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 phone, try reaching out to them on Twitter. Sometimes their social media team can help or at least escalate your case.
Oh that's smart, I didn't even think of that. I'll give it a shot, thanks!
Here's what worked for me: 1. Go to the ID.ME website 2. Click on 'Forgot Password' 3. Enter your email 4. On the next screen, choose 'I don't have access to this phone number' 5. They'll give you options to verify another way Hope this helps!
This is the way ☝️ Worked for me too when I changed my number.
You're a lifesaver! I'll try this right now and report back.

lol my brother did this and then complained to me for months when he got hit with a biggg tax bill. dont be like my brother.
Btw just to add one more thing - if you do decide not to withhold, you can make estimated quarterly tax payments to the IRS to avoid a penalty for underpayment. That's what I did when I was on unemployment. It's a bit more work but gives you more flexibility with your money throughout the year.
I think I'm going to just have them withhold. I'm not organized enough to handle quarterly payments and would probably forget. Better to just get less now than stress about it later.

Update on my situation - I finally got through to DEO with that Claimyr service I mentioned. Turns out there was an earnings discrepancy between what I reported and what my employer reported for my last quarter. The agent was able to resolve it immediately once I explained that I had picked up extra shifts during those weeks. My benefits were released two days later, and I was able to catch up on rent. Don't give up - sometimes these issues can be resolved quickly once you actually get through to the right person.
That's encouraging to hear. I'm going to try calling again tomorrow, and if that doesn't work, I might try the service you mentioned. I just can't afford to wait much longer.
I've been helping people with DEO issues for a while now, and here's my advice: 1. Try calling right when they open at 7:30am - the queue fills up within minutes 2. Check your CONNECT inbox daily for fact-finding questionnaires - sometimes they send these without notification 3. Make sure ALL your work search activities are logged properly 4. If you have an adjudication issue, be aware they're required by law to resolve it within 21 days, but they rarely meet this requirement 5. If you reach 8 weeks without resolution, contact the DEO Reemployment Assistance Help Center and specifically request an escalation Hang in there - the system is frustrating but persistence usually pays off eventually.
Thank you for these specific steps. I didn't know about the 21-day requirement - that's helpful information I can mention when I call. I've been checking CONNECT daily but haven't received any questionnaires. I'll definitely try the early morning call strategy tomorrow.

Just checking back - did your payment ever arrive? Mine finally came through this morning, so hopefully yours did too!
YES! Just checked my account after seeing your comment and it's there! What a relief. Thanks everyone for the advice and support. Definitely seems like DEO is having some temporary delays with their payment processing.

The state Senate got involved and you still don't have answers? That's wild. Our system is so broken, it's not even funny anymore. Hang in there, OP. 💪

•Tell me about it. I thought getting them involved would speed things up, but nope. Still stuck in limbo 🙃

Pro tip: Next time you call, ask to speak with a tier 2 representative. They usually have more authority to make changes and give you real answers. Don't let them brush you off!
