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!

UPDATE: I finally got through to UC this morning! I used the Claimyr service that someone suggested above and got connected in about 25 minutes instead of spending hours redialing. The rep was able to file the partial week claim for me and said I should see those 3 days of payment in 2-3 business days. She also confirmed that I did everything else correctly with reopening my claim. Thanks everyone for your help!
awesome! glad u got it fixed!
Great news! Glad it worked out for you.

I went through something similar last year. The key for me was documenting the inconsistencies in what my employer said. If they told your husband they were restructuring but then claimed a policy violation to UC, that's a huge red flag the referee will notice. In my case, I had my denial overturned and received backpay for all the weeks I was eligible. Make sure your husband keeps filing his weekly claims even while waiting for the appeal hearing - that way if you win, he'll get paid for all those weeks.
Oh! I didn't realize he should keep filing weekly claims. He stopped after getting the denial letter. Should he start again right away? Will he miss out on the weeks he didn't file for?
Yes, he should absolutely resume filing weekly claims immediately! This is one of the most common mistakes people make. Even when denied, you should continue filing your weekly claims while appealing. If you win your appeal, you can only be paid for weeks you properly filed for. He may have already lost some weeks of potential benefits, but he should start filing again right away to prevent losing more. In some cases, you can request to file for past weeks by calling UC and explaining that you didn't understand you needed to keep filing, but it's not guaranteed they'll allow it.
Thank you so much! He's going to start filing again today. This forum has been incredibly helpful - I feel so much more prepared for the hearing now. I'll update after it happens to let everyone know how it went!

my cousin waited 5 months for her appeal and still got denied anyway. the whole thing is just a way for them to avoid paying us what we deserve. good luck but dont get your hopes up

•That's not entirely accurate. While the system is frustratingly slow, appeals statistics show that approximately 30-40% of initial denials are overturned on appeal. The outcome really depends on the specific circumstances of separation and how well you can document your case.
FINAL UPDATE: Had my hearing this morning and I WON MY APPEAL!!! The referee immediately ruled in my favor when my former employer couldn't explain why they gave different reasons for my termination. Now they're saying it will take 2-3 weeks for payments to start processing, but at least I'll be getting all the back payments from October! Thanks everyone for your help and support during this incredibly stressful time. For anyone else going through appeals - document EVERYTHING and don't give up!
Congrats!!! So happy for u! 🎉
Mia Alvarez
•Great news! Just be aware that the back payments might come in separate chunks rather than all at once. Also, your former employer still has 15 days to appeal this decision to the Board of Review, though it sounds like they don't have a strong case. Congratulations!

•Thankfully I set up direct deposit when I first applied. At least that's one thing I did right!

Just a reminder - after you file tomorrow, give the system 24-48 hours to process and show payment dates. Don't panic if they don't show up immediately after you certify. The system usually updates overnight Sunday into Monday, but sometimes it takes until Tuesday morning.

•Thank you for the reminder. I'll try to be patient (though it's really hard after waiting 8 weeks already!
