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!

Pro tip: if you can't get through on the main line, try calling your local career center. Sometimes they can help or at least transfer you to someone who can.
This! I got through using this method last month. Saved me a ton of headache.

Pro tip: if you get through to someone who can't help, don't hang up! Ask them to transfer you to the right department. Sometimes they can get you through faster than if you called again.
This! 👆 It's like finding a golden ticket if you get any human on the line.
Anyone else feel like they need a degree in bureaucracy just to navigate this system? I swear, half the battle is learning their lingo and decoding all the acronyms 🤣
LOL for real tho. I feel like I could write a dissertation on unemployment claims at this point.
Seriously! And don't even get me started on all the different forms. It's like they're trying to make it as confusing as possible.

Hey OP, when exactly did you file your claim? There was a glitch in the system about a month ago that caused some claims to get stuck. Might be worth mentioning that when you call.
I filed about 6 weeks ago. Thanks for the heads up about the glitch, I'll definitely bring that up!
Unpopular opinion: maybe try going to the office in person if you can? I know its a pain, but I got my issue resolved in one day by showing up. Just bring a book and be prepared to wait.
Wait, you can do that? I thought everything was online/phone only now
Some offices are open for limited in-person services. Check the DEO website for locations near you. It's not advertised much, but it's an option.

I'm in the same boat, payments on hold since December. This sucks so much. Hope you get it sorted soon, OP.

Plot twist: the unemployment office is secretly run by sloths. That's why everything takes foreverrrrr 🦥
LOL 😂 That actually explains a lot!

Anyone else feel like they need a degree in rocket science to navigate the DEO website? 🚀🤓 Asking for a friend...
LOL for real tho. I swear I aged 10 years trying to figure out that site. 👵
Rocket science might actually be easier tbh 😂
Hey OP, don't forget to check if you're eligible for any of the federal extensions or additional programs. Sometimes there's extra help available that isn't super obvious on the main unemployment page.
Thanks for the heads up! I'll definitely look into that. Any idea where I can find info on these extensions?
Check the DEO website under "COVID-19 Resources" or "Federal Programs". They usually list any current extensions or additional benefits there. If you can't find it, give them a call (if you can get through lol).

Idk if this helps, but I finally got my benefits after I uploaded my ID verification docs. Might be worth checking if they need anything from you.

Protip: call right when they open. Like, start dialing 2 minutes before. You'll have a much better chance of getting through.
This! And use multiple phones if you can. I had my wife and I both calling from different lines. We got through way faster.
Doesn't always work tho. I tried this for weeks and still couldn't get through. YMMV

Pro tip: if you can, try calling right when they open. The queue is usually shorter then.

This might sound weird, but have you tried reaching out on Twitter? Sometimes public callouts get their attention.

•Yep, and use relevant hashtags like #unemployment #[yourstate]. Sometimes it works!
