    I have spent several hours each day of the past four weeks trying to file a claim for UI benefits since my employer is on " A TEMPORARY SHUTDOWN", USING THE DOL'S TELEPHONE numbers provided for this purpose. I have lost three weeks of benefits SIMPLY BECAUSE I CANNOT GET THROUGH TO A HUMAN BEING.

    This is my second ongoing complaint against the New York State Department of Labor, EWF. I am unable to respond for their request for more information regarding my application for the NYSDOL EWF. Their phone number 877-393-4697 has a faulty auto-bot that does not connect one with a representative, but makes a phone appointment, and then no one calls back and one waits for hours for someone to call back, and they do not. I also had on my application that email is the best contact for me, but they leave a voicemail on my cell phone instead. I feel that the NYS DOL EWF is a scam because even their email does not work: (Your message to EWF@labor.ny.gov has been blocked. See technical details below for more information. The response from the remote server was:
    550 5.4.1 Recipient address rejected: Access denied. AS(201806281) [DM3GCC02FT009.eop-gcc02.prod.protection.outlook.com]).
    I saw on the news about a week ago, that more pandemic funding is going to the South instead of to places like New York because New York does not really distribute the money.
