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!

WHY does PA make EVERYTHING so complicated?? I swear they do this on purpose to stop people from getting their money. I had to call 47 TIMES before someone picked up to help with my card issue. The whole system is broken and nobody cares!!
agreed its pretty bad. my brother in ohio got his unemployment on a regular direct deposit to his bank account. why cant PA do that??? the cards are just another way for them to make it complicated

Did you ever get this resolved? I'm having the exact same issue right now with my Money Network card saying my account is unregistered. Been trying to figure it out all morning.

•Yes! Finally got it working yesterday. The trick of pressing 0 twice worked to get me to a human. Turns out there was a typo in my date of birth in their system that was causing the verification to fail. The rep fixed it and walked me through the registration process. Now I can access everything online too. Definitely keep trying to reach someone directly!

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?
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.

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!
NebulaNinja
•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.
congrats!! told ya itd come eventually. this system is so broken lol

I filed for unemployment back in January and made a small mistake on my application. Couldn't get through on the phone for weeks. Finally got my neighbor's daughter (who used to work at UC) to look at my paperwork and she immediately spotted the issue and told me how to fix it. Saved me weeks of waiting! I bought her dinner as thanks but would've paid actual money if needed. Sometimes you just need someone who knows what all those weird codes and terms mean.
That's exactly the kind of situation I was thinking about. Glad it worked out for you! It's helpful to hear about real-world examples where this kind of expertise made a difference.
I think the bottom line is: would this service help people get benefits they're LEGALLY entitled to but might miss out on due to confusion, mistakes, or system complexity? If yes, then it seems valuable and ethical. If it's about helping people game the system or get benefits they don't qualify for, that's a hard no. Based on my experience with PA UC (three claims over the past 5 years), I think most people just need help understanding the process and avoiding simple mistakes that can cause weeks of delays. If former reps can provide that service at a reasonable price, I'd support it.
That makes so much sense! I don't want to do anything wrong or illegal, I just want help figuring out why my claim keeps saying "pending" and nobody will answer the phone! I would definitely pay for someone to just help me understand what's happening!!

Let us know how it goes! And don't give up - the system is DESIGNED to be confusing and make you want to quit trying. That's how they save money. KEEP CALLING and document EVERYTHING!

Quick update for anyone finding this thread with similar issues: PA UC is currently experiencing higher than normal processing times. If your weeks are showing as "in progress" for more than 21 days, you should call the service center. A common reason for delays is income verification, especially if you had variable income or worked for multiple employers during your base year. Having your employment and income documentation ready when you call can help expedite the process.

•UPDATE: I finally got through to someone at UC today! You were right - they had an "income verification issue" on my claim. The rep said they should release the payment for those other weeks in 3-5 business days. Thanks for all the advice everyone!
