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!

my cousin got a weekend job while waiting for UC and it was fine they just reduced his payment on weeks he worked but he still got most of his benefits

Your cousin got LUCKY. I had a completely different experience! The system is totally inconsistent!!!

Thank you all so much for the advice! I think I'm going to accept the tutoring position and just be extremely careful about reporting everything correctly in my weekly certifications. The extra $95/week will help while I wait for my claim to process, and it sounds like it shouldn't affect my eligibility as long as I'm transparent. I'll continue my full-time job search and keep documenting everything meticulously. Really appreciate everyone taking the time to share your experiences!

Good luck! And dont worry too much - most issues happen when people try to hide income. Just be honest and you'll be fine.

just curious but did u have to do the id.me verification thing? that was such a pain for me

0 coins

Yes! The ID.me verification was actually pretty quick for me, but then I ran into the issue with my name not matching. The whole process would have been faster if they'd just asked for all documents upfront instead of requesting one thing at a time.

UPDATE: Just wanted to follow up since I saw your post. Has your payment come through yet? I know waiting for that first deposit can be stressful when bills are due.

0 coins

YES! It finally came through this morning - took exactly 4 business days from approval. And you were right about the back pay - I got payments for all three weeks at once. What a relief! Thanks everyone for your help!

0 coins

did u ever get the money for those first 4 weeks? seems weird they say approved but u didnt get paid

0 coins

No, I haven't gotten any money at all yet! That's part of what's so frustrating. It says approved but nothing has hit my account.

Update us once you're able to speak with someone! This information could help others who run into similar situations with temporary medical conditions while on unemployment.

I will definitely post an update once I get this resolved. Hopefully it helps someone else avoid this headache!

this happened to my cousin and she got her new hearing date in like 10 days so maybe it wont be that bad good luck!

To update everyone on this thread - I just checked with a colleague who works with the appeals office, and there's currently a situation at the Reading office where they had a referee go on extended medical leave, causing them to redistribute cases to other offices. This is likely why your case is being moved to Wilkes-Barre. The good news is that they are prioritizing these transferred cases, so you might get a new date faster than normal. The bad news is that Wilkes-Barre is also handling their regular caseload plus these transfers, so there could still be some delay. Definitely follow the advice to call and emphasize your financial hardship situation. Also, ask specifically if they can offer you a phone hearing as those can sometimes be scheduled more quickly.

Wow, thank you so much for this insider information! That makes a lot more sense now. I'll definitely request a phone hearing if it means getting it resolved faster.

my sister in law told me they sometimes hold payments if u've been claiming for a while to make sure ur still eligible... how long have u been on unemployment?

0 coins

I've only been claiming for about 5 weeks so I don't think that's my issue. It sounds like the filing day is what messed me up. Thanks though!

Just wanted to update everyone that my payment from Monday's filing just hit my Money Network card this morning around 6:30am. So it was exactly one day later than my usual timeline. Thanks for all the helpful info!
