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!

New York Unemployment: Claim Complete but No Benefit Rate After Weeks

Already provided everything to unemployment for my claim. They confirmed having all documents needed to process it but its been weeks now and still no benefit rate. Been checking my account everyday but nothing changes. Called multiple times but cant get through to anyone. Getting really worried about bills piling up while waiting.

New York Unemployment: When to file new claim after BYE date 6/30/24?

My claim is expiring at the end of June. Not sure if I should file a new claim right away or wait until next week to submit it. Anyone know the best timing for this? Really dont want to mess this up and have delays.

These BYE dates are such a pain fr. System needs a serious update its not 1995 anymore smh

facts! whole website looks like it was made on geocities 🤣

Listen up because this is important. Here's exactly what you need to do for your BYE date transition: First, complete your final certification for the current claim as normal. After that, wait until the following Monday to file your new claim. Have these docs ready: - Last 18 months of employment history - Accurate dates and contact info for employers - Your separation reason from each job - Social security card and ID If you need to speak with someone (which you probably will), use claimyr.com - they'll get you through to an agent without the endless calling. The biggest mistake people make is filing too early or not having their docs ready. Trust me, I learned this the hard way.

Missed first no pay week claim - now can't certify weekly benefits on New York Unemployment

Filed my claim in early September and got all my paperwork. I missed certifying for the waiting week and now the system won't let me claim my weekly benefits at all. When I call the automated line it just says they're still processing my claim. Anyone else deal with this? What should I do?

quick question - did u get any letters in the mail about this? wondering if they sent anything about the missed certification

Missing 7 weeks of unemployment payments ($4,200) between February-March 2023 despite recent payments being released

Just got my claims released but there's a big gap in my payments. Missing about 7 weeks between February 5th and March 26th, 2023. My weekly benefit rate is $604. The payments after March 26th are coming through fine but there's this weird gap. I can see in my payment history that all my recent weeks were released on 05/05/2023 via Direct Deposit: - Week Ending 04/30/2023: $604.00 (4 effective days) - Week Ending 04/23/2023: $604.00 (4 effective days) - Week Ending 04/16/2023: $604.00 (4 effective days) - Week Ending 04/09/2023: $604.00 (4 effective days) - Week Ending 04/02/2023: $604.00 (4 effective days) - Week Ending 03/26/2023: $604.00 (4 effective days) Then there's this big gap until: - Week Ending 02/05/2023: $0.00 (4 effective days) - Listed as "Waiting week" with release date 05/03/2023 I qualify for 4 effective days each week to receive my total weekly benefit rate. The system says "For each day in the week that you are not eligible to receive benefits you will receive one less effective day which is equivalent to one fourth of your weekly benefit rate." It also mentions "You can receive a maximum of 104 effective days on your claim." I've checked and my Benefit Year Ending date hasn't passed. I understand that if I remain unemployed after the BYE date, I would need to file a new claim immediately. The payment history shows all my recent payments as "Direct Deposit" but I'm missing those payments between February 5th and March 26th. That's about 7 weeks of payments at $604 each, which is over $4,200! Anyone know what could be causing this gap? Is it because of the "waiting week" notation? Should I contact KeyBank Customer Service at (866) 295-2955 or should I call the unemployment office directly? I need to get this fixed ASAP as I'm counting on that money.

ny unemployment system is such a joke fr like why they make everything so complicated 🤡

Claimed late on Wednesday instead of Sunday - When will I get paid?

Filed my weekly claim a few days late - normally claim on Sunday but had to do it Wednesday this week. The website shows I claimed but no payment release date yet. Getting nervous about when the money will come through. Anyone deal with this before?

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.
