New York Unemployment making me reapply but website keeps redirecting me to portal

Been claiming benefits for 2 months but now unemployment says I need to file a new claim. Every time I try to start a new application it redirects me back to my portal page. Called multiple times but can't get through to anyone. Getting really frustrated with the system.

same thing happened to me last week! its because your benefit year ended, you gotta file a new claim even if you still have money left in ur account. super annoying fr 🙄

I found a way to actually get someone on the phone! Used this service called claimyr.com - they dial through the phone menu and wait on hold, then call you when they get an agent. Costs $20 but totally worth it after trying for weeks. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

NY unemployment system is completely broken rn. Try calling right when they open at 8am, thats usually the best time to get through

Here's what you need to do (worked for me and others): First, try logging out completely and clearing your browser cache/cookies. If that doesn't work, use a different browser (Edge seems to work best with their system). If you're still stuck, you NEED to talk to a rep. Best options: 1. Use claimyr.com to get through the phone system (costs $20 but works) 2. Try calling at exactly 8:00 AM 3. Use their message portal and request a callback Don't give up - keep documenting everything. These redirect issues usually mean there's a flag on your account that only a rep can clear. Good luck! 👊
