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!

Have you tried contacting them through social media? Sometimes their Twitter support is more responsive than other channels.

Pro tip: document EVERYTHING. Every call, every letter, every online status update. You never know when you might need to prove you've been trying to resolve issues. CYA always!

Guys, I'm freaking out. I'm about to miss my rent payment because of this delay. Any ideas for emergency assistance while we wait?

Check with local charities or churches. Some offer temporary rent assistance. Also, talk to your landlord ASAP. They might be willing to work with you if you explain the situation.

Thanks for the advice. I'll give that a shot. This whole situation is so stressful 😰

Plot twist: what if we all show up at their office with sleeping bags and camp out until they process our claims? Who's in? β›ΊοΈπŸ˜‚

Knowing them, they'd probably just form a committee to study the campout for 6 months before taking any action πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

Quick question - did you make sure to fill out Form XYZ-123? I forgot that one and it delayed my whole application by weeks.

It should be on the PFL website under 'Additional Forms'. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll try to dig up the direct link.
