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!

BTW if none of the fixes work for you, try using a completely different device. My CONNECT account wouldn't work on my laptop AT ALL last month but worked perfectly fine on my sister's iPad. Makes zero sense but that's DEO for you!
UPDATE: For anyone finding this post later - the homepage navigation method worked for me (don't click directly on claim weeks link). I was able to successfully claim my weeks. The system still glitches if I try to use the direct link, but going through the homepage works every time.
Thanks for updating!! This system is so frustrating sometimes!

Have u tried the automated phone system? I couldnt find it online either but when i called the main DEO number (not the regular customer service) and went through the automated menu there was an option specifically for tax documents. Might be worth trying before spending hours trying to talk to a human.
This is a great suggestion! The automated system option is actually pretty useful for document requests. The menu option should be something like "For tax documents or 1099-G information, press 3" (though the exact number might vary). Just make sure you have your claimant ID and PIN ready before calling.
Just wondering did u check ur spam folder in ur email??? Sometimes DEO sends electronic copies and they go to spam. Worth checking!!
I did check my spam folder but nothing there either. I think they only sent it via regular mail based on what the representative told me. But thanks for the suggestion!

Quick update based on recent changes - just last month, the DEO implemented a new processing system for extensions that's been causing some unusual delays. The current average processing time has increased to about 12 business days according to what agents are telling claimants. If you're approaching that timeframe, I'd recommend checking your CONNECT inbox for any requests for additional information. Sometimes they send these without any notification and your extension won't process until you respond.
omg thank u for saying this!!!! i just checked my inbox and there WAS a message asking for my last paystub that i never saw!!! submitted it just now hopefully this fixes my issue too!!!
UPDATE: My extension finally processed! It took exactly 9 business days but this morning when I logged in, my account now shows active with the extended benefits. For anyone else waiting - check your CONNECT inbox daily for any requests (I had one asking me to verify my last employment date), keep claiming weeks even while exhausted, and make sure you're doing all 5 work searches. Thanks for everyone's help and advice!
congrats! glad it worked out 4 u

did u check ur way2go card if u have 1? sometimes they send it there even if u picked direct deposit. suuuuper annoying!
I don't have a Way2Go card, just direct deposit. But maybe they sent one and I didn't realize? I'll check my mail more carefully. Thanks for the suggestion!

One more tip: if you don't see movement in 72 hours as promised, call back and ask specifically for a "BWI ticket number" for your escalation. This is an internal tracking number they use, and having this number will help if you need to follow up again. Every time they say they're escalating something, you should get one of these ticket numbers.

•Thank you! I didn't know to ask for this. I'll definitely call back if I don't see changes in 72 hours and request the BWI ticket number.

FINAL UPDATE: It worked!!! After 6 weeks of nothing happening, I finally got all my back pay deposited yesterday! For anyone else stuck in post-appeal limbo, here's what finally worked for me: 1) Used Claimyr to get through to DEO, 2) Spoke with an appeals department agent who escalated my case, 3) Contacted my state rep who also pushed on my behalf. Three days later, everything was processed and paid. Thanks to everyone who helped with advice!
