No text after determination letter mailed - Denied NY unemployment?

I found a way to solve unemployment claim determination delays, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjBo8HsJjF4

Ugh, the waiting game is the worst. I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet. Sometimes the system is slow AF and texts can be delayed. Give it a few more days before you start panicking.

I found a method to 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 about it: https://youtu.be/Rdqa1gKtxuE

In my experience, no news is good news with NY unemployment. If you were denied, they usually send that info pretty quick. Keep your chin up!

Have you checked your online account? Sometimes updates show up there before you get a text or letter.

The whole system is a joke. I've been waiting 3 months for a determination. NY unemployment needs to get their sh*t together fr 🤬

Here's what I've learned from my experience with NY unemployment: 1. Don't assume anything based on past experiences, even from the pandemic. The process changes constantly. 2. Texts and online updates can be inconsistent. Some people get them, others don't. 3. The determination letter is key. Wait for that before jumping to conclusions. 4. If you don't hear anything within 10 business days of them saying they mailed the letter, it's time to follow up. 5. Use every method to contact them - phone, email, and even social media. 6. If all else fails, consider using a service like claimyr.com to get through on the phone. It costs a bit, but can save you hours of frustration. 7. Document everything - dates of letters, calls, and any communication. 8. Be patient but persistent. The system is overloaded, but your claim is important. Hang in there, OP. It's a tough process, but you'll get through it!

lol welcome to the ny unemployment clown show 🤡 where the rules are made up and the timelines don't matter

Have you tried calling? I know its a pain, but sometimes you gotta be the squeaky wheel to get the grease.
