13 WEEKS AND COUNTING

(Florida)

I lost my job in Florida on Aug 17 and applied for Unemployment immediately. My employer claimed I was at fault.

I appealed and the denial was reversed on Oct. 28. It took way too long for the appeal to take place and now too long to receive funds. I called and was told to wait 21 days.

It is now 21 days still no $. They owe me 13 weeks. I called again and they said to wait a few more weeks. They are putting me out of my house next month and I am hoping the the back payments will pay for security and first month at an apartment. I have lived in this state for over 25 years, worked and paid my taxes and now that I am in need – Bupkus! Hope I get some money soon. I am looking for jobs in other states…can’t be much worse then this one. My best advise would be to complain immediately..don’t get anywhere being polite.
