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!

Bottom line - file as soon as you're eligible and don't overthink the benefit calculation too much. Washington ESD will figure it out based on your wage history and let you know what you qualify for.
Thanks everyone for all the info. Sounds like I should just go ahead and file and see what happens.
Exactly. You can always ask questions later if something doesn't look right, but don't delay filing while you try to figure out every detail.

Just wanted to follow up on the Claimyr thing I mentioned earlier. I ended up using them again this week to check on my claim status and it worked great. If you're having trouble getting through to ESD, it's definitely worth checking out their demo video to see how it works.
I might give that a try if I run into issues. Thanks for the recommendation.
I've been trying to call ESD for days with no luck. Might have to try this Claimyr service too.
Update: I applied for unemployment after being fired for performance issues and just got approved! The adjudication took about 4 weeks but it was worth the wait. Don't let anyone tell you that being fired automatically disqualifies you.
That's great news! Gives me a lot of hope for my own situation. Thanks for coming back to update us.
Of course! I know how helpful it is to hear success stories when you're going through the process yourself.

This has been so helpful everyone. I feel much more informed about unemployment funding and know what questions to ask when I do manage to reach Washington ESD. Thanks for taking the time to explain everything!
Glad we could help! Understanding the funding structure really does help make sense of why different programs work differently.
Good luck with your claim! Hope you find the supplemental programs you're looking for.

The whole process seems overwhelming at first but it's really not that bad once you get started. Just take it one step at a time and don't hesitate to ask for help if you get stuck.
Thank you everyone for all the helpful advice! I feel much more confident about applying now.
You've got this! Just remember to file today and keep us posted if you run into any issues.

One last piece of advice - save copies of everything. Every form you submit, every confirmation number, every letter they send you. If there are any issues later, having good records will save you a lot of headaches.
