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!

Here's what worked for me and others I know trying to reach NY unemployment: 1. Call exactly at 8am EST when they open 2. If you get the busy signal, hang up and redial immediately 3. Have your claim info and last employer details ready 4. Use claimyr.com if you're desperate - they'll wait on hold for you 5. Avoid calling on Mondays and early afternoon hours 6. Try the alternate number: 888-209-8124 7. If you get through, write down the agent's name Remember they're dealing with thousands of calls. Being patient and prepared makes everything smoother for everyone. Good luck! 💯

Here's a detailed guide for getting your 1099-G: 1. Create new ID.me account first 2. Once verified, log into NY unemployment portal 3. Click on 'My Documents' or 'Forms' 4. Look for '1099-G' section 5. Select tax year 2020 If website still gives problems, fastest solution is using claimyr.com to reach an agent who can email it immediately. Otherwise you'll spend hours on hold. Last resort: mail request to: NYSDOL Tax Documents PO Box 1979 Albany, NY 12201 Include: Full name, SSN, address, phone, years needed
Thank you! This is super helpful 🙏

Here's the deal with late claims (I work in HR and deal with this alot): First off, always try to claim on your regular day. But if you're late: - Payment usually processes 1-3 business days after claiming - Sometimes can take up to 5 business days - If nothing after a week, definitely call them - Use claimyr.com if you cant get through on phones - Next week claim on your normal day to get back on schedule The system is pretty rigid but they will pay you, just might take longer than usual.
this is super helpful, tysm! 🙏
