PA UC Money Network card payment delayed today - anyone else waiting?
Been refreshing my Money Network account all morning but still no UC payment showing up. Usually hits by 6 AM on Wednesdays but it's almost noon now. Anyone else still waiting for their PA unemployment deposit today? Getting anxious since rent is due Friday and I'm counting on this money. Is there a holiday or system issue I'm not aware of?

•Thanks for confirming I'm not the only one. Guess I'll keep waiting and checking. Just wish they'd post something if there's a system problem!

This happened last month too - there was a processing delay with the UC system transferring funds to Money Network. My deposit came through around 3PM instead of the morning. If you check your claim status on the PA UC portal, you can see if the payment was actually released yet.

•I've also noticed payments have been inconsistent lately. If you need to check your claim status and can't get through on the UC phone lines (I spent 3 hours trying last week), I recommend using Claimyr (claimyr.com). They got me connected to an actual PA UC agent in under 10 minutes who confirmed my payment was processed but just delayed in posting. They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2

Is everyone checking the actual Money Network card account or just the PA UC portal? Because sometimes the UC portal will show "payment issued" but it takes another day to actually show up on your card. I've learned to ALWAYS check both places before panicking!

•I'm checking the Money Network app directly. UC portal shows payment was issued yesterday (normal timing) but nothing in my actual account yet. I've never had this long of a delay before!

This is why I switched to direct deposit instead of the Money Network card. I was having too many issues with delayed payments and random holds. With direct deposit, it's much more consistent - funds always hit my bank account Tuesday night/Wednesday morning without fail. You might want to consider switching if the card keeps giving you trouble.

•HOW do you switch to direct deposit?? I've been stuck with this stupid card for months and HATE IT! They charge fees for everything and customer service is USELESS when there's a problem. I've asked about direct deposit twice but got nowhere

•Log into your PA UC dashboard, go to "View and Maintain Account Information," then select "Payment Information" and "Modify." You'll be able to enter your bank routing and account numbers there. The change takes effect for your next payment cycle. Make sure your bank info is 100% accurate or it will cause delays.

•FINALLY got mine too! Just posted at 2:45. What a relief. Wish they'd communicate better when there are delays though.
