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!

This whole thread is so reassuring! I thought I was the only one confused about the timing. Nice to know it's just how the system works and I'm not doing anything wrong.
Same! I was seriously starting to worry there was some hidden issue with my claim.
Nope, just the usual Washington ESD quirks. We're all in the same boat!
Thanks for asking this question OP. I learned a lot from everyone's responses. The step-by-step breakdown was especially helpful for understanding what happens behind the scenes.
You're welcome! I'm glad other people found it useful too. This community is great for getting real answers.
Definitely saving this thread for future reference. Lots of good practical info here.

The hardest part is the uncertainty while waiting for approval. Try to stay busy with job searching and don't stress too much about things outside your control.
That's probably good advice for everything right now. Thanks everyone for all the help!
Used Claimyr myself when I couldn't get answers about my pending claim. Worth it when you really need to talk to someone at Washington ESD. The peace of mind is valuable when you're already dealing with job loss stress.
Good to know there are options when the normal channels don't work. Feeling much more prepared now.
Exactly. Sometimes you just need to talk to a real person who can look at your specific situation.

For what it's worth, I tried Claimyr when I couldn't get through to Washington ESD about my claim status. Worth every penny - saved me literally days of trying to call. The video demo on their site shows exactly how it works.
Seems like a lot of people have had good experiences with that service.
Yeah, it's pretty straightforward. They just get you connected faster than doing it yourself.

Keep us posted on what you find out! I'm sure other people are dealing with similar repeated disqualification issues.
Will do - hopefully I can figure out what's been going wrong and help others avoid the same problems.

The whole system is such a mess. I've been trying to get my benefit amount corrected for weeks and can't get through to anyone who can actually help.

Just a heads up - make sure you understand the job search requirements too. Getting your benefit amount calculated is just the first step.

•Exactly. And you have to register with WorkSource Washington too. Don't skip any of those steps or they'll hold up your benefits.
