How to access EDD funds before Money Network card arrives? Got NOC but no card

same thing happened 2 me. took like 9 days to get my card after the NOC letter. they dont tell u when its coming just shows up randomly

Unfortunately, you can't access the funds until you have the Money Network card in hand. Once you've received your Notice of Computation, your card is typically mailed within 7-10 business days, though shipping times can vary. There are a few things you can do: 1. Call the Money Network customer service at 1-866-320-8699 to check if your card has been mailed and possibly request expedited shipping (though there may be a fee) 2. Once you do receive the card, you can set up a transfer to your personal bank account through the Money Network mobile app or website 3. For future payments, you can switch to direct deposit, but that won't help with funds already loaded to the card You're in that frustrating waiting period many of us have experienced. The system isn't designed for those who need immediate access to funds, unfortunately.

DONT WASTE UR TIME calling money network!! they wont do anything till the card is already in the mail system. EDD is TERRIBLE at communicating timelines. they don't care if we have bills!!!!

when i got my NOC i actually had 2 wait almost 3 weeks for the card!!! it was crazy. the notice came fast but then nothing. i kept checking my informed delivery from usps every day hoping to see it. drove me nuts

While you're waiting for your Money Network card, you should log into your UI Online account and set up direct deposit for future payments. This won't help with any money already issued to the card, but will ensure that future payments go directly to your bank account. To do this: 1. Log into UI Online 2. Go to 'Payment Methods' 3. Select 'Direct Deposit' 4. Enter your bank information Also, make sure your mailing address is correct in the system. I've seen cases where cards were delayed because they were sent to old addresses. If you've moved recently, double check this immediately.

I had a similar issue back in February. Got the NOC but waited FOREVER for the card. What helped me was using Claimyr to get through to an actual EDD rep. They connected me with someone who confirmed my card was ordered and gave me the exact date it was mailed. At least that gave me some peace of mind. You can check them out at claimyr.com - they have a video showing how it works at https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km. It was so much better than wasting days trying to get through on my own.

I work with EDD claims regularly. Here's what you need to know: 1. There's a gap between when EDD approves your claim (and sends the NOC) and when Bank of America/Money Network issues the card. This gap is typically 5-10 business days but can be longer. 2. Unfortunately, there is no way to access the funds before receiving the physical card. The Money Network card system is separate from the direct deposit system. 3. Once you receive your card, IMMEDIATELY set up direct deposit through UI Online for future payments. 4. If it's been more than 10 business days since your NOC, you should contact EDD directly as there might be an issue with your card issuance. The first card is always the longest wait. Once you switch to direct deposit, you'll get payments much faster.

When I was waiting for my card I remember calling the BofA EDD number like 5 times before I finally got someone who told me my card was already mailed but they couldn't tell me exactly when it would arrive. Then my mailman delivered it to the wrong address and that was a whole other nightmare! Have you checked if the payments are even showing as paid in your UI Online account? Sometimes they send the NOC but haven't actually processed payments yet.

UPDATE: I just managed to get through to EDD (kept calling back-to-back this morning) and they confirmed my first payment was processed yesterday! The representative said the card should arrive within 7-10 business days from payment processing. She also said I can set up direct deposit for future payments once I activate the card. I'm still frustrated about the wait, but at least now I know the money is coming. Thanks everyone for your help and advice!
