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!

Will do! Thanks again everyone, this has been incredibly helpful. Going to file right now.

Also remember that if your claim gets complicated or you need to talk to someone at Washington ESD about specific issues, services like Claimyr can save you hours of frustration trying to get through on the phone. I wish I had known about it sooner!
I'll keep that in mind if I run into any problems. Hopefully everything goes smoothly!

The important thing is understanding that quitting doesn't automatically disqualify you, but the burden of proof is on you to show you had good cause. Harassment definitely counts but you need evidence.
This has been really helpful everyone. I think I'm going to start documenting everything and see if I can address it with the district manager first.

I had issues with my claim last year and spent weeks trying to get through to Washington ESD by phone. Finally tried Claimyr and got connected to an agent the same day. Definitely worth considering if you run into problems.
Several people have mentioned Claimyr now. I'll keep that in mind as a backup plan if I can't reach anyone directly.
Yeah it's becoming pretty popular among people who've dealt with Washington ESD phone issues. The peace of mind was worth it for me.
Good luck with your claim! The initial anxiety is normal but most people get through the process fine. Just stay on top of your weekly claims and job search requirements.
Thank you everyone for all the helpful advice! I feel much more confident about starting the process now.
You're welcome! Don't hesitate to come back here if you run into any issues during the process.

Hope your claim goes through smoothly! Mine took forever but eventually got approved. Just be patient and keep filing those weekly claims.
