Is myBenefits (New York) down right now?

The site answers but blocks automated checks, so we rely on user reports and the official status. User reports are near the baseline.

myBenefits (New York) not working for me but the status is fine. What now?

If myBenefits (New York) is not working only for you, it is usually local: try a different browser or the app, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, and clear the cache. If lots of people report it here at the same time, the problem is on myBenefits (New York)'s side.

How does Damn is it down decide myBenefits (New York)'s status?

Three signals. Anonymous reports are compared with the usual volume for this hour. HTTP checks from Cloudflare have to fail twice in a row before we call our side down. When the vendor publishes a status JSON feed, that incident level is included too.

How often is myBenefits (New York) checked?

About every five minutes. The cron runs each minute and rotates through the catalog, so a full pass takes a few minutes.
