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!

Quick tip: If you're having trouble getting your doctor to respond, try contacting the medical records department directly. Sometimes they can move things along faster than going through your doc.

This is actually genius. Wish I'd known this trick sooner!

Has anyone had experience with appealing a denial based on insufficient medical evidence? I'm in that boat now and could use some advice...

Thanks, I'll look into that. Any idea on typical costs for something like this?

0 coins

Most work on contingency, so they only get paid if you win. Usually around 25-30% of backpay. Good luck!

Have you considered reaching out to your local news station? Sometimes public pressure can get things moving.

Idk if this helps, but I had a similar issue and it turned out my doctor hadn't submitted some required paperwork. Might be worth checking with them.

0 coins

Oh, that's a good point. I'll give my doctor's office a call tomorrow. Thanks!

Pro tip: If you can't get through on the phone, try reaching out on Twitter. Sometimes their social media team is more responsive.

Anyone else notice the online system has been extra glitchy lately? I can't even log in half the time 🤦‍♂️

0 coins

Yup, it's been a nightmare. I've been trying to update my info for weeks

Pro tip: try using a different browser or clearing your cache. Worked for me!

Unpopular opinion: maybe if we all stopped calling constantly, it would be easier to get through 🤷‍♂️

Bruh, people are calling cuz they need money to live. Check ur privilege 🙄

I get that, I'm in the same boat. Just saying maybe there's a better way.

0 coins

Has anyone tried the UI Mobile app? wondering if its any better than the website for getting info/updates

It's basically the same tbh. Just a smaller screen to get frustrated at lol

I was in the same boat last year. Turns out there was a flag on my account for potential fraud (even though everything was legit). Had to verify my identity again. Might be worth asking if there's any specific issue holding up your payments.

This happened to me too! The fraud prevention stuff is out of control. Took weeks to sort out 😫

Oh man, I hope that's not the case for me. But I'll definitely ask about it next time I get through. Thanks for the heads up!
