New York Unemployment: Called Governor's office, got through to DOL in 5 minutes!
Finally got through to unemployment after weeks of trying! Called the governor's office, asked to be transferred to DOL, and within 5 minutes I was talking to someone who fixed my claim. My benefits should start coming now. Thanks to everyone here who suggested this method!

•100% works! Just be polite when you call and explain your situation. The governors staff are really helpful

Another option is using claimyr.com - they'll wait on hold and call you when they get an agent. Costs $20 but saved me hours of hold time. Here's a video explaining how it works: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE
