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!

Quick question - does anyone know if pending fact finding affects your ability to apply for other jobs? I have an interview next week and don't want this to complicate things.
No, it shouldn't affect job applications at all. Fact finding is just an internal ESD investigation process.
Good to know! I was worried about the same thing.
Final thought - keep all your documentation organized while you wait. If they do send you a questionnaire, you'll want to respond quickly with complete information. Don't make them ask twice for the same documents.
You're welcome! Hope your fact finding gets resolved quickly. Remember to keep filing your weekly claims in the meantime.
And don't hesitate to reach out for help getting through to ESD if you need answers fast. Good luck!

Update us on how it goes! I'm sure other people will find this thread helpful since multiple unemployment claims are pretty common these days.
Will do! I'm going to apply online tomorrow morning and see what happens. Thanks everyone for all the helpful advice and reassurance.
Good luck! I'm sure it will work out fine. The hardest part is usually just getting through the application process.
One last thing - make sure your direct deposit information is still current in your account before you file. I forgot to update mine after switching banks and it delayed my first payment by two weeks.
Oh good catch! I did switch banks recently so I'll definitely need to update that. Thanks for the reminder!
No problem! It's one of those easy things to forget that can cause unnecessary delays.

Just wanted to follow up on the Claimyr suggestion - they're really helpful for understanding Washington ESD policies before you make major decisions like quitting. Much better than trying to guess what the agency will do.
Already bookmarked their site. Planning to use them this week to get some concrete answers about my situation.
Been following this thread and just wanted to say good luck with whatever you decide. Having been through a similar situation myself, I know how hard it is to make these decisions when you're already stressed and overwhelmed.
Thank you. It really helps to know others have faced similar situations and gotten through them.

Washington's unemployment system has definitely improved over the years but it's still not perfect. Just be patient with the process and don't hesitate to reach out for help if you need it.

Update us on how it goes! And remember, if you need to talk to someone at Washington ESD and can't get through on your own, that Claimyr service has been a lifesaver for a lot of people in this community.
