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!

Make sure you keep track of all your employers and dates of employment. You'll need that information when you file your claim, and it helps to have it organized ahead of time.
Smart advice. I'll start keeping better records of my work history just in case.
And keep pay stubs if you can! They can be helpful documentation if there are any questions about your wages.
honestly the whole unemployment system is a nightmare to navigate but if you need it its there. sounds like you should qualify based on what others have said about the requirements
Thanks! Yeah, it does seem complicated but at least there's help available if needed.
It's definitely not user-friendly but it serves its purpose when people need financial support.

Update: I used the advice from this thread and finally got through! Called at 8:00am sharp, waited 3 hours, but got my issue resolved. Thank you everyone for the tips.
Three hours is actually pretty good. Glad you got through!
Thanks! The rep was really helpful once I got connected. The wait was worth it.

You sound like you're in a good position. Store closure, good work history, available for work - you should be approved without any issues. Just follow the rules and you'll be fine.
Thank you so much! This community has been incredibly helpful. I'm going to file my claim today.
Good luck! Keep us posted on how it goes.

Has anyone dealt with overpayment issues? I'm worried I might have made a mistake on one of my weekly claims and don't want to end up owing money back.

•If you made an honest mistake, contact Washington ESD as soon as possible to correct it. It's much better to be proactive than to wait for them to discover it during an audit.

•That's what I was thinking. Better to deal with it now than have it become a bigger problem later.
