If I could give 10 stars I would
If I could give 10 stars I would If I could give 10 stars I would Such an amazing service so needed during the times when EDD almost never picks up Claimyr gets me on the phone with EDD every time without fail faster. A much needed service without Claimyr I would have never received the payment I needed to support me during my postpartum recovery. Thank you so much Claimyr!
Really made a difference
Really made a difference, save me time and energy from going to a local office for making the call.
Worth not wasting your time calling for hours.
Was a bit nervous or untrusting at first, but my calls went thru. First time the wait was a bit long but their customer chat line on their page was helpful and put me at ease that I would receive my call. Today my call dropped because of EDD and Claimyr heard my concern on the same chat and another call was made within the hour.
An incredibly helpful service
An incredibly helpful service! Got me connected to a CA EDD agent without major hassle (outside of EDD's agents dropping calls – which Claimyr has free protection for). If you need to file a new claim and can't do it online, pay the $ to Claimyr to get the process started. Absolutely worth it!
Consistent,frustration free, quality Service.
Used this service a couple times now. Before I'd call 200 times in less than a weak frustrated as can be. But using claimyr with a couple hours of waiting i was on the line with an representative or on hold. Dropped a couple times but each reconnected not long after and was mission accomplished, thanks to Claimyr.
IT WORKS!! Not a scam!
I tried for weeks to get thru to EDD PFL program with no luck. I gave this a try thinking it may be a scam. OMG! It worked and They got thru within an hour and my claim is going to finally get paid!! I upgraded to the $60 call. Best $60 spent!

One suggestion that really helped me - contact ur bank and put a verbal password on ur account that's NOT tied to security questions someone might know. Also check if any address change requests have been submitted for any of ur accounts.

you can contact NY AG's office too - they have a specific division for unemployment fraud now because it got so bad. https://ag.ny.gov/consumer-frauds/Filing-a-Consumer-Complaint

Sounds like u did exactly the right thing! My sister had a similar issue and the state senator route worked. Took about 8 days for her to get a call. the regular unemployment phone number is basically useless these days.
Theres actually a Facebook group called "Help with New York unemployment" with like 50,000 people in it. Lots of success stories from people who went through their reps. You should check it out while waiting.

Whatever you do, ACT FAST!!! The longer these fraudsters collect benefits in your name, the harder it is to fix. Learned this the hard way when someone used my info last year.
Anyone else notice how much identity theft has increased for unemployment specifically? Its gotta be an inside job or a major data breach in the system. Too many people dealing with this same exact issue.
It's because they relaxed all the verification requirements during covid and never tightened them back up properly. Perfect storm for scammers.
I work in IT security and you'd be SHOCKED how bad government systems are protected. Like 1990s level security for some of them.

Same issue. Filed in March, payments stopped in April with no explanation. Called 200+ times. Finally found success with Claimyr last week - they got me connected to an agent who fixed my account in minutes. Whatever they're doing to get through the phone system works. claimyr.com saved me 💯

•It's not a scam if that's what you're asking. They just have a system that calls unemployment constantly until they get through, then they call you and connect you with the agent. You still talk directly to unemployment to fix your issue.
