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!

Not yet - my regular payment day is tomorrow. Fingers crossed it shows up! I'll update when I know.

UPDATE: Just wanted to let everyone know that the partial payment of $174 did post to my Money Network card this morning! Thanks to everyone who helped explain what was happening. The system still shows $0 on my claim summary but the payment history shows the correct amount.

0 coins

btw did u have to do the waiting week? or was this ur first payment?

0 coins

This includes my waiting week. I filed 5 weeks ago, and they finally processed everything. So I'll be getting 4 weeks of payments since the first week is the waiting week where you don't get paid.

0 coins

Just to give you an update: I checked the PA UC processing schedule and if your payment date is 3/1, that means the file was sent to Money Network today (2/29). Money Network typically processes their files overnight, so there's a small chance you could see it tomorrow afternoon, but Monday is more realistic due to their internal processing times.

UPDATE: You were right!! Just checked my Money Network card and the money is there!!! It posted this morning (Monday). Thanks everyone for the help and information. Such a relief to finally have some funds!

hey everyone i literally just logged in and my 1099-G appeared tonight! check your messages again, they must be uploading them in batches

0 coins

Just checked mine and it's there now too! Thanks everyone for the help and reassurance. Guess they're just running a bit behind schedule but getting them out now.

0 coins

Glad to hear your 1099-G showed up! For future reference, if you ever need tax documents from previous years, you can also request them through the PA Department of Revenue's e-TIDES system, which sometimes has them available even when they're not showing up in your UC message center. Always good to have a backup option during tax season.

0 coins

Thanks for this tip! I never knew about e-TIDES having UC tax forms too. That could've saved me so much hassle last year when I had to file an amended return.

My brother waited TWO MONTHS for his interstate claim to pay!! PA is the worst they just don't care about people struggling. Just wait till u get a real person on the phone and then REFUSE to hang up untill they fix it for real!! Don't let them transfer u eaither thats how they get rid of u. If ur senator doesn't help try calling ur state rep office instead sometimes they can help better.

While persistence is important, refusing to hang up isn't the best approach and can actually backfire. Agents are required to end calls that become unproductive, and this approach could result in a note on your account. Instead, I recommend requesting a specific action (like an escalation ticket or interstate verification) that creates a trackable item in their system. This gives you something specific to follow up on in your next call.

Update: I called this morning and finally got someone helpful! Turns out there WAS an open issue on my claim - something called a "CWQ verification hold" that nobody had mentioned before. The agent created an expedited interstate review and said I should see movement within 7-10 days. She also gave me her direct extension to follow up next week if nothing changes. Thank you all for your advice - especially about asking for the right things using their terminology. Will update again when (hopefully) I get paid!

0 coins

That's great news! A CWQ verification hold is exactly what happened in my case too. Once they process the expedited review, you should see all your back payments get released at once. The fact that you got someone's direct extension is HUGE - that rarely happens. Definitely call that extension if you don't see movement in a week.

This happened to me last week too with Chime. I think there might be some changes on their end with how they're processing government payments. My friend who gets SSI had the same issue last week where his payment was about 6 hours later than normal. One thing that's helped me is setting up the Transaction alerts in the Chime app so I get notified immediately when the deposit hits rather than checking constantly. Also, for future reference, it's good to have a small emergency buffer if you can so you're not cutting it so close with bills.

0 coins

That's good advice about the transaction alerts - just set that up! And yeah, I'm trying to build up a buffer but it's been tough since I lost my job. Hopefully I'll find something soon and not have to deal with UC payments anymore.

Mine FINALLY came through at 6:20pm!!! Never been this late before. Seems like something weird was happening with Chime and PA UC today. At least we all got paid eventually!
