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!

Here's what I've learned after dealing with this for months: 1. Their system auto-dials multiple people at once 2. First agent to pick up gets the call, others get dropped 3. It counts as an attempt even if you don't answer 4. Best times to call back are early morning (7:30am) or right after lunch If you're desperate to get through, I'd recommend using claimyr.com. Yeah it costs money but they handle the hold time and menu navigation. Saved me days of frustration. Also, send a secure message through your online account every time this happens. Create a paper trail. And if you have a hearing coming up, these failed attempts could actually help your case.

Look, heres what you need to do to resolve this. First, keep trying the fraud department at 888-598-2077. Best times to call are right when they open or an hour before close. Second, use claimyr.com if you keep striking out - worth the $20 to get through. Third, while waiting, send a message through your online account AND email your state representative. Sometimes they can help push things through. Finally, if you have any documents from 4 years ago showing your legitimate claims, get those ready. They might ask for proof of employment/income from that period. I went through this last year and it took about 3 weeks to resolve but persistence is key. Don't give up!

Let me break this down for everyone about certification times and what happens if you miss them. The system gives you a pretty decent window to certify each week. You can certify starting Sunday at 12:01 AM through midnight Saturday. The 7:30 PM cutoff is just for PHONE certification. Online certification works 24/7 during your window. If you miss your window completely, you'll need to call them to backdate the certification. That's where services like claimyr.com come in handy since getting through to an agent can be rough. Missing one certification won't end your benefits - you just might get paid late. Just make sure you certify ASAP and try not to make it a habit!
