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!

i had an appeal last year and my hearing wasn't scheduled for like 10 weeks after it was accepted!!! its sooooo random how they do it
The timing varies by office, but you can actually check your appeal status by calling 1-888-313-7284 and selecting the appeals option. They should be able to tell you if your hearing has been scheduled even if you haven't received the notice yet. Sometimes the mail is delayed, but they can give you the info over the phone. Also, for the original poster - continue filing your weekly claims while waiting for the appeal hearing! If you win, you'll only get paid for weeks you properly certified.
Yes, those "pending appeal decision" weeks will automatically process if you win your appeal. Keep filing! To answer your earlier question about written statements - while not required, it can be helpful to prepare a brief (1 paragraph) written statement explaining: 1. What happened with the error 2. Your actual availability for work 3. Why this was clearly a mistake You can reference this during your hearing to make sure you don't forget important points when nervous. The referee may also allow you to read it, though they'll still ask follow-up questions. Hearings for availability issues are almost always conducted by phone now. You'll call into a conference line at the appointed time, and the referee will manage the call. Be in a quiet place with good reception.
Thank you! That makes me feel a lot better about the whole process. I'll definitely prepare a short statement so I don't fumble my words during the hearing. Really appreciate all the helpful advice from everyone!

I was going through something similar with my unemployment last year, totally different issue tho. They kept sending me letters saying I didn't complete my work search but I did every single week. Some of these govt workers just don't know what they're doing honestly.
@OP glad you got this sorted but BE CAREFUL - they told me the same thing about "investigating" and then did NOTHING for 2 months! Keep calling every week until they actually fix it in writing. Don't trust anything they say over the phone unless you get it in writing too!!!
Thanks for the warning - I'm definitely going to stay on top of this. I took screenshots of everything in my portal just in case.

Wednesday morning is when I typically see mine too. I'll definitely update here when I find out what happened!
UPDATE: Great news! The payment just hit my new account this morning. So changing direct deposit on Friday DID work in time for my Sunday filing. Just wanted to update in case anyone else has this question in the future. Thanks everyone for your help!
Thanks for coming back to update us! That's helpful information for others in the same situation. Glad it worked out for you!

Just got my card yesterday after waiting almost 4 weeks! The system is so slow right now but at least the money is already there when the card finally arrives. Hang in there!
Thanks for sharing! Glad yours finally came. Hoping mine comes soon too!
UPDATE: My card finally arrived today! Exactly 17 days after my first payment was approved. The envelope really is plain white with just a return address from Tennessee - I almost missed it! Thanks everyone for your help and reassurance.
Great news! Glad it arrived without you having to make any calls. Make sure to activate it right away and set up your account preferences for how you want to manage your benefits going forward.
told ya it would come! 👍

I was in a similar situation last summer when my school district switched bus contractors. Getting through to PA UC was impossible until I used Claimyr.com. They connect you with UC agents by basically waiting on hold for you, then call you when they get someone. Saved me days of frustration and got my claim fixed in one call. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2. Worth it when you're dealing with something complicated like a company buyout situation.

•Does that service actually work??? I've tried calling UC like 50 times for my issue and it's ALWAYS busy!!!

•Yes, it actually does work. I was skeptical too but it got me through to an agent in about 2 hours instead of spending days redialing. The agent cleared up my company transition issue in about 15 minutes once I explained everything.

UPDATE: Finally got through to someone at UC this morning! For anyone with a similar situation: they told me that when there's a company buyout/acquisition, they need to review the claim manually to establish the "successor employer" relationship. The agent put notes on my claim explaining the situation and said it should be resolved within 7-10 days. She also told me to continue filing my weekly certifications in the meantime even though they'll show as "pending" until the issue is fixed. Thanks everyone for your help!
