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!

UGH the whole system is so confusing!! I've been trying to call the NYS Department of Labor for weeks because my claim got stuck in adjudication and I can't get through to anyone. The automated system just hangs up on you after waiting on hold forever. This is so frustrating when you need help paying bills!
I had the same problem with getting through to NYS Department of Labor on the phone. Someone on here told me about this service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that helps you reach agents. I was skeptical but tried it and actually got through to someone the same day. They have a video demo at https://youtu.be/qyftW-mnTNI that shows how it works. Might be worth checking out if you're stuck.

I had SO much trouble getting through to NYS Department of Labor when my claim got stuck in adjudication for weeks. Calling their phone number was impossible - always busy or I'd get disconnected after waiting an hour. Finally found this service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that actually got me through to a real person at NYS Department of Labor. They have a video demo showing how it works: https://youtu.be/qyftW-mnTNI. Saved me so much stress and got my claim moving again.
That sounds too good to be true - how much does something like that cost?
I was skeptical too but it actually worked. They don't mention pricing upfront but honestly it was worth it to finally talk to someone who could explain what was happening with my claim.
The NYS Department of Labor system is such a nightmare honestly. They make it so hard to get benefits even when you deserve them. I got fired from my last job for 'attendance issues' which was total BS and had to fight for months to get my benefits. Good luck dealing with their bureaucracy.
I feel you on the frustration but don't let that discourage you from filing. The system works for most people, just takes patience.

I had trouble reaching NYS Department of Labor when my employer contested my claim and I needed to provide additional information. Kept getting busy signals for weeks. Finally used this service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that helped me get through to an actual agent. They have a video demo at https://youtu.be/qyftW-mnTNI showing how it works. Saved me so much frustration trying to get my questions answered.
Never heard of that but anything is better than calling 50 times a day and getting hung up on

If you're having trouble getting through to NYS Department of Labor to clarify this or file your claim, I had success using a service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that helped me get connected to an actual agent. They have a video demo at https://youtu.be/qyftW-mnTNI that shows how it works. Really saved me hours of trying to call and getting busy signals.
interesting, never heard of that before but the phone lines are definitely impossible to get through on

The whole system is rigged to make the numbers look better than reality!! They change the formulas every few years and don't count people who want to work but gave up. My brother's been out of work for a year and he's not in their precious statistics anymore.

Same experience here - everyone I know is struggling to find decent work but the news keeps saying unemployment is low. Makes you wonder if they're measuring the right things.
