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!

After 2 weeks with no update on my UC claim I finally got through to a rep yesterday. Apparently my employer is contesting it (no surprise) but the agent said with my documentation I should be fine. Just a waiting game now!

good luck! employers almost always contest, it's annoying but part of the process. if u have those repair receipts u should be ok. 10 min late is nothing lol

I was in a similar situation with my union job at a steel plant. Got fired for "excessive tardiness" - was late 4 times in 6 weeks due to childcare issues. The union didn't fight for me during the termination but here's what saved me: I kept detailed records of every time I notified my supervisor AND I had the union contract which stated employees get progressive discipline (verbal warning, written warning, then termination). They skipped the written warning step completely! PA UC approved me because the employer didn't follow their own disciplinary procedures. Make sure you get a copy of your union contract and check if they followed all the steps. Also, being 10 minutes late with documented car trouble is NOT willful misconduct - you communicated proactively each time. That shows good faith effort to get to work. You should be fine!

Any update? Did contacting your state rep help move things along?

0 coins

Yes! Finally got some movement after contacting my state rep. Their office called me yesterday saying they inquired with UC and my appeal was actually approved 2 weeks ago but got stuck in processing. Should receive payment within 7-10 days they said. Still frustrated it took this long but relieved it's finally moving forward.

That's such great news that your state rep was able to help! I'm dealing with a similar situation - been waiting 9 weeks for my Board of Review decision after winning at the referee level. My employer didn't show up to that hearing either but here we are still waiting. Definitely going to contact my state rep's office tomorrow morning. Thanks for sharing the update - gives me hope that there might actually be light at the end of this tunnel!

Yes! I finally got through yesterday morning after using the Claimyr service someone recommended here. The UC rep reviewed my doctor's note and cleared both issues on the spot. She said I'll still get partial benefits for the week (they'll just deduct the day I wasn't available). Payment should arrive by next Tuesday. Thanks everyone for the help during such a difficult time.

I'm so glad you got this resolved! Your experience really shows how helpful it can be to have medical documentation ready and to try the callback services when the phone lines are jammed. It's reassuring to hear that PA UC can actually handle these situations properly when you get the right person on the line. Hope you're doing better and taking care of yourself during this difficult time.

my roomate says sometimes he gets the money at like midnight sunday not monday morning so maybe check sunday night too

I've been dealing with PA UC for about 8 months now and can confirm what others are saying - Wednesday filing almost always means Monday payment. The system is pretty rigid about their processing schedule. One thing that might help for future situations like this is setting up direct deposit if you haven't already - it typically hits a few hours earlier than the Money Network card. Also, many landlords are understanding about UC payment delays if you communicate with them ahead of time and show proof of your claim filing. Worth a shot to call them and explain the situation!

Update: I called our state rep's office today and they were super helpful! They said they're seeing tons of delays right now and have a special form they submit to UC for constituents. They're going to follow up and said we should hear something within 7-10 days. Also, husband managed to file the missed weekly certifications (thankfully). Thanks everyone for the advice!

Great to hear! Make sure your husband continues filing weekly claims while waiting. Also, once benefits start, remember he'll need to complete and document his work search activities (at least two per week). Keep all documentation of job applications, emails to employers, etc. They sometimes request verification later.

So glad you were able to get through to your state rep's office! That's really encouraging. I'm dealing with a similar situation - my claim has been pending for 3 weeks now with no updates. Can you share which state rep's office you contacted? I'm wondering if it matters which one you call or if you have to call the one specifically for your district? Also, did they ask for any specific information or documentation when you called, or just basic claim details? Thanks for keeping us updated on your progress!
