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!

Anyone else feel like they need a law degree just to understand all the parental leave rules? 🤔 I swear I've read the same paragraph 10 times and still don't get it

Lol for real. I think they make it confusing on purpose 🤡

Check out r/legaladvice, they sometimes have good explanations for this stuff

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes updates are posted there before they actually send out payments. Might give you an idea of where your claim stands.

This happened to me too! Turns out they had my address wrong in the system, so all my mail was going to the wrong place. Double-check all your info with them!

Oh wow, I hadn't even thought of that. I'll definitely check on this, thanks!

Plot twist: EDD is actually a time travel agency and they know you worked in an alternate timeline 👽🕰️

Lol if only! At least that would be a cooler explanation than 'our system is just really bad' 😂

Anyone else notice how these issues always seem to pop up right when you're finally getting back on your feet? It's like they wait for the worst possible moment to hit you with this stuff. Stay strong, OP. You got this!

Has anyone tried reaching out to their local representative? I've heard some people have had luck getting things moving that way.

0 coins

wait, we can do that? how do you even find out who your local rep is?

0 coins

Just Google '[your state] find my representative'. Most states have a website where you can enter your address and it'll show you who represents your district. Worth a try!

Hang in there, friend. We're all in the same sinking boat. Have you tried any of the advice from the other comments? Might be worth giving them another call.

0 coins

Plot twist: what if the website is working fine and we're all just collectively hallucinating these errors? 👽🤣

0 coins

Lol, at this point I'd believe anything 😂

Don't give them ideas! Next thing you know, they'll say it's a 'feature' not a bug 🙄
