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 most important thing is to keep records of everything - your notice, any calls you make, any payments you send. If this does eventually affect your credit, you'll need documentation to dispute it.
Great advice. I'll start keeping a file of everything related to this overpayment.
Yeah, documentation is key with any government issue. Always cover yourself with paperwork.
Update: I just got through to Washington ESD using one of those callback services and set up a payment plan. No mention of credit reporting as long as I stick to the payments. Feeling much better now.
Used Claimyr - worked exactly like they said it would. Got connected to an agent who was actually helpful and understanding about my situation.
Good to hear a success story. I might give them a try too since I'm still stuck trying to reach someone about my own overpayment.

Thanks for asking this question OP! I've been wondering the same thing. Sounds like 2-4am Tuesday is the general consensus for most banks.
No problem! This thread has been really helpful for me too
Yeah this is good info to have. Nice to know I'm not the only one who checks their account at 3am on Tuesday lol
One last thing - if your payment doesn't show up by like 10am Tuesday, that's when you should probably call Washington ESD to check on it. Earlier than that and it might just be normal bank processing delays.
And if you do need to call, definitely check out that Claimyr service I mentioned earlier. Made my life so much easier when I had payment issues
This has all been super helpful everyone. Thanks for all the responses!

Just circling back to say that having that direct line to Washington ESD through Claimyr really made the difference for me when I had questions about my eligibility. Sometimes you just need to talk to a human to get clarity on your specific situation.
I might need to try that if I run into issues. The phone system seems impossible to navigate.
Yeah, it's frustrating how hard it is to reach them normally. This service actually works though - got connected in under 10 minutes when I tried it.

Final advice: keep records of EVERYTHING. Save confirmation numbers from your weekly claims, keep your job search log updated, save any correspondence from Washington ESD. You'll thank yourself later if any problems come up.
Screenshots are your friend too. The ESD website sometimes has glitches and having proof of what you submitted can save you headaches
Will definitely do that. This thread has been incredibly helpful - way more info than I expected to get!
