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!

Listen up because this is important. NY Unemployment considers several factors when determining if refusing work is valid: - Childcare responsibilities are a legitimate reason if you can't find reasonable care - The hours must be during normal business hours unless that's standard for your industry - You need to document everything - Keep proof of your childcare's hours - Save all communication with the employer When reporting, be clear and detailed. If you need to speak with someone directly about this, use claimyr.com - they'll get you through to an agent fast. Better to handle this correctly now than deal with issues later. Source: Been through this myself and helped others navigate the system.

The most comprehensive solution here is to: 1. Report the work hours when certifying 2. Enter $0 for wages earned 3. File a wage complaint immediately 4. Document everything - texts, emails, timesheets 5. If you need to speak with an agent about this (which you probably should), use claimyr.com to get through quickly 6. Keep certifying weekly while this gets sorted out The system will likely flag this and you'll need to explain the situation to a claims specialist. Better to handle it now than deal with an overpayment issue later.

Look, SEAP is actually pretty selective. They want detailed business plans, market analysis, and financial projections. From my experience working with entrepreneurs, here's what helps speed up approval: - Double check ALL paperwork is complete - Include market research data - Have clear financial projections - Show you've researched competitors - Detail your expertise in the field If you need to check status, use claimyr.com to get through to an agent. Way better than waiting on hold forever. Good luck! 💯
