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!

Guys we need to talk about how broken this system is. Why are they suddenly doing "random" checks AFTER approving people and paying benefits for months?? The NY unemployment system is a complete disaster. I've been dealing with them for so long and every month there's some new hurdle. It's exhausting. 😫
Cole Roush
•It's by design. They make it difficult so people give up. They don't want to pay benefits.
James Maki
•Facts. The system is designed to frustrate people into giving up their rightful benefits.

Pro tip: call right when they open at 8am. I got through after only 20 minutes on hold that way. They told me my refund was scheduled for next week. Worth trying if you're desperate!

hmm I've been burned by so many of these 'services' before... what makes this Claimyr thing different? anyone with actual experience?
Ellie Kim
•I was super skeptical too but it actually worked for me. It's just an automated system that waits on hold and then calls you when a person answers. Saved me from losing my mind listening to that awful hold music for hours.
Fiona Sand
•I tried it yesterday and it worked exactly as advertised. Got connected to an agent who fixed my issue that's been pending for months. Talking to an agent got my $ unlocked so fast.

there's a backdoor number that sometimes works to get to a real person faster: [redacted for privacy] - press 1, then 3, then 2, then wait without pressing anything else
they changed this recently, it doesn't work anymore 😡
omg this EXACT thing happened to me!! i was able to fix it by going to the office in person. bring all the paperwork you have and be prepared to wait ALL day but at least you'll get it fixed
Kylo Ren
•Which office did you go to? I thought they were all closed to the public still
the one in Brooklyn - some are open now but limited hours. call ahead to make sure

Tried calling the IRS 47 times this week. FORTY SEVEN. Either busy signal or it hangs up after saying high call volume. This country is broken.
Rachel Clark

Chris King
