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!

Good tip - I've been keeping detailed records of my job applications and networking. Should have all the required work search activities documented and ready to go.

One final tip: When you successfully file your new claim after your BYE date, there will typically be a 1-2 week gap before payments resume. This is normal as they process your new application. Make sure you continue filing your weekly certifications during this period, even if the system shows your claim as pending. This ensures you'll receive all eligible payments once the new claim is approved.

Thank you! I'll keep filing my weekly certifications regardless of the status. Really appreciate everyone's help with navigating this!

UPDATE: I used Claimyr this morning and actually got through to a person! The representative said my claim did go through but got flagged because of the late filing. She said the system automatically puts claims like mine into a review status, which is why I couldn't see it. She released the hold and said my claim should show up in my dashboard within 48 hours. I'll post another update when I see it. Thank you everyone for the help and advice during my panic mode!

Great news! Just make sure to check your dashboard tomorrow as well. Sometimes it updates faster than they estimate. And remember to file your weekly certification on your regular day this week, even if the claim still isn't visible yet.

glad u got help! wish id known about that service months ago lol. let us know if u actually get paid!

Will do! The rep did say I'll probably have an "issue" for the late week that will need to be reviewed, but that my regular weeks going forward should process normally. Fingers crossed!

UPDATE: I finally got in! Followed the detailed steps from @profile2 and waited until 2:30pm. System is working now. For anyone else having this issue - definitely do a full computer restart and try a different browser. Thanks everyone for your help!

Glad it worked for you! Make sure to save your work search information somewhere separate before submitting in case it happens again. The PA UC system tends to have these hiccups every few months, especially around the beginning of a new quarter.

Well the site's still not working for me and now I'm completely locked out until tomorrow. My claim is due TOMORROW. This is going to delay my payment, isn't it? I hate this system so much. Every time I think things are going smoothly something like this happens!!!

If you're completely locked out due to too many attempts, you might need to call for a PIN reset. Since your claim is due tomorrow, I'd suggest calling first thing in the morning. Ask specifically for them to both reset your PIN AND put a note in your file about the system issues so your payment won't be delayed. They can make exceptions for technical problems on their end.

my cousin works for PA careerlink and she says they got a whole department just to handle these kinda glitches lol

0 coins

That's the Interface Resolution Unit, and they only handle backend issues. Individual claimants still need to contact the UC Service Center for account-specific problems.

UPDATE: Issue RESOLVED! I followed the advice about checking my CareerLink data sharing settings and sure enough, that permission was turned off. I enabled it, then called UC using that Claimyr service (which actually worked really well). The agent confirmed they could now see my registration and manually cleared the red warning. She also noted my recall date exemption in my file to prevent future issues. Thanks everyone for your help! What a relief!

So glad you got it fixed in time! This system causes so much unnecessary stress.

Great to hear! Make sure to continue filing your weekly certifications as normal, even with the work search exemption.

my brother had the same thing last month and he got a job and they paid him all back pay like 2 weeks after he started working it was weird timing lol

0 coins

To summarize what everyone is saying: 1. KEEP filing your weekly claims even after you start working 2. Report your work and earnings accurately (what you EARNED that week, not what you got paid) 3. Continue filing until your issues are resolved and you get your back pay 4. Try to reach PA UC either through normal channels, Claimyr, or contacting your state representative if needed You're absolutely entitled to benefits for the weeks you were eligible and properly filed claims. Finding a job doesn't erase that eligibility. Good luck with your interview!

Thanks everyone for all the helpful advice! I'll keep filing my weekly claims and make sure to report any income correctly. I'll try using Claimyr to talk to someone about my open issue too. Fingers crossed I get the job AND my back pay eventually!
