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!

my bank always shows pending deposits like a day before they actually hit my account. maybe check if u have any pending transactions?

Good idea - just checked but nothing pending yet. Will keep an eye on that though!

did u get the money yet??? im in almost the same situation and wondering what happened

Update: It just hit my account this morning! So that was about 3 business days after the payment date showed up in the system. Such a relief!

It's ridiculous how they constantly change these requirements without properly notifying people! I wish they would just UPDATE THEIR WEBSITE with clear instructions instead of making us all panic and figure it out through trial and error. My claim was under review for the same reason but just got approved today (after 9 days of stress and checking the portal constantly). This is my livelihood they're messing with!!!

omg 9 days of review? thats so stressful! but good to know it eventually went thru. i'm on day 4 of review status and checking like crazy too

I just checked the official PA UC website to make sure I had accurate information. Here's what it says about seasonal workers: "Claimants with a definite recall date within 12 weeks from their last day of work may be exempt from work search requirements." The key word is "may" - they evaluate each case. Make sure your employer has actually registered your recall date with the UC system, not just told you verbally. That might be why some people are having their claims reviewed while others aren't.

That's a really good point about the employer registering the recall date. I'm not sure if my boss just gave me a verbal date or if he actually submitted something to UC. I'll call him tomorrow to check on this. Thanks for looking up the exact policy!

I just checked and mine finally came through too! That was stressful. I wish they'd put a notice on the website or something when these delays happen instead of leaving everyone panicking and jamming up the phone lines.

0 coins

They'll NEVER do that because they don't care about us. If they actually communicated about delays, they might have to ADMIT there are problems with their precious system. I've been dealing with these random delays for almost 2 years and not ONCE have they ever posted any kind of notice. We're just supposed to sit here and stress while they take their sweet time with OUR MONEY.

this happened to me back in january too, always seems to happen when theres bad weather wonder if thats related?? my brother works at a bank and he says sometimes the ACH system gets backed up

0 coins

Your brother is correct. The ACH (Automated Clearing House) system that processes direct deposits operates in batches. Weather events, high volume processing days, and technical issues can all cause delays. The PA Treasury processes the payments once your UC claim is approved, then it goes through the ACH system before hitting your bank. Delays can happen at any stage, but as long as your payment shows 'issued' in the portal, it's usually just a matter of waiting.

btw make sure u certified for ur benefits on time every week or they can delay ur payments

To summarize the correct information: 1. The payment date shown in your portal (5/22) is when the payment is processed by PA UC 2. For Money Network cards, funds typically appear 1 business day after the payment date 3. Most users report seeing deposits in the morning hours 4. You can track deposits by using the Money Network mobile app 5. If your payment doesn't appear within 2 business days of the payment date, you should contact PA UC Hope this helps clarify things!

Thank you for this clear summary! This community has been so helpful. I feel much better now knowing what to expect.

One more thing to be aware of - once you get your card, you'll need to activate it before you can access your funds. And if you want to transfer the money to your bank account instead of using the card, you can do that through the Money Network mobile app or website. There's usually no fee for ACH transfers to your bank, but it takes 2-3 business days. If you need the money faster, you can withdraw cash at an ATM (there may be fees depending on which ATM you use) or use the card for purchases.

0 coins

Thank you! That's super helpful. I'll definitely set up the transfer to my bank once I get the card. What a mess this has been. I can't believe they just switch your payment method without any notification.
