Their tech is from like 1995 I swear
Try using incognito mode or clearing your cache. Sometimes that helps me get in.
I'm in the same boat as OP, finally got through yesterday! Here's what worked for me: - Call right at 8:01 AM - If you get the "too many callers" message, hang up and redial immediately - Use the 2511 number and press 1, then 2, then 4 - Have all your info ready (SSN, claim date, last employer, etc.) - Be super nice to the rep, they deal with angry people all day Hope this helps someone else! Don't give up, you'll get through eventually!
What's the full 2511 number? Can you share it?
@profile14 It's 833-978-2511. Good luck!

Not to be that guy, but have you checked their website? Sometimes they post system outage updates there. Might save you some time if their whole system is down.
