EDD payment approved yesterday but Money Network card shows $0 balance - payment missing

same thing happened to my roomate last month. EDD said paid but Money Network had nothing. took like 48 hours to actually hit his card. its stupid but just wait a lil longer

This happens more often than you'd think. There's a processing delay between when EDD marks a payment as 'sent' in their system and when Money Network actually receives and posts it to your card. A few things to check: 1. Log into UI Online and check your payment history - does it show 'paid' with today's date? 2. Check if this is your first payment - first payments sometimes take 24-48 hours longer 3. Make sure your card is properly activated (though you must have if you called and checked the balance) If the UI Online system shows 'paid' status, give it until tomorrow morning. Money Network typically processes overnight batches, so funds often appear early the next business day. If it doesn't show by tomorrow afternoon, then you should try calling EDD.

THE WHOLE SYSTEM IS A JOKE!!! I've had this happen THREE TIMES where EDD says paid but Money Network takes DAYS to actually show the $$. They claim its for "fraud prevention" but its really just them holding OUR MONEY to collect interest on it. The EDD phone reps just blame Money Network and Money Network blames EDD and meanwhile WE SUFFER!!! 😡

I work in banking (not with EDD) but electronic transfers between systems often have these delays. What the EDD automated system is telling you is that they've *initiated* the payment, not that it's actually been received by Money Network yet. The process usually works like this: 1. EDD approves payment in their system (marked as 'paid') 2. EDD initiates an ACH transfer to Money Network's master account 3. Money Network receives the batch file with all claimants' payment info 4. Money Network processes and posts funds to individual cards Steps 2-4 typically take 1-2 business days, sometimes longer if there are weekends or holidays involved. If your payment was approved yesterday, I'd expect it to appear by tomorrow or the day after at latest.

did u check the website to? sometimes the cards weird but the website shows the right info

If you need to reach EDD right away, I had really good results using Claimyr last month when I couldn't get through about my missing payment. It gets you through to an actual EDD agent quickly instead of calling 50+ times. Saved me so much stress. Their site is claimyr.com and you can see how it works here: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km In my case, there was a flag on my account causing the delay, and the EDD rep was able to fix it immediately once I got through. Worth it when you're dealing with rent issues!

Hey there! First payments can be tricky with the Money Network card. When I got my first payment, I actually had to wait about 72 hours after EDD showed it as paid before it appeared on my card. It's super stressful especially when you're counting on that money! One thing that might help - did you try checking your transaction history on the card rather than just the balance? Sometimes pending deposits will show there before they affect your available balance. Also, I've noticed payments that process late in the day sometimes don't appear until the next business day's evening batch processing. Hang in there! I bet it will show up tomorrow morning. But if it doesn't appear by noon tomorrow, definitely try getting through to EDD to make sure there's not a card activation issue or something else going on.

Just to follow up - did your payment show up this morning? Most first payments to Money Network cards appear within 48 hours of EDD showing 'paid' status.
