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!

FYI going back to work doesn't ALWAYS auto-stop your benefits. My friend just put in the hours he worked and still got partial benefits for that week. The system is just super inconsistent.
Depends if you click "returned to work" vs just reporting hours worked. Two different things in the system but they don't explain that clearly.

Make sure you didnt get an email saying you need to recertify or submit additional documentation. They love to randomly require that stuff and not tell you until your payment is late.
Anybody else notice that everytime there's a holiday weekend the payments get all messed up the following week? Happens every single time I swear.
AstroAce
•Omg yes!! I've been collecting since September and every single holiday creates some kind of issue. The system is so outdated.

One thing I learned from my nightmare with unemployment: WRITE DOWN NAMES AND ID NUMBERS of every person you talk to!!! I had one agent tell me they fixed my claim, but they didn't. When I called back, no record of the call existed. Always always get their ID number.
StarStrider
•omg yes. I write everything down now in a notebook dedicated just to this nightmare. dates, times, names, what they said, what they promised, EVERYTHING.

honestly sounds like youre lucky. took them 4 months to figure out my backpay and new claim situation. the DOL is a disaster.

did she get the email from id.me saying verification complete? if yes then its just waiting. if no then something went wrong and you should contact id.me not DOL
Yes, she got the confirmation email from ID.me. Sounds like we just need to be patient then.

nobody seems to be mentioning that there might be a different issue here - sometimes people get cut off because of identity verification problems, not base period problems. Make sure when you talk to someone you ask if there are ANY holds on your account, not just wage issues.

•How would I know if it's an identity issue? The website just says my claim is inactive.

•You wouldn't know unless you talk to someone. The website is useless for showing the actual problem. Could be identity verification, could be wage base period, could be a dozen other things. You need to get a human on the phone.
