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!

Hey just a heads up, I was in the same situation a month ago and it turned out to be a quarter change issue. If your claim spans from one quarter into a new one, sometimes the system automatically reviews your eligibility. Keep certifying and try to get a rep on the phone asap.
Rosie Harper
•This! Quarter changes mess everything up in the system. If your payments stopped around the beginning of October, this is probably what happened.
Interesting - it was actually early October when the payments stopped, so this might be it!
try calling right when they open at 8am. thats how i finally got through after weeks of trying. still had to wait on hold for 90 mins but at least i got through.
Demi Hall
•I tried this and still couldn't get through. Their phone system is deliberately designed to make you give up.
I used claimyr.com after trying this method for 2 weeks straight with no luck. Got through first try and had my issue fixed in minutes. Payments came 2 days later.

My neighbor works for ny unemployment (data entry tho not claims) and says they have a MASSIVE backlog right now and are working 6 days a week trying to catch up. At least they're trying I guess...
Lucas Turner
this post gives me hope but also makes me mad... why are some people waiting 2 months and others 6+ months? makes no sense
Kai Rivera
•It's completley random from what I can tell. My GF filed a week after me and got approved in 10 days. I'm still waiting at 5 weeks.
Anna Stewart
•Its not random - they prioritize certain cases. If ur claim is complex or has any flags, ur screwed
Rudy Cenizo
My letter said I was getting $410 but when I logged into my account online it showed $425. When I finally got through to someone they fixed it and said there was a calculation error. You might want to double-check your online account too.
