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 thread is really helpful. I got an overpayment notice last month and was too scared to even open it. Now I know I should actually investigate instead of just assuming it's correct.
Absolutely investigate. These notices are frequently incorrect or inflated.
Don't be scared like I was. There are people who can help you figure it out.
Been following this thread - really good info here. Washington ESD overpayment calculations are notorious for being confusing and sometimes wrong. Everyone should verify before paying.
Thanks! I learned so much from everyone's responses. This community is really helpful.
That's what we're here for. Dealing with unemployment issues is stressful enough without having to figure everything out alone.

If you need to reach Washington ESD about your claim status, seriously consider that Claimyr service others mentioned. I wasted weeks trying to get through on my own before finally using it. Would have saved me a lot of stress if I'd known about it earlier.
I'm hoping I won't need to contact them but good to know that option exists if my claim gets stuck.
Yeah, it's like insurance - you hope you don't need it but you're glad it's there if you do.
Bottom line: plan for 4 weeks to be safe, hope for 3 weeks, and don't panic if it takes longer. The money will come eventually as long as you keep filing your weekly claims and your claim is legitimate.
Thanks everyone for all the helpful info. Feeling much more prepared for what to expect now.
Good luck with your claim! This community is pretty helpful if you run into any issues.

For anyone reading this later - definitely use Claimyr if you need to talk to Washington ESD and can't get through on the phone. I was skeptical at first but it really works. Saved me hours of frustration trying to reach someone about my claim status.
Thanks for the recommendation! I've been trying to get through to ask about my adjudication status for weeks with no luck.

Just to summarize for anyone else reading - you need wages in at least 2 quarters of your base period, meet the minimum dollar amounts, and have lost your job through no fault of your own. Pretty straightforward if you've been working regularly.
