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!

Last thing - make sure you're completing your work search requirements if they apply to your claim type. Sometimes payments get held up if you're missing job search documentation.
I've been logging my job searches in WorkSourceWA like they told me to. Hopefully that's enough.
That should be fine. Just keep doing what you're doing with the job search log.

This has been one of the most helpful threads I've seen on here. Thanks to everyone who shared their knowledge and experience!
Agreed! Way better than trying to decode the Washington ESD website on my own.
Definitely! This community is awesome for helping each other navigate the unemployment system.
Just to summarize for anyone finding this thread later: Log into SecureAccess Washington, check your Claim Summary for maximum benefit amount, check Payment History to see what you've received so far, and subtract to find your remaining balance. Also remember the 26-week time limit regardless of dollar amount remaining.
Perfect summary! This should be pinned somewhere for other people with the same question.

Bottom line - don't overthink it. File as soon as you can, be honest on all your forms, keep good records, and stay on top of your weekly claims. Washington ESD's system is designed to help people, not trip them up.
Thanks again everyone. This thread has been incredibly helpful!
Good luck with everything! Hope your claim goes smoothly.

This thread is giving me anxiety about my own account now! I better write down my login info somewhere safe in case this happens to me.
Yeah definitely be careful with multiple login attempts!
I use a password manager to avoid this exact problem. Worth the investment.
UPDATE: I finally got through using that Claimyr service and got my account unlocked! The whole process took about 45 minutes from start to finish. The ESD agent was actually really helpful and explained that my account got flagged because I'd been logging in from different devices. Thanks everyone for the advice!
Great news! Now you know for next time to stick to one device if possible.
Yes thank you all so much! I was able to file my weekly claim right after getting unlocked. Crisis averted!

That's encouraging! I'll definitely appeal if something seems wrong with my calculation. Thanks for all the helpful info everyone!

No problem! The key is keeping good records of all your employment and wages so you can prove your case if needed.
