EDD Money Network card delay - certified 2 weeks ago but still no card received

mine took 10-12 days to arive so might be there by the end of the week just keep an eye out for it. they dont send tracking # or anything

The Money Network debit cards typically take 7-10 business days to arrive after your first payment is approved. However, mail delays can sometimes extend this to 14 business days. It's important to note that this is business days, not calendar days, so weekends don't count. Your boyfriend should continue certifying as scheduled this Sunday even if the card hasn't arrived yet - the payments will accumulate on the card. If the card doesn't arrive by the end of next week (which would be around 15 business days), then I'd recommend contacting EDD to report a lost/undelivered card. The funds aren't lost even if the card never arrives, they'll just issue a replacement card.

my son went thru the EXACT same thing last month!!! he was worried too but turns out the card was sent from INDIANA not california so thats why it takes so long. he got his after 13 days so tell your bf to be patient!!!

Tell your boyfriend to check his UI Online account. He should see when the payment was processed and the status. If it shows "paid" but no card, it's probably just mail delays. If it shows "pending" then the card wouldn't have been sent yet because the payment hasn't processed. Also, he needs to certify this Sunday regardless! The money will be added to the card when it arrives.

I've been through this nightmare 3 times with EDD! The cards are ridiculous. After waiting 2 weeks for mine, I FINALLY called and they told me it was returned to them because of an "address error" - even though they had my correct address! If I hadn't called, I would have been waiting forever. If you're tired of waiting on hold for hours trying to reach EDD, try using Claimyr (claimyr.com). They get you through to an EDD agent quickly without the frustration. They have a video demo on https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km that shows how it works. Saved me when I was dealing with my card issues.

This is very common. Money Network cards take 10-14 business days on average for first-time recipients. A few important points: 1. Make sure the address on the UI Online account is 100% correct 2. The envelope is plain and doesn't say EDD - many people throw it away thinking it's junk mail 3. You can check if the card was mailed by calling Money Network directly at 1-866-692-9374 4. If it's been more than 14 business days, you can request a replacement Your boyfriend should absolutely continue certifying this Sunday. All payments will be loaded onto the card once it arrives.

my sister had to wait TWENTY ONE DAYS for her card!!! the system is broken!!! but she got all her money eventually just hang in there

UPDATE: The card finally arrived today!! It was in a super plain white envelope that didn't look official at all. Thanks everyone for the advice and reassurance!

Great news! Now that he has the card, make sure he activates it right away and sets up a PIN. Also, many people don't realize you can set up direct deposit from the Money Network card to a bank account. It's often faster than waiting for the card to load after each certification. Glad it all worked out!
