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!

Double check that ur bank account info is correct in the system. My friend had a similar issue and it turned out they were trying to send payments to her old closed account. Super stupid that they wouldn't tell her that was the problem!

•Just checked and my banking info is all correct. Such a frustrating system!

Sometimes identity verification issues happen because of name mismatches between different documents. Make sure your name on your ID exactly matches what you put on your unemployment application, down to middle initials and suffixes.

Ok so, NEVER trust what the unemployment website says about payments being released! I went through this exact thing in October. Website said payment released, KeyBank had nothing. Turns out there was a "security hold" that didn't show online. Had to call unemployment (used claimyr.com to get through) and specifically ask about security holds. Agent released it and money showed up the next day.

•sounds like one of those ads that pops up everywhere. anyone ACTUALLY try this? i'm desperate at this point
I used it last month, it worked. They basically just call repeatedly and wait on hold so you don't have to. When an agent picks up, they call your phone.

Don't panic yet! Sometimes the KeyBank system takes up to 10 business days to process deposits from unemployment, especially for larger backpay amounts. My payment took 8 business days to appear despite showing as released on the DOL website.
Thanks for this! Gives me a little hope. I'll wait a few more days before totally freaking out.

another day, another company promising to fix the unfixable unemployment system lol
people in the thread talking about some service called claimyr that supposedly gets you through to actual humans at unemployment. sounds too good to be true tbh

•I actually used it last month when my account got locked. It worked but I was already on my last nerve with the whole system by then

Have you tried using a different device entirely? My laptop wouldn't work but my girlfriends iPad did the trick for some reason.

anyone else think this whole id.me thing started happening right when the new budget year kicked in? feels like they trying to slow down payments to save money...just saying
Nia Thompson
•maybe both can be true? timing seems sus to me
my cousin works for the state (not unemployment) and says there was a major data breach they haven't publicly announced yet
I swear dealing with ny unemployment has become a full time job itself 💀

This whole system is a joke. I switched to direct deposit to my Chase account after dealing with KeyBank issues for months. Took filling out extra paperwork but worth it to avoid this stress every few weeks.
