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!

This whole system is rigged against us, I swear. They make it so hard to get benefits on purpose. 😤

Preach! 🙌 It's like they want us to give up.

C'mon guys, it's not a conspiracy. The system is just outdated and overloaded.

Try contacting your local assemblymember or state senator. They sometimes can help push things through faster. Worth a shot!

Quick question - did you appeal the workers comp denial? Sometimes that's faster than starting a new disability claim from scratch.

0 coins

I didn't even know that was an option! How do I go about appealing?

0 coins

You should've received info about appealing with your denial notice. If not, check the workers comp board website. There's usually a deadline, so act fast!

Hot take: the system is designed to be this difficult on purpose to discourage people from claiming benefits. Change my mind. 🤔

100% agree. It's all about saving money for the state, not helping people.
