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!

Guys, I hate to be that person, but have you checked your spam folder? I found out my EDD emails were going there and I missed some important info. Just throwing it out there!
OMG 😱 I never even thought to check there. Gonna do that right now, thanks!
Here's a detailed breakdown of what you should do: 1. Check your UI Online account for any pending tasks or messages. 2. Make sure all your certifications are up to date. 3. Verify your identity if you haven't already (they're being extra strict about this lately). 4. Try contacting them through UI Online - sometimes they respond faster this way. 5. If calling, use this script: 'Hello, I noticed my last payment was over a month ago, and I haven't received any payments since. Could you please check if there are any issues or delays with my account? I've made sure all my certifications are up to date.' 6. If all else fails, contact your local assembly member or state senator. They can sometimes expedite EDD issues. Hope this helps! Hang in there, we're all in this together. 💪
Contacting my assembly member actually worked for me. Took about a week, but they got it sorted!
Thank you so much for this detailed advice! I'll definitely follow these steps.

Just a heads up, I heard they changed some of the eligibility requirements recently. Make sure you double-check that you still qualify before you go through the whole process!

LPT: If you're having trouble getting your disability payments, try contacting your state senator or assembly member's office. They often have staff dedicated to helping constituents with state agency issues. It's literally their job to help you!
This! 👆 My senator's office helped me resolve a 3-month delay in just two weeks.

This whole situation is so messed up. We're already dealing with health issues, and now we gotta fight just to get the benefits we're entitled to? The system is broken, man. 😤

Here's what I've learned from my experience with SDI: 1. Be persistent. Call every day if you have to. 2. Keep a log of all your calls and who you spoke to. 3. Make sure all your medical documentation is up to date and submitted. 4. Check your online account regularly for updates. 5. If you're really stuck, consider reaching out to your state representative or even local media. 6. Join Facebook groups or forums dedicated to SDI issues. Sometimes you can get insider tips. 7. If you can afford it, that Claimyr service others mentioned might be worth a shot. Remember, you're entitled to these benefits. Don't give up! It's a frustrating process, but stay strong. 💪
