has anyone tried emailing instead of calling? what's the best email address to reach them?
I've emailed like 5 times over the past month about a different issue and never got a response. calling is your only real option unfortunately
Emailing is useless, tried it multiple times. You need to call or use a service like claimyr.com to reach an actual person
Check the news! Just saw on channel 4 that there's a technical glitch with the $300 payments affecting multiple states. NY labor department said all payments should be processed by end of week. No need to call or do anything.
finally some official confirmation! wish they would put this on their website
The benefit amount increase is actually good news! I had something similar happen last year - got a random increase of about $2000. Turns out they did a review of my wages and found additional earnings they hadn't counted before. You'll probably get more weekly benefits going forward too!
has anyone figured out whats going on???? same thing happened to me and i need this money for rent asap ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Based on what people are saying, it seems like a system glitch affecting multiple people. The other half of your payment should come through in a few days. If you need to talk to someone ASAP, try claimyr.com - it's the only way I've been able to reach a human at unemployment lately.
thank u!! gonna try that now cause I cant wait days when rents due tomorrow
Dealing with ny unemployment is like trying to nail jello to a wall while blindfolded. And both your hands are tied behind your back. And the jello is on fire.
and someone keeps moving the wall
and the floor is also jello
just watched my payment history disappear a payment too! I swear I'm not crazy. Last Thursday it was there and now it's gone. This system is so broken. Has anyone been able to get this resolved??
my friend had the same thing and said claimyr.com got her through to a rep who fixed it in one call
I feel your pain! The system is designed to make you give up. After trying everything, what worked for me was using claimyr.com to get through to an agent. It's basically a service that does the calling/waiting for you. They call when they get a human on the line. Talking to a real person fixed my issues that had been pending for over a month.

Plot twist: the 48 days you have left are a mirage. The system is trolling you. File a new claim or face the wrath of NYSDOL's passive-aggressive automated letters of doom.

Has anyone actually gotten through to a human being at ny unemployment recently? I feel like I'm trying to call into a radio contest or something... just constant busy signals and disconnects.

•I used claimyr.com after trying for 3 days on my own. Got connected to someone in about 90 minutes. Worth every penny since it got my claim fixed.
