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!

idk about refunds but im STILL waiting on my back pay from 2 months ago 😡
same boat. system is completely broken.
you need to talk to an agent directly. only way to fix backpay issues. I used claimyr.com and got mine sorted in one call

Check if this is connected to the recent tax adjustment thing. I know they've been adjusting unemployment tax withholdings for some people. Maybe this was related to that but processed incorrectly?
I hadn't thought of that! I did file taxes in March so maybe it's connected somehow
If all else fails, try the phone service claimyr to get through to unemployment. Then refuse to hang up until they transfer you to a supervisor who can actually help. Regular agents just read from scripts and can't fix unusual problems like this.
can confirm this works - supervisors have way more authority to fix weird situations

Check your payment history on the ny unemployment website. It tells you exactly how many effective days you have left. Each effective day is 1/4 of your weekly benefit. So 4 effective days = 1 week of benefits.
Oh that's helpful! I've got 54 effective days left according to the website.
So that's 13.5 weeks which would take you to mid-September, but since the programs end Sept 4, that's your cutoff date.
These unemployment questions are getting too complicated for reddit tbh. I'd call and ask a specialist. You'll need to talk to NYSDOL eventually for the BYE date stuff anyway.
Lol good luck calling them! 😂 Been trying for weeks to get through.
Try claimyr.com - worked for me when I couldn't get through for a month straight

your bank may have resources to help too! I work at a credit union and we have a whole department that helps members with identity theft. they can't fix the unemployment issue directly but can help protect your other accounts and credit.
How did you even find out? Now I'm paranoid someone could be collecting in my name and I wouldn't even know...
I only found out when I got a 1099-G tax form showing unemployment income I never received. You could request a wage and income transcript from the IRS to see if there's anything fishy on your record.
Thx for the tip, definitely gonna check that out. This is terrifying tbh

Wondering if I'll get one of these too. I was on unemployment from March-September 2020 and filed taxes in February 2021. Nothing in my account yet. Anyone know if they're still sending these out?

My tax guy told me the IRS is way behind on these adjustments and should be processing them through the end of the year. If you got unemployment in 2020 and filed before the tax law changed in March 2021, you're probably getting something. The IRS TREAS 310 code is definitely their refund code.
