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 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!
how did u get through??? i've been trying for days!!!
I used that Claimyr service someone mentioned above. Honestly didn't think it would work but it did! Got a call back when they reached an agent.

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 would just keep claiming weeks and wait it will probly fix itself thats what happened with my brothers claim the system is just slow sometimes
This is unfortunately incorrect advice for this specific situation. When weeks are in this "limbo" status after refiling, they will NOT automatically fix themselves in the system. They require manual intervention by a claims examiner. Continuing to file for current weeks is good advice, but without contacting UC about the missing weeks, they could potentially be lost.
UPDATE: Finally got through to someone at UC! The agent confirmed what @helpfulUCexpert said - those weeks were stuck in a review status because of the transition between claim years. They weren't showing on my summary page because they were flagged for manual review. The agent was able to see them in their system and has now pushed them through for payment! For anyone with a similar issue - don't assume the weeks are gone just because they don't show up on your summary page. They might be in the system but not visible to you. And definitely keep trying to reach someone because these weeks won't process automatically.
great news! how did u finally get thru to them? i'm dealing with same problem now

my friend works at UC and says there were TONS of fraud cases after covid. ppl using random ssn's to file claims. make sure u check ur daughters credit report too!
Just wanted to add one more important point - make sure to secure a copy of the fraudulent claim details from PA UC during your fraud report. This will show exactly when the claim was filed, what information was used, and any contact details the fraudster provided. This can help with the police report and potentially help catch whoever is doing this. Ask specifically for the "claim filing details" as they sometimes don't provide this automatically during fraud reports.
Thank you for this additional advice. I'll specifically ask for the claim filing details when I call. I'm really hoping they can trace who did this.

Update: I managed to get through to someone at the Referee Office this morning. They confirmed it's a phone hearing and that they'll use the number on file. I also asked about submitting my documents late, and the person said I could email them today with "URGENT" in the subject line and my appeal number, and they'd try to get them to the referee before Friday. Fingers crossed everything works out! Thanks everyone for your help.

•That's great news! Just a tip - at the beginning of the hearing, confirm with the referee that they received your documents. If they didn't, ask if you can briefly describe the content of the documents during your testimony. Good luck with your appeal!

I had an appeal last year and my employer didn't even show up for the call! Made it so much easier and I won automatically. Hope you get lucky like that!

•That's not entirely accurate. You don't automatically win if the employer doesn't participate, though it does typically make things easier. The referee still needs to determine if you meet eligibility requirements based on the evidence and testimony available.
