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 sacrificing a goat to the EDD gods? I hear that helps speed up the process. πŸ˜‚

Quick question - did you receive any kind of confirmation when you filed? Might be worth double-checking that your claim actually went through

Here's a comprehensive guide based on my experience and research: 1. Document everything: Keep a detailed log of all communications, including dates, times, and names of representatives you speak with. 2. Check your online account daily: Updates often appear here before anywhere else. 3. Ensure all your information is up-to-date: This includes contact details and any changes in your situation. 4. Be proactive: If you haven't heard anything after 3 weeks, start making calls or use online contact forms. 5. Understand your rights: Familiarize yourself with the Paid Family Leave policies in your state. 6. Prepare for possible interviews: Have all relevant documents ready, including medical certifications if applicable. 7. Consider reaching out to your local representative or state senator if you're facing significant delays. 8. Join online forums or support groups: Other claimants can provide valuable insights and emotional support. 9. If all else fails, consider legal aid: Some non-profits offer free legal assistance for benefit issues. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up, and don't be afraid to advocate for yourself!

Anyone else feel like the whole system is designed to make us give up? It's like they're hoping we'll just get frustrated and stop trying to get what we're owed. 😀

Quick question - did you upload all the required documents? Sometimes they don't process if something's missing.

Have you checked if there's an issue with your identity verification? That held up my claim for weeks until I figured it out.

I didn't even think of that! How did you resolve it?

I had to upload additional documents through the UI Online portal. It was a pain, but once I did that, things started moving again.
