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!

I've literally had NOTHING but problems with ESD processing claims. Filed on Sunday at 8am like clockwork for MONTHS and still had random delays. Sometimes Monday, sometimes Tuesday, sometimes Wednesday! No explanation ever given. Their system is GARBAGE and completely unpredictable. Don't count on that money until it's in your account!!!

same here! one time my payment was randomly held for "adjudication" and took 3 weeks with no explanation! ESD is a total mess

Just checking back - did your payment come through today? Most people should see their deposits by noon if everything processed correctly.

0 coins

YES! It came through around 9:30am! Made it to my first day with a full tank of gas. Thanks everyone for the reassurance and advice. This community is awesome!

Update for anyone who might have this problem in the future: The payment was reprocessed after 6 business days. The incorrect bank rejected it after 4 days, then ESD took 2 more days to send it to my correct account. I did end up calling ESD (waited on hold for about 2 hours) just to make sure everything was on track. The representative confirmed they could see the rejected payment in their system and assured me it would automatically be reprocessed with my updated banking information. So if you're in this situation - be patient but persistent!

THE ESD SYSTEM IS BROKEN!!!!! This is like the 5th time this year they've had "processing delays" and meanwhile WE'RE the ones who have to explain to our landlords why rent is late!!! Did you know they FINE landlords for late mortgage payments but we're just supposed to wait patiently while ESD gets their act together?? I'm so SICK of this system that punishes the unemployed while the fat cats at ESD collect their guaranteed paychecks ON TIME every week!!!!

While I understand your frustration, the delay is actually due to a system update that will make payments more secure and faster in the future. These technical updates are necessary but unfortunately can cause temporary disruptions. The agents at ESD are working overtime to resolve the issues as quickly as possible.

UPDATE: My payment just hit my account this morning! For anyone else waiting, looks like they're starting to process them now. It was about 2.5 days later than normal but at least it came through before rent was due. Thanks everyone for your help and commiseration!

Just checked and mine came through too! What a relief!

Glad to hear it worked out! This is pretty typical with these processing delays - they tend to resolve within 2-3 days.

how did u finally get thru to them?? been trying for days

0 coins

I ended up using that Claimyr service someone mentioned above. Normally I wouldn't try a third-party service, but I was desperate after not being able to get through for days. It worked - got a callback within about 40 minutes.

Quick update - I just got off the phone with ESD (yes, I was on hold forever). They confirmed it's a display issue affecting many accounts and they're working on a fix. They said if you received your payments in your bank account, everything is correct in their system. The representative mentioned they're hoping to have it fixed by next week.

Thank you so much for following up about this! Really appreciate you taking the time to call and let us all know. That's a huge relief.
