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!

If u live near a career center, go in person. The one in Buffalo helped me when nobody would answer my calls. Bring ID and all your paperwork. The wait might be long but at least u talk to someone.

If you still get paper mail from them, the 1099G should arrive soon. But honestly, the online version is available sooner. I'd check there first. Just login and look under tax documents.

Have yu tried going to a career center in person? sometimes face to face is better than these phone calls tbh
Most career centers can't help with claim issues anymore. They'll just tell you to call the main number. Ask me how I know 🤦♀️
ok so im in THIS EXACT situation right now. overpayment notice came outta nowhere. turns out they think I didnt report some freelance income (i did report it all). i finally got through using claimyr.com after two weeks of trying the regular number. agent told me it was a system error and fixed it on the spot. try that, seriously.

Have you tried going to one of the actual unemployment offices in person? Sometimes that's the only way to get help with complex issues.
Most NY unemployment offices are still appointment only and guess what? The only way to make an appointment is.... by phone 🙃
You're kidding me. That's the most ridiculous catch-22 ever.

here's a weird tip but it worked for me - try using Microsoft Edge browser instead of Chrome or Safari. something about the ID.me system works better with Edge for some reason 🤷♀️

If nothing else works, contact your state representative or senator's office! I was stuck in ID.me hell for THREE MONTHS until I contacted my state senator. Their office has special contacts at unemployment and fixed my issue in 48 hours. No joke.

•Wow I didn't even think about this option. How do I find my state rep?

•Google "who is my NYS senator" or "who is my NYS assembly member" - there are lookup tools where you enter your address. Their offices literally have staff dedicated to unemployment issues now!
