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 ā 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!

Here's a comprehensive guide on what to expect after receiving your determination letter: ā¢ Keep certifying weekly, without fail ā¢ Check your bank account or debit card (if you chose that option) regularly for deposits ā¢ Be prepared for a potential interview if there are any discrepancies ā¢ Keep checking your online account for updates or messages ā¢ Don't ignore any mail from the DOL, even if you're receiving benefits ā¢ If you start working again, report your income accurately ā¢ If you don't receive payment within 2-3 weeks, consider contacting them Remember, every case is different, but this should give you a general idea of the process. Good luck!
Wow, this is super helpful! Thanks for taking the time to write all this out. I'll definitely follow these steps.
This should be pinned tbh. So many ppl come here asking the same questions over and over š

am i the only 1 who thinks its ridiculous we gotta jump through all these hoops just to get whats owed to us? the system is broken af
It's frustrating for sure, but remember the system wasn't designed to handle this many claims at once. They're doing their best with limited resources.

Hey, fellow vet here (though not disabled). Just wanted to say don't let the bureaucracy get you down. Keep pushing and advocating for yourself. You've got this! šŖ
Thanks for the encouragement! It means a lot coming from another vet. I'll definitely keep pushing!

Has anyone else noticed that the NYDOL website is always down for maintenance when you actually need to use it? It's like they're trolling us at this point š
Isaiah Cross
ā¢omg yes! I swear it's some kind of conspiracy to make us give up
Kiara Greene
ā¢Pro tip: try accessing the site super early in the morning or late at night. Less traffic = better chance of it working
Evelyn Kelly
Hang in there, OP! I know it's stressful, but try to stay positive. I was in your shoes a few months ago and it all worked out eventually. Sending good vibes your way! āØ

Pro tip: if u get through, ask for a tier 2 specialist right away. They have more power to fix stuff like waiting week errors.
Oh that's good to know! I'll definitely try that if I ever manage to get someone on the line. Thanks!
guys i think i found a loophole. if you file a new claim it sometimes resets the waiting week. worked for my cousin. might be worth a try?
Careful with this advice. Filing a new claim when you shouldn't can mess things up even more. Always double check before doing something like that.
oh shoot, ur right. my bad. def check first!

Anyone else notice that ever since they "upgraded" the unemployment system last month, everything's been even slower? Great job, govt ššš

Pro tip: if u cant get thru on the main line, try calling one of the employer-specific numbers and then ask to be transfered to claims. Worked for me!
