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!

Oof, appeals are the worst. Make sure you respond within the deadline they give you, even if you don't have all the info yet. You can always submit more stuff later, but missing that initial deadline can sink your whole case.
Thanks for the tip! I'll make sure to get something in ASAP.
Not to be that guy, but have you considered looking for work that accommodates your disability? I know its not always possible, but sometimes theres options out there we dont know about. Just a thought!
Bruh, read the room. OP is trying to keep their benefits, not get a lecture 🙄
Whoa, chill. I'm just trying to offer another perspective. No need to get defensive.

Has anyone heard about the new bill they're considering that might affect extensions? I saw something on the news but couldn't find much info online.
I think I know what youre talking about. Its still in committee tho, so nothing concrete yet. Fingers crossed it helps us out! 🤞

pro tip: document EVERYTHING. every call, every letter, every email. you never know when youll need to prove you did something or they said something. saved my butt more than once!

lol good luck. been trying to sort out my claim for 3 months now. this whole system is a joke 🤡
StarStrider
•Preach 🙌 Sometimes I think they make it this difficult on purpose
3 months? Amateur hour. Try 6 months and counting ðŸ˜
Sofia Torres
Hey OP, just wondering - what specific issue are you dealing with regarding Paid Family Leave? Might be able to give more targeted advice if we know the details.
Thanks for asking! I'm trying to file a claim for bonding time with my newborn, but I'm not sure if I'm eligible since I work part-time. That's why I really need to talk to someone directly.
Sofia Torres
•Ah gotcha. Part-time can be tricky. Make sure you have your exact hours worked for the past 18 months when you call. They'll need that to determine eligibility. Congrats on the new baby btw!

lol welcome to the wonderful world of california bureaucracy 🤡 good luck getting a straight answer from anyone there

Hey OP, when you do get through to someone, make sure to get their name and employee ID. It helps if you need to follow up or if theres any discrepancy later. Also, dont be afraid to ask for a supervisor if youre not getting anywhere with the first person you talk to. Stay strong! 💪
That's great advice, thank you! I'll definitely do that.

I'm in the same boat, applied in February. This waiting game is killing me. How are we supposed to survive without income for months on end? The system is broken 😞
