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!

Man, reading all these stories makes me so angry. We shouldn't have to jump through all these hoops just to get what we're entitled to. The whole system needs an overhaul.
Preach! 👏 It's like they make it difficult on purpose to discourage people.
Totally agree. We need to organize and demand better treatment. This is unacceptable.
Hey OP, hang in there. I know it's tough but try to stay positive. My claim was pending for 8 months (yeah, even longer than yours) but it finally got resolved. Sending good vibes your way! ❤️
8 months?! Oh man, that must have been brutal. Thanks for the encouragement, it helps to know I'm not alone in this.

Here's what you need to do: 1. Double-check all your info: Make sure you're entering everything EXACTLY as it appears on your official documents. 2. Try a different browser: Sometimes it's just a technical glitch. 3. Call the helpline: Yes, it sucks, but it's often the only way. Try early morning or late afternoon for shorter wait times. 4. Use the online chat if available: Sometimes faster than calling. 5. Contact your local representative: They can often help push things through. 6. As a last resort, visit an office in person: Bring ALL your documents. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up! The system is frustrating but you'll get through eventually. Good luck!
This is great advice! I'd add one more thing - document EVERYTHING. Every call, every attempt, names of reps you talk to. It might come in handy later.
Thank you so much for this detailed response! I'll definitely try all of these. Fingers crossed something works! 🤞

Anybody know if theres a way to do this online? Seems crazy that we have to call in 2023 🤔

There used to be an online option but they got rid of it. go figure 🤷♂️

Has anyone tried contacting their local representative? I've heard sometimes they can help push things through.

Just a heads up, I heard they're doing a big sweep of pending accounts next week. Might be worth trying to call again then. Good luck everyone!
