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!

lol welcome to the club. ive been trying to fix a similar issue for weeks now. its like trying to nail jello to a wall 🤣
Quick question - how long ago did you file these incorrect claims? There might be a time limit on how far back you can make corrections.
It was about a month ago. I hope that's not too long!
You should be fine. I think the limit is usually around 3 months, but don't quote me on that. Best to get it sorted ASAP tho!

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this nightmare! I had a similar experience with WA ESD PFML and it took forever to resolve. One thing that really helped me was filing a complaint with the Washington State Auditor's Office - they have a fraud reporting hotline but they also handle complaints about state agency inefficiencies. The number is 1-866-902-3900. When I called them about my delayed payments, they actually reached out to ESD on my behalf and things started moving within a week. Also, make sure you're logging into your SecureAccess Washington account regularly to check for any action items or document requests - sometimes they'll approve extensions but only if you respond to requests buried in there. The whole system is absolutely broken and you shouldn't have to be doing detective work just to get your rightful benefits, but unfortunately that's where we are. Hang in there and keep fighting! 💪

•This is incredibly helpful - thank you so much for sharing that hotline number! I had no idea the State Auditor's Office could intervene in cases like this. The fact that they got ESD to respond within a week is amazing. I'm definitely calling them today. I'll also check my SecureAccess Washington account more thoroughly - you're probably right that there might be something buried in there that I missed. It's so frustrating that we have to become detectives just to access our own benefits, but I really appreciate you sharing what worked for you. Knowing that others have successfully navigated this mess gives me hope! 🙏

I've been following this thread and wanted to add another resource that might help. Have you tried contacting the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries Workers' Rights hotline at 1-866-219-7321? They handle workplace rights issues and can sometimes provide guidance on PFML problems or connect you with the right people. Also, if you haven't already, try logging into your ESD account and look for a "Request Callback" option - sometimes that works better than calling directly. I know it's incredibly frustrating having to chase down your own benefits, especially when you're dealing with health issues. The system really needs an overhaul, but in the meantime, don't let them wear you down. You've got this! 💪
