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!

thanks everyone this is really helpful. i had no idea there were so many ways to get disqualified. makes me nervous about filing weekly claims now lol
Don't be nervous, just be honest and follow the rules. Most people don't have problems if they report everything accurately and meet the requirements.
Yeah this thread has been super educational. I feel way more confident about avoiding problems now.
The key thing to remember is that most disqualifications can be appealed if you disagree. Don't just accept it if you think Washington ESD made a mistake. You have the right to a hearing and can present evidence to support your case.
Usually 30 days from the date of the disqualification notice. Don't wait - appeals take time to process and you want to get it started as soon as possible.
And if you need help with the appeal process, that's another good reason to use Claimyr to talk to an actual person at Washington ESD instead of trying to figure it out on your own.

Hope it works out smoothly for you! The first payment is always the most stressful but after that it becomes routine. Washington ESD has actually gotten pretty good with their payment processing over the last couple years.
Thank you! I'm feeling much more confident about it now. This forum has been super helpful.
This community is great for unemployment questions. Always helpful people here!
Just remember if you do run into any problems down the line, Claimyr is there to help you get through to Washington ESD without the phone hassles. I wish I had known about it earlier in my unemployment journey!
I'll definitely bookmark that for future reference. Hopefully won't need it but good to know it exists.
Yeah it's one of those things you hope you never need but glad it's there when you do

Update us when you hear back! Always curious to see how these situations resolve.
Will do! Hoping for good news in the next few days.
Fingers crossed for you! The waiting is always the hardest part.
I had success using Claimyr too when I needed to check on my adjudication status. The rep was able to give me a better timeline than what I could find online.
Maybe I should try that service if I don't hear anything by early next week.
It definitely beats sitting on hold for hours. They know exactly how to navigate the ESD phone system.

One more thing - if you do have trouble reaching Washington ESD by phone, I can also vouch for that Claimyr service. Saved me hours of frustration when I needed to get my adjudication issue resolved. Worth checking out at claimyr.com if you get stuck.
Several people have mentioned that service now. Must be pretty helpful.
I might need to try that too. The wait times are ridiculous.

Try not to stress too much. I know it's easier said than done when money is tight, but most people do get approved eventually. Keep doing everything you're supposed to do and it will work out.

If you need to talk to someone at Washington ESD about your claim status, I'd definitely recommend trying Claimyr. I was able to get answers about my pending claim that I never could have gotten through the regular phone system. The peace of mind was worth it.

•I think I'm going to try that. Better than sitting here wondering what's happening with my claim.

•Yeah, they were able to tell me exactly what stage my claim was in and what to expect next. Much better than just guessing.
