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 conversation makes me grateful I never had to deal with unemployment. Sounds like a nightmare to navigate even when you legitimately need help.
It's really not that bad once you understand the system. The hard part is just getting accurate information upfront.
Fair enough. Seems like this thread covered most of the important stuff pretty well.
Last thought - keep copies of everything! Pay stubs, termination letters, any communication with employers. You never know what documentation they might ask for during the process.
Great advice! I'll start gathering all that stuff before I apply.
Smart move. Being prepared makes everything go much smoother.

Bottom line is you need to have worked and earned wages since your original claim to qualify for a new one. If you haven't, you'll need to find work first before you can get benefits again.
That makes sense. I did work some during my claim so hopefully that's enough.
The Washington ESD agent will be able to tell you definitively if your wages qualify when you call or apply.

thanks for all the suggestions everyone, going to try some of these approaches
Good luck! The Claimyr thing really did work for me if you get desperate enough to try it.
Update on my situation: finally got through after using Claimyr and my issue was resolved in 10 minutes. Wish I had known about this service weeks ago instead of wasting so much time calling.
That's great to hear! It really does save so much time and frustration.
Okay I'm convinced, going to try this too. Anything is better than spending entire days calling.

One more tip - if you think there's an error in your wage records or calculation, don't wait to address it. There are time limits on when you can request corrections, and it's much easier to fix early in your claim than later.
Good point. I think my calculation is correct now that I understand the formula, but I'll double-check my wage records to make sure everything is accurate.

One more thing - if you do quit and file, be 100% honest on your application about why you left. Lying about it will only make things worse if they find out during the investigation.

•Definitely planning to be honest. No point in making a bad situation worse by lying about it.
