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!

Pro tip: If you can, go to their office in person. Sometimes face-to-face interaction can solve problems that seem impossible over the phone or fax.

Have you tried reaching out to your local state representative? Sometimes they can help cut through the red tape.

Quick question - how long ago did you submit your initial claim? There's been a huge backlog since covid, so timeframes are all over the place

0 coins

It's been about 3 weeks now. Is that normal?

0 coins

Unfortunately, yeah. I've heard of some taking 6-8 weeks lately. Hang in there!

Has anyone tried faxing the cert instead of mailing it? I heard it might be faster but idk if thats true

0 coins

I tried faxing once. Big mistake. They lost it and I had to start all over. Stick to mail or online if possible.

0 coins

Faxing worked for me! But make sure you keep the confirmation page.

Just a heads up, there's been some changes to the process recently. Make sure you're using the most up-to-date forms from their website. Learned that the hard way 😅

Bruh, EDD is straight up playing games with us. I swear they got a dartboard with department names and just transfer you to wherever it lands 🎯🤣

I filed about 3 weeks ago. Didn't realize there was a new system, that explains a lot!
