PA UC payment showing 5/11 pay date - when will it hit my Money Network card?

The Money Network card typically gets funded within 1-2 business days after the pay date shows in the system. If your pay date is Thursday 5/11, you'll most likely have the funds available either Thursday evening or Friday morning. The money should definitely be there by Friday afternoon at the latest. It's much faster than the old paper checks!

mine always comes at midnight the day it says. so if ur pay date is 5/11 check at midnight and it should be there. thats how its been for me for almost a year now

The official UC guideline is that Money Network card deposits are processed within 1-2 business days after the payment date in the system. However, I've noticed that most deposits hit between 12am-2am on the payment date itself. If your payment date is 5/11, check first thing Thursday morning. You can also download the Money Network app to get notifications when money is deposited. The app also lets you check your balance and transaction history without calling the automated line.

congrats on getting your claim approved! took me FOREVER to get mine going after they flagged my account for no reason. stupid system.

If you're having trouble reaching someone at UC about your payment timing or any other issues with your claim, I'd recommend trying Claimyr. I was in a similar situation last month and couldn't get through to ask about a delayed payment. Claimyr got me connected to an actual UC agent in about 20 minutes instead of spending days trying to get through. You can see how it works at https://youtu.be/CEPETxZdo9E?si=WL1ZzVZWG3KiHrg2 and sign up at claimyr.com. Saved me so much frustration when I needed to fix issues with my Money Network card.

When I filed back in January, I found that there's quite a bit of variation in when money hits the Money Network card. My first payment took almost 2 full business days after the pay date, but subsequent payments were faster - usually showing up early morning on the pay date. Make sure you've activated your card properly. Also, did you set up the mobile app? It's called "Money Network Mobile App" in the app stores and gives push notifications when deposits hit.

The whole PA UC payment system is a JOKE! I've had pay dates that took 3 days to actually show up on my card!!! And when you call to ask why, nobody can give you a straight answer. They just say "it takes 1-2 business days" like robots. Meanwhile bills are due and we're supposed to just wait around wondering if we'll have money to pay them. I HATE how they keep us in the dark about EXACTLY when payments will post. It's our money and we deserve to know!

hey did ur money show up yet? curious if u got it at midnight

That's awesome that it came through right on time! For anyone else reading this thread, it's worth noting that the Money Network app notifications are super helpful - just make sure to enable push notifications when you set it up. Also, if you're ever worried about timing in the future, you can usually check your pending deposits in the app a day or two before the pay date, which gives you a better idea of when to expect the funds. Glad everything worked out for you with your bills!

Glad to see your payment came through on time! For future reference, I've found that Money Network deposits usually hit between midnight and 2am on the pay date, but there can be occasional delays during high-volume periods (like holidays or when lots of claims get processed at once). One tip - if you ever need to access your money before the card deposit hits, you can sometimes do a balance transfer to your personal bank account through the Money Network app, though there might be a small fee. The consistency does get better once you're in the regular payment cycle!

This thread is super helpful! I'm in a similar situation - just got approved for UC benefits and waiting on my first payment to the Money Network card. Based on everyone's experiences here, it sounds like the midnight-2am window is pretty reliable for most people. Really appreciate all the detailed info about the app notifications and the pending deposits feature - definitely going to set that up right away. It's reassuring to hear that while there can be some variation in timing, the system generally works as advertised. Thanks for sharing your experience and glad your payment came through on time!
