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!

idk if this helps but I had a similar issue. Turns out there was a glitch in their system and my SSN was entered wrong. Double check all your info when u get someone on the line!
This is why we need to overhaul the entire unemployment system. It's not built to handle the volume of claims we're seeing. We should be pushing our reps for real change!

•Preach! 🙌 The system's been broken for years, but now it's impossible to ignore.
Yeah but good luck getting politicians to care about fixing it. They only pay attention when it affects them directly 🙄

Protip: When you call, immediately ask for a tier 2 specialist. The first-level reps often can't help with backdating claims.
This is the way. Tier 2 specialists are the real MVPs. Saved me hours of frustration.

Am I the only one who thinks its ridiculous that we have to jump through so many hoops just to get what we're entitled to? The whole system needs an overhaul smh
Maya Jackson
•Preach! 🙌 It's like they make it difficult on purpose to discourage people from claiming.
Totally agree. We need to start contacting our representatives about this. It's unacceptable.

lol welcome to the club 🤡 ny unemployment is a joke. good luck getting anyone on the phone to help you
Fr fr 💯 I spent WEEKS trying to get through. System's more broken than my ex's promises 😂
Try claimyr.com if you're really stuck. It costs a bit but it got me through to a real person when nothing else worked.

Sounds like wrongful termination to me. You might wanna talk to a lawyer, not just for unemployment but to see if you have a case against your former employer.

Anyone else feel like the whole unemployment system is held together with duct tape and prayers? 🤣 Good luck navigating this mess, OP!
Lmao truth 💯 It's like they designed it to be as confusing as possible
QuantumQuest
•Duct tape and prayers 😂 I'm dead. But seriously, it's a nightmare sometimes.
Hey, has anyone had luck appealing a denial for partial benefits? I'm in a similar situation but got denied and idk what to do next.
Thanks for the advice! Did you use a lawyer or handle it yourself?
Mei Zhang
•I did it myself, but it was stressful. If you can afford it, a lawyer might be worth it. Or try that claimyr.com service to at least talk to someone at unemployment first.

Pro tip: if u get an agent on the line DO NOT HANG UP no matter what. even if they say they cant help, ask to be transfered. stay on that line like ur life depends on it lol
