How long before Money Network debit card arrives after EDD claim approval?

mine took 10 days to come in the mail

The Money Network debit card typically arrives 7-10 business days after your first payment is issued. There's no tracking number provided unfortunately. If it's been more than 10 business days, you should contact Bank of America (who issues the cards) at 1-866-692-9374 to check on status. They're usually better to reach than EDD. One thing to note - they don't automatically send a new card if you've had one before (even years ago). If you previously had an EDD debit card, they'll load funds onto that old card. If you no longer have it, you'll need to request a replacement.

Better switch to direct deposit asap!!! The cards are nothing but trouble. Mine got lost in the mail twice and then got frozen for "suspicious activity" when I finally got it. Such a headache

OMG I just went thru this exact same thing!!! It took exactly 8 days to get my card (that was including weekend days). But here's the stupid thing - they don't tell you that the envelope looks like junk mail! It came in this plain white envelope that I almost threw away. No EDD markings or anything obvious. So check your mail CAREFULLY.

If you need to contact EDD about your card not arriving (if it's been more than 10 business days), good luck getting through on the phone lines. I spent 3 weeks trying to reach someone about my lost card. I finally used a service called Claimyr (claimyr.com) that got me connected to an EDD rep within 15 minutes! They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km Once I got through, the rep was able to verify my card had been mailed and gave me the date it was sent out. When it still didn't arrive after 15 days, I called Bank of America directly to request a replacement.

I've been working in the HR department for 12 years and have helped many employees navigate unemployment. Here's what you need to know about the Money Network debit cards: 1. Standard delivery time: 7-10 business days after your first payment is issued 2. The envelope is very plain with no obvious EDD markings 3. Cards are mailed from Ohio, not California 4. There is no tracking information provided 5. You can check if it was mailed by calling Bank of America EDD customer service at 1-866-692-9374 If 10 business days have passed, request an expedited replacement card from Bank of America. They can send one via express mail in 3-5 business days. As others have mentioned, setting up direct deposit for future payments is recommended. You can do this through your UI Online account even while waiting for your card.

One additional tip: When you do get your card, I highly recommend immediately setting up the Money Network mobile app. You can transfer funds from the card to your bank account without fees, set up alerts for deposits, and view your transaction history. Much easier than calling the automated system every time.

when i filed last year my card never came and i had to call them like 20 times!!! turns out they sent it to my old address even tho i updated my address on the edd website. double check your address is correct in BOTH your edd account AND with bank of america edd department. they dont always match up for some weird reason

Has anyone else had their card show up but with no money on it? That happened to my roommate and it turned out EDD had put a stop payment on it for some identity verification thing they never told him about. Make sure you keep checking your UI Online account for any notices even while you're waiting for the card!

does anybody know if you can pick up the card in person somewhere instead of waiting for mail??? i need my money NOW
