Ugh, been there done that. The NYDOL system is a nightmare sometimes. Have you tried waiting a few hours and then logging back in? Sometimes it resets itself.

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video explaining it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Here's what you need to do: 1. Write down the exact error message you're getting 2. Gather all your personal info (SSN, claim ID, etc.) 3. Try logging in from a different device or browser 4. If that doesn't work, wait at least 24 hours before trying again 5. If you're still locked out, you'll need to call them directly Pro tip: Call right when they open in the morning. You're more likely to get through.

am i the only 1 who thinks its crazy we have to jump thru all these hoops just to get our money? 🤔 the system is broken af

Have you tried reaching out to them on Twitter? Sometimes they respond faster there. Worth a shot!

Oof, direct deposit issues are the WORST. I had a similar problem last year. Turns out my bank account number was off by one digit. Double-check all your info if you get back in!

Not to be that guy, but have you tried turning it off and on again? 😂 Jk jk, but seriously, sometimes clearing your browser cache can help with login issues.

I swear, dealing with NYDOL is like playing whack-a-mole. Fix one problem, another pops up. Hang in there, OP. We're all in the same leaky boat 🚣‍♀️
