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!

I knw this sounds weird but try calling your local IRS office instead of the main number. They sometimes have appointments available and can look up your refund status right there.
Had a similar issue with my ny unemployment and federal taxes. What worked for me was going thru my state senator's office. The IRS has liaisons with congressional offices. Google your state senator, call their district office, ask for constituent services.

wait are u supposed to be certifying even if ur self employed?? i thought that ended with pua??
Vince Eh
•If you qualify for regular unemployment (had enough W-2 income), you can still collect even if your most recent job was self-employment. That's different from the old pandemic programs.
oh got it thx for clearing that up
Sunny Wang
call them ASAP. people here saying payments are coming through are lucky. my brother had a similar issue and his payment got held for "identity verification" for 3 weeks. don't risk it just call.
Sunny Wang
•Yeah but only after he finally got through to someone on the phone. Emailing them did nothing.

I know this sounds weird but try calling right when they open (7:30am) or right before they close (6:45pm). I've had better luck getting through during those times vs mid-day when everyone's calling.
I'll try that tomorrow morning, thank you!
You're gonna need to call them, and it's gonna suck. The whole system is designed to be frustrating enough that people give up. I had to call 46 times before I got through, and that was at 7:31am on a Tuesday. Once I finally reached someone, they fixed it in like 2 minutes. So stupid.

•Or just use claimyr.com and save yourself the hassle. They'll call repeatedly for you and connect when they get through.
Never heard of it but anything's better than calling 500 times a day 😂

make SURE you're completing your work search requirements while you wait!! they can use that as a reason to deny your extension if audited later!
Good point! I've been applying to at least 5 jobs a week and keeping records of everything.
Smart. I got burned on this once because I didn't document properly. Keep those receipts!
Kara Yoshida
whatever you do DONT STOP CERTIFYING!!! Even if it looks like nothing is happening. I stopped for 2 weeks cuz I thought it wasn't working and lost those payments forever ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Esmeralda Gómez
I had this exact thing! Bus driver for 7 years and I saw that form too. I couldn't get anyone on the phone so I went to my local workforce office and they told me it was a pandemic thing that doesn't apply to me. You can just ignore it.
