Money Network card to BOA transfer showing 'invalid account status' - need urgent help!

same thing hapned to me last month!! so annoying, right? check if ur BOA acct is a joint acct, they dont let u transfer to joint accts for some reason

I had this EXACT problem in January!!! The Money Network card is honestly THE WORST way to distribute benefits I've ever seen. After HOURS of frustration, I finally figured out the problem was that I had my account set up for overdraft protection. Apparently Money Network's system flags accounts with certain features as 'invalid' 🙄 Try calling BOA first and ask them to temporarily remove overdraft protection, THEN try the transfer again. Worked for me!

Not to hijack ur thread but im dealing with the SAME problem except with Chase! this whole EDD payment system is so broken. i ended up just withdrawing cash from ATMs (u get 2 free withdrawals per month) and depositing it manually. not ideal but it worked when i was desperate

Have you tried contacting EDD directly about this? Sometimes the Money Network card issues need to be addressed by EDD rather than Bank of America or Money Network customer service. I went through something similar with Wells Fargo last year. I was going CRAZY trying to get through to someone at EDD. After days of busy signals, I found this service called Claimyr that got me through to an EDD rep in about 20 minutes. They bypass the phone maze somehow. Saved me from waiting weeks to resolve my card issue. Their site is claimyr.com and they have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/JmuwXR7HA10?si=TSwYbu_GOwYzt9km Might be worth trying if you keep getting disconnected. The EDD rep I spoke with was able to fix something on their end that was blocking my transfers.

Let me try to clear up some of the confusion here. This 'invalid account status' error typically occurs for a few specific reasons when transferring from Money Network to Bank of America accounts: 1. If your BOA account has any restrictions or special status (fraud alerts, overdraft protection, recent security holds) 2. If there's a name mismatch between your EDD claim and your bank account (even minor differences like having a middle initial on one but not the other) 3. If you've exceeded transfer limits (either Money Network's limits or your bank's incoming transfer limits) 4. If your BOA account is newer than 90 days (some Money Network security protocols flag newer accounts) The fastest resolution is usually to: 1. Call BOA to verify there are no restrictions on your account 2. Ensure your name matches exactly between systems 3. Try a smaller test transfer amount first (like $10) If none of that works, calling EDD directly is your best bet as they can reset things on their end. Money Network customer service often doesn't have the authority to fix these specific issues.

Just coming back to say I hope one of these solutions worked for you! This whole EDD/Money Network system is honestly a nightmare. Took me almost 3 weeks to get my money the first time I had this issue. Now I just have my benefits direct deposited and avoid the card completely - SO much easier!
