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!

Same thing happened to my brother - he couldn't keep up with the quotas at his call center job and got let go. He filed for unemployment and it took about 3 weeks to get approved. The employer didn't even contest it because they knew it was just a performance thing, not misconduct.
I'm in a similar situation right now - got let go from my warehouse job last month for not meeting productivity targets. I was really nervous about applying but decided to file anyway. The process was actually pretty straightforward online, and I got approved within about 2 weeks. The key thing I learned is to be completely honest about what happened and emphasize that you were trying your best to do the job. Don't let the fear of being denied stop you from filing - you have nothing to lose by applying and everything to gain if you're approved. Good luck!

In 2023 and we're still dealing with these ancient verification systems smdh. last year i got locked out cuz i couldn't remember which previous employer they wanted me to verify (i had 3 jobs in 2022). took 4 calls to fix.
This is so infuriating! I'm dealing with the exact same thing right now - got locked out after the system rejected my mother's maiden name THREE times even though I know it's correct. Been without benefits for 2 months now and I'm at my breaking point. The worst part is you can't even talk to a human to explain that their system is wrong! I've tried calling at 7:30am like people suggest but still can't get through. Might have to try that Claimyr service people are mentioning or go to a physical office. This whole system is designed to make us give up. Hang in there - we shouldn't have to jump through hoops like this just to get the benefits we're entitled to!

UPDATE: My payment just hit my account! It was one day later than usual, just like most of you said. Thanks everyone for calming my nerves about this!
Great to hear! Glad it worked out for you.

ugh employers always try this guilt trip BS. mine did the same thing when our whole department got eliminated. like sorry not sorry, you laid us off, we're filing for UI benefits. that's literally what unemployment insurance is FOR
I work in HR and can confirm what others have said - yes, employers do pay unemployment taxes and their rates can go up based on claims, but that's literally the whole point of the system. Your boss paying into unemployment insurance is like paying car insurance - you hope you never need it, but when you do, that's what it's there for. The rate increases are also capped and calculated over multiple years, so one claim isn't going to bankrupt them. Don't let your employer guilt you out of benefits you've legitimately earned. If they're laying you off, file your claim right away.

Just went through this same thing last month! The 7pm Sunday cutoff is real and it's brutal. What helped me was calling the automated line at 1-888-581-5812 the next day to double check my claim status. Sometimes the payment shows up late in the system even if you certified on time. Don't panic yet - give it until Wednesday before freaking out completely.
