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 know if this affects direct deposit and debit cards differently? i have the unemployment debit card
Both get delayed the same way. The delay happens before the money even gets sent to either option.
Friendly reminder to everyone: screenshot your certification confirmation pages! Every time! Holiday delays are normal but system glitches happen too. Always keep proof you certified each week.
THIS!!! Saved my butt when they claimed I didn't certify one week!
And email the screenshots to yourself so you don't lose them if your phone breaks/gets lost

After 3 moths of my account being locked in review status, I found claimyr.com through reddit. Got connected to an agent in like 30 minutes who cleared everything up. Wish I'd known about it sooner instead of stressing for months! my backpay hit my account 2 days later
does it actually work? i've been trying to get thru for weeks
yep! they just call for you and connect when they get a human. saved me literally hundreds of redial attempts

the system is completely clogged rn because of all the tech layoffs hitting NY. my friend who works in the UI office said they're getting 3x the normal applications since april.
I was in the EXACT same situation! Company went under with no warning. If you have the FEIN that's HUGE - they can verify your claim much faster. Mine took 5 weeks from application to first payment once I got someone on the phone. I couldn't get through for weeks until I tried claimyr.com - totally worth it, got my backpay released in one call.
what's this claimyr thing? never heard of it
It's a service that calls unemployment for you and stays on hold, then rings your phone when a real person answers. Saved me hours of frustration. claimyr.com

Are you SURE you've been certifying every week? Even if you miss one week of certification it can mess up your whole claim. They don't make it clear but you have to keep certifying even if you aren't getting paid.
Yes, I've been religious about certifying every single week. Haven't missed one.

You NEED to talk to someone. Period. Nothing will happen until you get a live person who can look at the claim. Try calling every morning at 7:58am and hitting the right options the second they open. That worked for me after dozens of failed attempts.

is your husband checking his spam/junk email folders? sometimes the DOL sends important emails that get filtered out. also check physical mail - they sometimes send letters requiring response within a certain timeframe.

•Good point - I'll have him check both of these. Would hate for it to be something simple like that.
