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!

hahaha welcome to the wonderful world of NY unemployment where nothing works right and nobody can tell you why! 😂 been on this ride for 7 months now and still missing payments from march.

•7 MONTHS?? bro how are you surviving??

•credit cards, family loans, and ramen noodles my friend. lots and lots of ramen noodles.
There's a new Child Tax Credit hotline specifically for unemployment recipients: 833-981-2377. They set it up last month because so many people were having this exact problem. I called and had my issue fixed in one call.
I just called this number and it's not in service anymore 😕
really?? I called it like 2 weeks ago! These govt agencies are so frustrating with their constant changes.

Anyone know if this will delay our payments this week? I'm seriously counting on that money dropping on Thursday...
If you can certify by midnight tonight you should still get paid on schedule
Carmen Vega
•thx, fingers crossed the system comes back soon then
Called their technical support line and the rep told me they're aware of the issue and working to resolve it. Estimated time to fix is "by end of day" whatever that means 🙄
Ravi Patel
•end of day could mean 11:59pm knowing them lmao

I've helped 3 family members resolve this exact issue in the past month. Fastest solution was using claimyr.com to get through to a live agent. It's the best money I've ever spent to finally get benefits paid quickly. You'll likely need to verify your identity with documents, but a real agent can process this while you're on the phone instead of waiting weeks. Don't delay!

•How long did it take to get the callback? Been thinking about trying this but worried it's just another scam
For me it was about 2 hours. My cousin tried it the same day and got a callback in 3 hours. Way better than me hitting redial all day for a week straight lol. Just make sure you're ready to answer when they call!

classic new york unemployment nonsense. they LOVE to accuse people of fraud with zero evidence. happened to me in 2019 (pre-pandemic) and it took 4 months to fix. the system is designed to frustrate you into giving up.

Make sure you didn't accidentally answer a certification question wrong. I nearly had this happen because I misunderstood a question about being "available for work" during a week I had a medical appointment. Even one wrong answer can trigger fraud flags.
I triple-check all my answers every week, but maybe I slipped up somewhere? It's so stressful when one tiny mistake can cost you everything.

I swear the NYSDOL website was coded by monkeys. It's always glitching out or showing contradictory info. Hang in there OP, and definitely try to talk to a human ASAP.
