New York Unemployment: No contact after 6 weeks - no phone call or mail

Been calling that number for 3 weeks straight and nothing. Always get the automated message saying high call volume then it hangs up on me 🤮 this system is completely broken

I finally got through using claimyr.com - its this service that calls and waits on hold for you then connects you when theres an agent. costs $20 but worked for me after trying for weeks. heres a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

Listen up fam, here's what worked for me after being stuck for 2 months: 1. Make sure your online account is fully completed with ALL info 2. Upload any requested docs asap 3. Check your spam folder daily 4. Use claimyr.com to get through on the phone (seriously worth the $20) 5. Have all your employment info ready when you talk to them Don't give up, the system sucks but you'll get through eventually 💯
