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!

Call your local department of social services IMMEDIATELY. When I had my C-section last year and wasn't eligible for PFL, they helped me get emergency assistance, SNAP benefits, and pointed me to other resources. Don't wait - these applications can take time to process.
I'll call them tomorrow, thank you! Do you remember what documents they asked for? Just trying to be prepared.
Bring ID, proof of pregnancy (letter from doctor), recent pay stubs, bank statements, rent/mortgage info, and utility bills. Basically anything that shows your income and expenses. They'll help determine what you qualify for.
i'll probably get downvoted but have you considered asking family for help? i know its not ideal but sometimes we gotta swallow our pride. my mom moved in with me for 2 months after my c-section and it was a lifesaver both financially and for recovery.
Unfortunately my parents live out of state and can't leave their jobs. My partner will help but he can't take much time off either. It's just a tough situation all around.

hot take: the backpay system is intentionally broken to save the state money. they know most people will give up eventually.
While I agree it seems sus, never attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence lol
why not both? 🤣

After 3 moths of my account being locked in review status, I found claimyr.com through reddit. Got connected to an agent in like 30 minutes who cleared everything up. Wish I'd known about it sooner instead of stressing for months! my backpay hit my account 2 days later
does it actually work? i've been trying to get thru for weeks
yep! they just call for you and connect when they get a human. saved me literally hundreds of redial attempts

You NEED to talk to someone. Period. Nothing will happen until you get a live person who can look at the claim. Try calling every morning at 7:58am and hitting the right options the second they open. That worked for me after dozens of failed attempts.

is your husband checking his spam/junk email folders? sometimes the DOL sends important emails that get filtered out. also check physical mail - they sometimes send letters requiring response within a certain timeframe.

•Good point - I'll have him check both of these. Would hate for it to be something simple like that.
