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!

NYDOL: No unemployment payments for a month despite weekly claims. What to do?

I've been filing my weekly claims for unemployment but haven't received any payments in a month. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm getting worried about how to pay my bills. Any advice on what I should do or who I should contact?

Have you checked if your bank info is correct in the system? I've heard of people's payments getting sent to old accounts.

NYDOL hasn't paid UI in a month, no notices received. What to do?

I haven't received any unemployment payments in a month. My job ended about a month ago and I haven't gotten any notices or letters from the DOL about my claim status. I'm really worried and don't know why the payments haven't been made. Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do when I finally get through to someone on the phone?

No UI payment for 5 weeks - what to do?

Has anyone else not received their unemployment payment for over a month? I'm getting really worried. It's been 5 weeks since my last payment and I don't know what to do. Bills are piling up and I can't get through to anyone on the phone. Any advice would be appreciated!

NYDOL weekly unemployment pay missing for weeks - need help getting through!

Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I haven't gotten my weekly unemployment pay for a few weeks now and I'm starting to get really worried. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm trying to get through to someone on the phone but it's been impossible. Any advice on what I should do or how to get in touch with a real person would be greatly appreciated. I've got all my work search records ready to go, just in case they need to verify anything. This whole situation is stressing me out!

DOL claims I worked on a day I have no record of - How to prove I didn't?

Hey everyone, I'm having an issue with the Department of Labor. They're saying I worked on a day that I have no record of working. I don't know how to prove I didn't work that day. Has anyone dealt with this before? What should I do when I talk to them?

Hey OP, quick question - have you checked if there's any chance you might have done any remote work or training that day? Sometimes that counts as work even if you don't remember it as a full workday.

NYDOL: 3 months, no funds, paperwork submitted. Help!

I applied for unemployment benefits 3 months ago and still haven't received any funds. I've called the DOL office multiple times and even sent in all the paperwork they requested. Has anyone else experienced such a long delay? Any advice on how to speed up the process or get through to someone who can actually help?

Liam Sullivan

Not to be that guy, but are you sure you filled out everything correctly? I thought I had done everything right, but turns out I made a tiny mistake on one form and it held up my whole claim for months.

NYDOL login says incorrect PIN but it's right - No payment in a month, need to talk to agent ASAP

I'm having trouble with my unemployment payment. I haven't received anything in a month, and now when I try to log in, it says my PIN is incorrect. I double-checked, and I'm 100% sure I'm using the right PIN. Has anyone else experienced this? What should I do? I really need to speak with an agent about this.

Sophia Miller

Guys, I heard they're updating the system next week. Might be why everythings so messed up rn. Maybe wait a few days and try again?

Pro tip: if you're gonna use that Claimyr thing, do it early in the morning. I tried it at like 2pm and was on hold forever. Did it again at 8am and got through in 20 mins.

Weekly unemployment pay stopped - work search requirements not met?

Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I haven't gotten my weekly unemployment pay for a few weeks now. I think it might be because I didn't meet my work search requirements. Has anyone else dealt with this? Any advice on what to say when I call them? I'm kinda nervous about talking to them.

Camila Castillo

Pro tip: set reminders on your phone for job searches. I do mine every Monday and Thursday. Haven't missed a week since I started this system. 💯

NYDOL login keeps saying SSN and PIN incorrect - can't get payment for a month!

I'm so frustrated with the unemployment system right now. I've been trying to log in to my account for days, but it keeps saying my SSN and PIN are incorrect. I know for a fact they're right because I've used the PIN to verify over the phone. Has anyone else experienced this? It's been a month since I've received any payment and I'm getting really worried. I can't seem to reach anyone on the phone either. Any advice on how to get through to a real person?
