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 you need to know about missing payments after BYE dates: - After BYE date, system automatically reviews your claim - Backpay is processed once review is complete - Usually takes 2-3 weeks for payments to resume - All certified weeks should be paid retroactively - Keep certifying every week without fail If you need immediate answers, try claimyr.com to get through to an agent. Much better than waiting on hold forever. Source: went through this myself last month
this is super helpful tysm!! 🙏

This is why everyone's using claimyr.com now. No point trying to visit offices when they're all closed or useless. The phone system actually works if you can get through.

is it in person or virtual?
mine was in person but i think it depends on your location

Here's a detailed breakdown of what to do if this happens to anyone else: First, keep ALL your work search records organized. I mean everything - screenshots, emails, confirmations, whatever. Create a folder on your computer and back it up. Second, if you get hit with penalties, immediately request supervisor intervention at your career center. Be polite but firm. Third, send a detailed appeal email with all your evidence attached. Timeline everything. Fourth, if you need to reach them quickly, use claimyr.com to get through instead of waiting on hold forever. Fifth, request a hearing right away if they don't fix it immediately. Don't wait. The system's broken but you can protect yourself if you stay organized 💯

There's actually a calculator on the ny.gov website but its buried deep af. Go to unemployment > resources > benefit calculator. Just plug in your quarterly earnings and it'll show your weekly amount

If your claim is pending this long you need to call them asap! Try early morning or use claimyr.com to get through. Waiting since May isn't normal, something might be wrong with your claim
