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!

Nichelle, I’m so sorry, that’s so annoying and frustrating. I would call again and see if they let you resubmit or send in the again since are long process.

Thank you. I asked for a manager call back, but I had the rudest rep. These people need to be fired and held accountable.

I had 2 rude reps! I couldn’t handle the first one so I hanged up. 2nd one, at the end of the call I asked for his name and he hanged up on me. I was so mad!

Leilani, when your husband received his check did they pay back from they owed him since November? Like a lump sum?

Contact edd tomorrow to request to push it through again. If still not helped, contact a local assembly member involved. 20 days or 4 months seem unfair! It’s frustrating but best is still to speak with Edd to push again. https://join.claimyr.com/49a083 (First call $5 off for claimyr to call Edd) Local assembly member https://findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov/

How long after you won the claim did you call to get your card unblocked ? I’m going through the same issues I won’t my over 2 weeks ago and my card still isn’t unlocked

Called both , keep saying I’m just waiting on everything to clear up . . That’s why I was inquiring about the timeline

To avoid this, I just asked for a paper to be mailed. Its the only other option.

Hi Edgar, Yup, they are correct. It’s taking about 1 month & 1/2 to 2 months for them to receive and it in, after it scans in and give it another 2 weeks for them to verify. Once it’s been a month from when you sent it, I suggest calling weekly from them to keep on checking it’s been received and scanned! My husband is going into 3 months without income.
