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!

anyone else feel like the whole system is designed to make us give up? 🤔

•Preach 🙌 It's a total clown show 🤡
Conspiracy theory: they make it hard on purpose so people just give up and they save money 👀

I think your supervisor's statement is key here. Make sure it clearly states you were laid off and did not quit. At the hearing, they'll probably ask why your employer is claiming otherwise.

Call ur local legal aid! Most counties have free legal services that help with unemployment hearings. They can even represent you at no cost if you qualify financially. Google "[your county] legal aid unemployment" and something should come up.
THIS!! I had legal aid help me and it made a huge difference. The lawyer knew exactly what to say and what evidence was most important.

Be super careful with this. My friend got in trouble for putting unemployment as business income on an SBA form. They are totally different things and mixing them up can get u flagged for potential fraud even if its just an honest mistake.
lmao the fact that you even have to ask this shows how terrible these systems are designed. nobody can understand this stuff without a law degree 🤡
fr fr the whole system is designed to confuse people so they can deny applications
Had to hire an accountant just to fill out basic forms. Cost me $300 but at least I know it was done right.

they tried the same BS with me last year! kept saying they couldn't issue just the federal part. finally i threatened to file a complaint with the US Dept of Labor and suddenly they found a way to do it. don't give up!

Not so fun fact: ny unemployment intentionally makes these processes difficult and gives agents limited training on complex cases. it's literally designed to make people give up on benefits they're entitled to. the worse their numbers look, the better it is for politicians who want to say they're "combating fraud" or "reducing dependency." FIGHT FOR YOUR MONEY!

Make sure to appeal if you think the overpayment was a mistake! You have 30 days from the date on the notice.

•3 months? That's insane! Have you tried contacting your local representative? Sometimes they can help speed things up.
