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!

For real. It's almost like they make it difficult on purpose so people give up.

Conspiracy theory: they're hoping we'll all just go away so they can keep the money 👀

Pro tip: if you have a friend or family member who speaks another language, try the non-English phone lines. They often have shorter wait times and the reps usually speak English too.

lol welcome to the wonderful world of EDD where nothing makes sense and timeframes are made up. Seriously tho, hope you get it sorted soon. The waiting game suuuucks.

Have you tried faxing your documents? I know it sounds archaic, but sometimes that gets faster results than submitting online. Worth a shot!

Faxing? What year is it? 😂 But for real, I'll try anything at this point. Do you know what fax number to use?

Lol I know right? Here's the number I used: 1-855-027-1940. Make sure to include your claim number on every page!

Classic government efficiency at work 🙄 They probably "lost" your paperwork or something. Buckle up, you're in for a wild ride!

Sorry, didn't mean to be insensitive. Just frustrated with the system. Hope OP gets it sorted out soon.

Hey, don't panic! This happened to me last month. Turned out they just needed to verify my identity. I uploaded a copy of my driver's license and social security card, and it was resolved in a few days.

That's good to hear it got resolved quickly! I'll check if they need any documents from me. Thanks for sharing your experience!

This happened to me last year. Turns out they needed additional documentation but never notified me. Might be worth checking if they need anything else from you.

I swear, dealing with EDD is like playing a game where the rules keep changing and no one tells you. Hang in there, OP!
