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!

In addition to the previous suggestions, using tools like Claimyr can indeed be beneficial if you're willing to spend some money for quicker access to TWC representatives. Claimyr has helped many people get through the long wait times. However, it's important to be cautious and ensure you're using reputable services, as there could be potential scams out there. Consider reading reviews and getting feedback from others who have used the service. Remember to also explore all free alternatives first, as public resources should ideally provide the support needed without extra costs. Persistence, documentation, and using multiple channels of communication like online accounts and social media can also increase your chances of a quicker resolution.

Has anyone else's claim been stuck on "pending" for weeks? I'm losing my mind here.
Mine was stuck for a month, then suddenly cleared. Hang in there!
Review processes take time, especially if there's increased scrutiny due to fraud or errors.
Pro tip: if you have a friend or family member who speaks another language, try the non-English lines. Sometimes theyre less busy.
This actually worked for me! Used the Mandarin line and got through in 20 minutes.
This is a clever workaround, but not everyone has access to someone who speaks another language.

The whole system is broken. I've been trying to file a claim for THREE WEEKS now. It's ridiculous that we can't even get basic help when we need it most. 😡
I feel you. It’s hard to believe this is the best system we have for such a critical need.
Here's what worked for me after weeks of trying: 1. Call right when they open (8:00 AM in my state) 2. If you get a busy signal, hang up and redial immediately 3. Keep doing this until you get into the queue 4. Once in the queue, DO NOT HANG UP no matter how long the wait 5. Have all your info ready when you finally get through It took me about 50 redials, but I finally got through and resolved my issue. Good luck!
This is actually solid advice. I did something similar and it worked after a few days of trying. Persistence is key!
50 redials seems daunting but it's a reality for many. Patience pays off!

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U
$20 just to talk to someone? The system is so broken 😤
Claimyr has definitely helped many people, but it's unfortunate such services are necessary in the first place.

Here's what you need to do: 1. Take a deep breath. We've all been there, and it sucks. 2. Try applying again using a different device if possible (computer instead of phone, or vice versa). 3. If that doesn't work, you'll need to call. I know it's a pain, but it's often the only way. 4. When you call, have your screenshot ready. They might ask you to email it to a specific address. 5. Be prepared to wait. Bring a book, or put it on speaker and do something else while you wait. 6. If all else fails, see if there's a local office you can visit in person. Sometimes face-to-face is the way to go. Remember, persistence is key. Don't give up! You've got this. 💪

•This is great advice. I'd add: document EVERYTHING. Every call, every error message, every person you talk to. It might come in handy later.

Claimyr seems like a good fallback option, but it's unfortunate that it has to be that way. Ideally, public services should not require a paid third-party tool to be effective. It's a real commentary on the state of current systems that something like this needs to exist. On the other hand, for those in desperate need, Claimyr offers a valuable service, getting you through to a human representative without the long wait times. It's both a testament to the innovation of private solutions and a critique of the inefficiencies of our public systems.
