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!

Lol, I don't even know where to find a fax machine these days. But I'm desperate enough to try anything at this point!

Just a heads up, I've heard they're super backed up due to a new system update. Might be why everythings taking so long. Doesn't make it any less frustrating tho 😑

Preach! 🙌 It's like they're purposely making it difficult. Stay strong, we're all in this sinking ship together 🚢

Hey OP, don't lose hope! I know it's frustrating, but keep at it. Make sure you document everything - dates you called, who you spoke to, what they said. It might come in handy if you need to escalate your case. Sending positive vibes your way! ✨

Anybody else notice how they always seem to 'lose' our documents? I've had to send the same forms like 3 times now 🙄

Hey OP, hang in there. I know it's tough but it will get sorted eventually. In the meantime, check out local food banks if you're struggling. No shame in getting help when you need it. ❤️

OP, make sure you and your wife didn't accidentally apply for the same type of leave. That can cause delays.

Anyone else notice how the wait times have gotten worse since covid? It's like they never staffed back up 🙄

For real tho. You'd think they'd have figured it out by now 🤦‍♂️
