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!

btw has anyone had issues with the Money Network card after getting through the cash office review? they finally approved my payments but then the card never showed up and i had to wait ANOTHER two weeks!!
You can check the status of your Money Network card by calling 888-233-5916. Sometimes they get returned to sender if your address has any issues. Also, when you get the card, I recommend immediately transferring the funds to your personal bank account to avoid any potential card issues.
UPDATE: I called again this morning (took forever to get through) and finally got more info. They said the Cash Office review was triggered because I had a previous claim from 2023 and they needed to verify I wasn't getting double payments or something. The rep said it should be processed by Friday! Fingers crossed she's right. Thanks everyone for your help!
Great news! Thanks for updating us. That Friday timeline sounds right based on my experience. The previous claim connection makes sense too - they're very careful about overlapping benefit years.
hope it comes through on time!! let us know what happens

Last time I filed UC they kept saying new card was coming but nothing ever came and then a month later I got a letter saying they were using my old card. The whole system is just confusing af.
Just to clarify for anyone else with this issue in the future: 1. PA UC will always default to using an existing, unexpired Money Network card first 2. Even if the system mentions "issuing a new card," check your existing card first 3. You can verify which card is linked to your claim by calling UC directly 4. Money Network customer service can also tell you if a new card has been issued 5. New cards are typically only issued if you specifically request one or your old one is expired/reported lost Glad you got your money and everything worked out!
This is excellent information that should be pinned somewhere! Thanks so much for the clear explanation. Hopefully it helps others avoid the confusion I experienced.

Regarding your question about timeline - voluntary quit cases with complex circumstances like yours typically take 4-6 weeks for initial determination in PA. If denied and appealed, the appeal hearing is usually scheduled 3-4 weeks after you file the appeal. The referee typically issues a decision within 7-10 days after the hearing. So worst case, you're looking at about 10-12 weeks from initial filing to final appeal decision. Make sure you continue filing your weekly claims during this entire process, even if initially denied!
This is really helpful to know what to expect timeline-wise. I'll definitely keep filing weekly claims no matter what. Is there any way to request expedited processing due to financial hardship?
Oh! Don't forget that when you get that questionaire thing it comes with a DEADLINE. I think maybe just 7 days? My friend missed it and had to start her whole claim over from scratch! Check your portal and email everyday so you don't miss anything they send you.
Thank you for the warning! I've been checking my UC portal daily. Nothing has shown up yet but I'll keep watching for it. Does the deadline start from when they send it or from when I open it in the portal?

the whole system is BROKEN. they make it complicated on purpose so people give up. i hate PA unemployment so much!!!!!
Update: I FINALLY got it working! For anyone else with this problem, here's what fixed it for me: 1. Called Money Network at exactly 7:00am to avoid the wait 2. Asked them to completely reset my online access 3. Waited the full 24 hours they recommended 4. Used Microsoft Edge browser in private browsing mode 5. Made sure to use ALL CAPS for my name exactly as it appears on the card Now I can see that I actually did get both my payments but they were less than I expected because of the tax withholding I selected. Thanks everyone for your help!
Excellent! Glad you got it resolved. The ALL CAPS name format is a strange requirement they don't mention anywhere in their instructions. I've seen this trip up many claimants. For future reference, you can also adjust your tax withholding preferences on your PA UC dashboard if you want to change how much is taken out.

Just wanted to add - if your new determination still doesn't look right, request a wage investigation! Sometimes employers don't report wages correctly or they get recorded under the wrong quarter. Happened to my sister and took 6 weeks to fix but she eventually got everything she was entitled to.
