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!

Fun fact: you can use emojis as answers to security questions. Makes em easier to remember and harder to guess. Like πŸ• for favorite food or 🐢 for first pet lmao

This is either genius or the worst idea ever. I can't decide which 🀣

Have you tried going to your local EBT office in person? Sometimes face-to-face is the best way to get these things sorted out.

I haven't tried that yet. Do you know if I need to make an appointment first?

It depends on your local office. Some take walk-ins, others need appointments. Maybe give them a call to check before you go.

OP, make sure you change your PIN asap! And don't use obvious numbers like birthdays or 1234. Stay strong, you'll get through this! πŸ’ͺ

This is why I always transfer my benefits to my bank account as soon as they hit. Easier to dispute fraud with a bank than deal with EBT customer service imho.

Wait, you can do that? How? I didn't know this was an option!

Yep! You can set up direct deposit for cash benefits. Food benefits still have to stay on the EBT card tho. Check your state's DSS website for instructions.

Has anyone else noticed that the EBT system always seems to have issues at the end of the month? It's like they're trying to make it harder for us on purpose. πŸ€”

Omg yes! I thought I was the only one who noticed this. It's so frustrating!
