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!

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!

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!
glad u got it fixed!!! the system is so broken smh

•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!

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
Ava Thompson
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.
Amara Eze
•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!

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
Nia Wilson
•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.
Zara Mirza
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

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!
