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!

UPDATE: That Claimyr service actually worked! Got through to someone at ESD and found out my claim was just in normal processing, should be approved within the next few days. Finally some peace of mind.

don't get your hopes up too high about the amount. they always find ways to give you less than you expect and then make you jump through hoops to keep getting it

While the system has issues, the benefit calculation is pretty straightforward math once you understand it.

maybe for you but they screwed up my calculation and it took months to fix

Good luck with everything! The first time filing can be stressful but once you get your first payment it's a huge relief. Just stay on top of your weekly claims and job search requirements.

Thanks everyone for all the help. This gives me a much better idea of what to expect when I file tomorrow.

Bottom line - file now, don't wait. The sooner you file, the sooner you can start the process. Even with the waiting week, you'll be glad you got it started.

Alright, I'm convinced. Going to file my claim right after I finish reading through all these responses.

Smart move. And don't stress too much - thousands of people go through this process every week and it works out.

I used Claimyr when I needed to clarify some confusion about my remaining weeks. They got me connected fast and the agent was able to explain exactly where I stood with my benefits. Definitely recommend it if you need to talk to someone at Washington ESD without the phone hassle.

Bottom line - plan like you have 26 weeks and use that time wisely. Don't wait until week 25 to start thinking about what's next. Good luck with your job search!

Will do, thanks for all the advice everyone!

My seasonal job at a summer camp ended in August and I got unemployment no problem. The key is being honest about everything and having your employment documentation ready. Don't overthink it.

0 coins

That's reassuring. I think I'm ready to file my claim. Thanks everyone for all the helpful advice!

Good luck with your claim! Hope it goes smoothly for you.

Remember that if you have any issues with your claim getting stuck or need to talk to someone at Washington ESD, don't waste hours calling. That Claimyr thing actually works - saved me so much time and frustration when my seasonal unemployment got complicated.

I'll keep that in mind if I run into any problems. Hopefully everything goes smoothly but it's good to know there are options if I need help.
