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!

My was 6 weeks ago. They changed everything. My email, phone, mailing address to one in New York....everything. I called and finally got someone to help me get back into my account. I was able to and got paid. I had a message to myself, which I did...3 times and they it all 3 times. When I went to the next 2 times, I haven’t got paid. It’s pending. I the line every day and they tell me everything is ok and I just have to wait for the next to take it out of pending. They won’t connect me to that dept. It’s been a month now. Anyone have this similar problem?

Please, how did you contact edd, I need there customer service cell number

Has anyone every had two interviews a month apart and is awaiting for pay. My job my return to work date for a month and now gave me a second and I’m not sure why

I have two interviews after I first applied to see my and then during a after backdate request, flagged my account and required an another interview. I know it’s frustrating but if they require, you need to do and you will be fine unless there’s no issue. 😀$5 discount link for Claimyr to https://join.claimyr.com/49a083

I’m having trouble getting automatic payments from SDI, they told me that they were having an 3 weeks ago and will pay me on Jan 18 but I haven’t got any issued payments and it’s been over a month. Anybody have the same issue?

Most of people have same issue. EDD temporarily stop payment due to over 345K claims. EDD will require all doctors to verify their ID via ID.me. It may takes over a month again. https://join.claimyr.com/1373f0

I was informed that my edd status after my was supposed to be updated to see if I’m approved or not and it still has not been updated , I spoke with the yesterday and he assured me that everything on his end was supposed to be done yesterday by the end of the day . I’m confused on what’s going on and why hasn’t he fixed anything .

Hello Kathleen! Please change your profile picture to reflect a self-portrait. The from EDD can take up to 72 hours to on their end. Anything outside of that you definitely should stay on top of this and give them a call back. Best of Luck!

I filed a short term disability claim for being out with and in the claim it says pending medical provider form but I got my test through the county health department not a doctor. Does anyone have any advice or experience dealing with short term disability due to Covid?

You must provide the form B part from your doctor. Your can submit the form via online or you can it out to SDI Dept. If you have any any questions, call SDI. https://join.claimyr.com/1373f0
