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 question - did you receive any kind of confirmation when you filed? Might be worth double checking that everything went through correctly on their end.

Yeah, I got an email confirmation. But maybe I should log in and make sure everything looks right. Thanks for the suggestion!

Have you tried reaching out to your HR department? Sometimes they can help escalate issues with PFL.

Not to be that guy, but have you tried going to an actual office? Sometimes face-to-face is the only way to get things done with these bureaucrats.

Ive herd that sometimes the system flags claims for random audits which can cause delays. might be worth asking if thats whats happening with yours

Random audits? Great, another thing to worry about 🙃 Anyone know how common these are?

Facebook messaging worked for me! Got a response within a day. Worth a shot if you're still stuck.

Yo, anyone else notice that their website is down like half the time? How are we supposed to manage our accounts if we can't even log in? 🤦‍♂️

Don't forget to ask about partial leave options! You might be able to work part-time and still get some benefits. Could help stretch out your time with the baby.
