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!

If anyone else is dealing with Washington ESD appeal issues, that Claimyr thing really does work. Used it myself when I couldn't get through to ask about my hearing date. Much better than sitting on hold for hours.
Seems like a lot of people have had success with that service. I'll definitely consider it.

this thread helped me understand way more than the washington esd website did lol
Government websites are notoriously confusing. That's why forums like this are so helpful for getting real answers from people who've been through it.
Thanks everyone for all the helpful info! I feel way more prepared now to deal with whatever my benefit amount ends up being. This community is amazing.
Good luck with your claim! Hope it goes smoothly for you.
Feel free to come back if you have more questions once your claim gets processed. We're all here to help each other navigate this system.

The waiting is the worst part honestly. I remember being so anxious about my first payment too. But once it starts coming it's pretty reliable.
Thanks for the encouragement. It's just stressful when you have bills due and no other income coming in.
totally get it, i was in the same situation. hang in there!
UPDATE: Just wanted to let everyone know my payment hit my account this morning! So it was exactly 3 business days after the 'Payment Issued' date showed up in my Washington ESD account. Thanks everyone for the help and reassurance.
Lucky you! Still waiting on mine but this gives me hope it'll come soon.
Awesome! Always nice to hear success stories on here.

For what it's worth, I've used Claimyr twice now when I needed to actually talk to someone at Washington ESD about benefit questions. Much better than the regular phone system. The callback feature is genius - no more sitting on hold for hours just to get disconnected.
I'm definitely going to bookmark that service in case I need to contact Washington ESD about anything else.
Smart idea. It's one of those things you don't think you need until you really need it.

Been following this thread and wanted to add - if your benefit calculation is correct but still too low to live on, look into your county's emergency assistance programs. Many have one-time help for rent, utilities, etc. while you're getting back on your feet.

•That's a good idea. I'll look up what my county offers. Thanks for all the advice everyone!

•Also check with local churches and community organizations. Even if you're not religious, many have assistance programs open to anyone in need.

UPDATE idea: once you get this sorted out, come back and let us know what the issue was. These threads help other people who run into the same problems.
