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!

This happened back in January too. I remember because my car payment was due and I had to call and explain the delay. PA Treasury does these maintenance periods every few months. My roommate got her deposit already though - she has the Money Network card instead of direct deposit.

Thanks for sharing that. Maybe I should switch to the Money Network card if this is going to be a regular thing. Do you know if there's a way to see when these maintenance periods are scheduled in advance?

Just got off the phone with UC (finally!). They confirmed it's a Treasury processing delay affecting all direct deposits that would normally go out Tuesday. Everything should be deposited by Thursday morning. The rep also mentioned that there will be a similar maintenance period in July, so mark your calendars. Hope this helps!

My neighbor went thru something similar and what really helped was having written statements from coworkers who witnessed the harassment. Do you have anyone who would be willing to write a statement for you?

0 coins

That's a great idea! I have two coworkers who witnessed a lot of the bad behavior and I think they'd be willing to write something. I'll reach out to them today.

Just to clarify something important: if the examiner determines you quit without good cause, they will NOT make you repay the benefits you received while on reduced hours before quitting. Those benefits were properly paid based on your eligibility at that time. The quit determination only affects benefits going forward from your last day of work.

Thank you SO much for clarifying that. I was having nightmares about having to pay back thousands I don't have. At least that's one less thing to worry about.

Yes! A doctor's statement would be extremely valuable evidence. Ideally, it should confirm: 1. The medical necessity of the surgery 2. Why it couldn't be postponed 3. The required recovery time 4. Any work restrictions during recovery This documentation directly supports your claim that you had a necessitous and compelling reason to leave employment. Have your doctor address it "To Whom It May Concern" and make it as specific as possible about your particular situation. General notes are less helpful than statements that directly address the circumstances of your unemployment claim.

OP listen to this person! Medical documentation is THE key to winning these appeals. My case dragged on for months until I finally got my surgeon to write a detailed letter explaining everything. After that, they reversed the decision in like 2 weeks. The system is designed to wear you down so you'll give up. DON'T GIVE UP!

wait i'm confused abt something... if you had a surgery and your employer denied time off, couldn't you have filed for FMLA instead of quitting? doesn't that protect your job? not criticizing just wondering if that was an option

That's actually a good question. I wasn't eligible for FMLA because I'd only been at the company for 9 months, and you need to be employed for 12 months to qualify. Otherwise I definitely would have gone that route!

This is an important distinction for your case. Make sure to mention your FMLA ineligibility in your appeal. It further strengthens your argument that you had no alternative but to resign, as you lacked access to federally protected medical leave.

UPDATE: I FINALLY got through to someone! Turns out it was a system glitch because my claim had hit exactly 26 weeks total (counting the weeks I didn't claim when I briefly had a job in February). The rep said sometimes when claims hit certain milestones, the system automatically does a review and can incorrectly apply a waiting week during that process. She removed the waiting week designation and said my payment should process normally within 2-3 business days. She also mentioned they're seeing this happen more frequently lately and are working on a fix. So if this happens to anyone else, keep calling until you get through - it's definitely an error they can fix! Thanks everyone for your help!

THIS is why I tell everyone to DOCUMENT EVERYTHING with PA UC! Take screenshots of every confirmation page, write down what questions you answered and how. The system makes so many mistakes and then YOU have to prove what happened!

try calling ur state rep!!!!! they helped my cousin when his money was stuck for like 2 weeks. sometimes they can push it through faster

This is actually good advice. State representatives' offices often have dedicated staff who can escalate unemployment issues. Their constituent services can sometimes get results when normal channels fail. Just make sure you have your claim ID number and all relevant dates ready when you contact them.

UPDATE: Just checked my card at 6am and the money FINALLY showed up!!! 😅 That's 5 days total after filing my claim and 3 days after getting the "payment processed" email. No explanation, no pending transaction, it just appeared. Guess I'll need to adjust my bill payment schedule going forward to account for these delays. Thanks everyone for the advice and commiseration!

Glad to hear it came through! This seems to be the new normal with Money Network unfortunately. Better to expect 5 days and be pleasantly surprised if it's faster.
