PFL form upload not working - says no forms uploaded

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble uploading forms to the system. I've signed all the necessary documents, but when I check back, it says no forms have been uploaded for my case. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on what might be causing the problem or how to fix it?

Ugh, I've been there. It's so frustrating when the system doesn't work like it should. Have you tried checking the file format and size? Sometimes they only accept specific formats like PDF or have a size limit.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll double-check the file format and size. Fingers crossed that's the issue 🤞

Good idea! I had a similar problem and it turned out my files were too big. Try compressing them if they're over 5MB.

omg yes! file size was my issue too. took me forever to figure it out 🤦‍♀️

Have you tried using a different browser? Sometimes I have issues with Chrome but Firefox works fine.

This happened to me last month. Turns out there was a glitch in there system and it wasnt actually uploading anything for anyone. Maybe try calling them to see if theres a known issue?

Calling them? LOL good luck with that. I've been on hold for hours before 😭

Actually, I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/DOLxZQb92wM

Wait, seriously? That sounds too good to be true. Has anyone else tried this?

Yep, I've used it twice now. Saved me hours of waiting. It's legit.

Here's what I've learned from dealing with this issue multiple times: 1. File format: Make sure you're using PDF. They don't accept other formats. 2. File size: Keep it under 5MB. Compress if needed. 3. File name: Don't use special characters or spaces. Use underscores instead. 4. Browser: Try different browsers. Chrome works best for me. 5. Timing: Sometimes the system is down for maintenance. Try early morning or late night. 6. Clear cache: Clear your browser cache and cookies before trying again. 7. Different device: If possible, try uploading from a different device. If none of these work, it might be a system issue on their end. In that case, you'll need to contact them directly. Good luck!

For real. My grandma could design a better system than this 😂
