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!

The fact that the burden of proof is on US and not THEM is so backwards. They would not have paid you if you had not certified - that's literally how the system works! I wrote a letter stating exactly that, along with my bank statements showing regular payments, and fortunately they accepted it. You shouldn't need to prove something they already know happened.

Yo they are mad strict these days with verifying self-employment. My buddy just got hit with a $22k overpayment bill cuz they said his documentation wasn't sufficient. He submitted Schedule C but they wanted more proof that he was actually working before covid. Def include anything else you can find.
Send Schedule C plus any of these if you have them: - Proof of advertising your services - Business cards - Website screenshots - Client testimonials - Social media posts about your work - Text messages arranging jobs They're looking for anything that proves you were legitimately self-employed and not just claiming it to get benefits.
I do have some old business cards and texts arranging jobs! Never thought those would come in handy for this. Thank you.

I used to work at unemployment (not in NY but similar system). The $0 wage issue is usually because the computer pulls from the quarterly wage report database. If your employer messed up the reporting or the system glitched during import, your wages vanish. An actual human needs to manually override it. Regular agents can't do this - only hearing officers or claims specialists have the access.
typical government efficiency 🤡
It's actually a security feature, not incompetence. Giving every agent ability to override wage data would create massive fraud opportunities. The system is designed with separation of duties.

NY unemployment is alive and well my friend! Just make sure u answer all the questions honestly and keep detailed records of your job search. They sometimes do random audits where they ask for proof that you've been looking for work.
