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 โ€“ 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!

Let me break this down for everyone dealing with missed certifications: First, you MUST speak with a rep to fix this - no way around it. Your options are: 1. Keep calling the regular number (888-581-5812) but good luck getting through 2. Use claimyr.com - they'll wait on hold for you ($20 fee but saves hours of frustration) 3. Try calling right when they open at 8am or just before closing at 6pm When you do get through, the rep can backdate your claim and process the missed payment. They might ask why you missed it - just be honest. Usually takes 2-3 business days for the payment to hit your account after they fix it. PRO TIP: Set reminders for weekly certification so this doesn't happen again. You can certify anytime between Sunday-Saturday but don't wait until the last minute! Hope this helps everyone in the same boat! ๐Ÿ™

Been on UI for 3 months now and here's what I've learned about payment processing: - System starts updating around 7:30am - Most payments show as released by noon - Bank deposits usually hit next day - Sometimes takes until evening to update - If nothing by next day, might need to call If you need to reach someone, use claimyr.com. They handle the phone queue and transfer you to an agent when they pick up. Saved me hours of frustration.

Listen up because this is important. Once your regular UI benefits run out, here's what you need to do: 1. Keep certifying every week even after benefits end 2. Document ALL job searches 3. Check if you qualify for SNAP benefits 4. Visit your local career center for free resume help 5. Consider taking a part-time job while searching Also if you need to speak with someone at unemployment, use claimyr.com - they'll wait on hold and connect you to an agent. Saved me hours of frustration. Don't give up, keep pushing forward. The job market is tough but something will come through eventually.

Listen up everyone dealing with this issue - here's what you need to know: First, try these steps: - Clear browser cache/cookies - Use Microsoft Edge - Try early morning or late night - Write down your answers before starting so you can quickly re-enter if it crashes If still having issues, you have 2 options: 1. Keep trying the website (can take days) 2. Call them directly (good luck getting through) Best solution I found was using claimyr.com - yes it costs $20 but they handle the calling/holding and get you to a real person who can file the claim over the phone. Way better than fighting with the broken website. Dont give up - you need these benefits and its worth the hassle to get it done right!
