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!

make sure you check your payment method on your dashboard! my friend won her appeal but her payments were going to an old debit card she didn't have anymore and she had to call to update it which took forever
Cole Roush
•Good point! Just checked and my payment method is set to direct deposit to my current bank account, so at least that's ready to go.
Quick update - I just received all my back payments today! Exactly 9 business days after my hearing. My claim status updated to "Active" on day 7, and the money hit my account 2 days later. All 18 weeks paid at once. Such a relief!
Derek Olson
•That's excellent news! This timeline aligns with what we typically expect for straightforward cases where everything is properly documented. Make sure to print or save digital copies of your payment history just in case there are any questions in the future.
Congrats!! Now just pray they don't come back a year later saying it was all a mistake and demand everything back with penalties like they did to my cousin 🙄

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.
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.

this happened to me too!! i freaked out thinking i wasnt going to get paid!! turns out it was just showing that i had 1 week during my last claim where i didnt qualify cause i made too much at my part time job that week. as long as ur current weeks dont say 'disqualified' ur probably ok!
yep same. pa uc system is so old and weird with how it shows things
Noah Lee
Just to add onto what others have said - it might be worth checking your 'Claim Summary' page to see if there are any outstanding issues listed for your current benefit year. That's different from the dashboard status and would show any actual problems with your current claim. The Previous Claim message is just historical info.
I checked my Claim Summary and there aren't any outstanding issues listed for my current benefit year! And my payment actually came through today, just a day late compared to usual. So it looks like everything is fine after all. Thanks for the help everyone!

this is EXACTLY why i tell everyone to record every conversation with UC!! they make "mistakes" all the time and then we have to jump through hoops to fix THEIR errors. the whole system is designed to wear us down until we give up
Nia Davis
•Is it legal to record calls with UC representatives in Pennsylvania? I thought PA was a two-party consent state where both people need to know they're being recorded.
Sean Murphy
One final piece of advice: if the Commonwealth Court rules in your favor, it's often a remand back to the UC authorities with instructions to correct the procedural errors. This doesn't automatically mean you'll receive benefits - it usually means you get a new, properly conducted hearing. So be prepared for that possibility and don't assume a win at this level means immediate payment.
Diego Vargas
•That makes sense. At this point I'd be happy just to get a fair hearing where they're actually looking at MY information instead of mixing it up with other people's claims. Thanks for setting realistic expectations.
Dominique Adams
btw did u have to do the waiting week? or was this ur first payment?

•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.

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!
