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!

Final tip: Keep detailed records of everything - when you filed, what documents you submitted, all your job search activities, any correspondence with Washington ESD. Good record keeping will save you headaches if any issues come up later.
That's great advice. I'll start a folder for all my unemployment stuff right now.
Smart! Organization is key to a smooth unemployment claim experience.
Welcome to the club nobody wants to join! But seriously, unemployment benefits exist for exactly situations like yours. It's part of the social safety net and you shouldn't feel bad about using it when you need it.
Thank you! I was feeling a bit guilty about it but you're right - that's what it's there for.

Hang in there. I know the waiting is awful but most cases do get resolved eventually. The system is slow but it usually works in the end.
Thanks for the encouragement. Really helps to have this community during such a stressful time.
Six weeks is frustrating but I've seen cases take 10+ weeks for complex separation issues. If you can get through to Washington ESD directly, they might be able to give you a better timeline for your specific case.
10+ weeks would be devastating financially. Really hoping mine doesn't take that long.
That's why services like Claimyr can be worth it - getting actual information instead of just waiting in the dark.

I used Claimyr last month when I had questions about my claim and it was definitely worth it. Saved me hours of trying to call Washington ESD directly. The agents were able to explain exactly what my options were for my specific situation.
I think I'm going to give that a try. I really need to talk to someone who can look at my specific case rather than just guessing.

Thanks everyone for the perspectives and advice. Going to try that Claimyr service to get my Washington ESD claim sorted out. Sounds like automation displacement is becoming more common so hopefully the system adapts.

My cousin went through this same thing last year when his factory got automated. Took months to get his Washington ESD benefits straightened out.

•He didn't know about services like Claimyr back then. Might have been faster if he had.
