Death Killer
February 7, 2021
The app broken with technical issues up the wazoo. That is not the only reason I am one starring this though, every contact on that app that gives me a number to reach unemployment agents, the numbers do not work. They don't work at all, some even recommend the other numbers in the phone call, and then promptly hangs up. Unemployment is 100% unreachable, this app is broken, and Maryland is doing nothing to fix it.

At this point I'm confused. I downloaded what I thought was the Beacon 2.0. But everytime I go back to MD unemployment website it sends me somewhere else. So I dont like the setup or layout It's useless. One page says pending and the other website shows exhausted. And can't reach no one to help, I have filled out alot of the inquiry forms, emailed.

I had to uninstall and reinstall the app because of update. It made me aware that it needed to update to operate properly, but there was no provision to do so. Uninstalling and reinstalling was the only option. Also, the communication preferences doesn't seem to do anything. I have it set to text, and I get a text as soon as I take an action, when in fact it should be letting me know when it is time to take an action. It's almost as if my using the app prompts it to generate a text to me.
