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!

The benefit amount calculation can be confusing but remember it's based on your past earnings, so if you were making decent money at the warehouse you should get a reasonable amount. Just file and see what they determine.
Thanks everyone for all the help. I'm going to file today and see what happens.
Good luck! The process seems overwhelming at first but once you get started it's not too bad.
If your claim gets stuck in adjudication or you have trouble reaching Washington ESD about your benefit amount, definitely consider using Claimyr. I was skeptical at first but it really works for getting through to an actual person who can help.
I'll keep that in mind if I run into problems. Hopefully the filing process goes smoothly.
It usually does for straightforward cases like yours. Good luck with the job search too!

Glad to see you're filing right away. That's the smartest move. Even if there are complications later, at least your claim is in the system and the clock is running.
Exactly my thinking. Better to get the process started than sit around worrying about it.

The whole unemployment system in this state is such a mess. Half the time the website doesn't work and when you finally get through on the phone they put you on hold for hours just to hang up on you.
I know it's frustrating but try to stay persistent. Most people do eventually get their claims processed, it just takes way longer than it should.
That's why services like Claimyr exist - because the regular system is so broken that people are willing to pay just to get through to talk to someone.
Good luck with your claim! Being fired doesn't automatically disqualify you from unemployment. Just be honest, file quickly, and keep all your documentation organized in case you need it later.
Thank you everyone for all the helpful advice! I feel much more confident about filing my claim now.
You're welcome! Hope everything works out for you. The unemployment process is stressful but most people who were legitimately fired for non-misconduct reasons do get approved eventually.

Just want to echo what others have said - the workers comp settlement itself shouldn't disqualify you, but proper reporting and documentation will be key to avoiding any issues down the road.
Got it. I'm going to make sure I have all my paperwork organized before I file.
That's smart. Having everything documented upfront makes the whole process smoother.

Pro tip: set up direct deposit when you file your claim. Getting the debit card they send can take weeks and then you have to deal with fees for accessing your money.

•Yes! The debit card has ATM fees and other charges. Direct deposit is the way to go.

Good luck with your claim! Unemployment benefits aren't fun to need but they're definitely helpful when you're between jobs. Hope you find something soon.

•Thank you! I'm optimistic about finding something in the next few weeks but it's reassuring to know the benefits will help in the meantime.
