TWC payment delay? Check not received today despite 9th process date

Anyone else missing their TWC payment today? My payment request was processed on the 9th according to my account, and I ALWAYS get my direct deposit on Thursday like clockwork. Called the Tele-Serv number and it says 'payment processed' but nothing in my bank account yet. Getting kinda worried since rent is due next week and I'm cutting it close. Is TWC running behind on payments this week or should I be concerned something's wrong with my claim?

Same here!! Process date was the 9th and still no deposit. This is my 3rd payment request and the previous 2 always hit my account Thursday morning by 10am.

Ok at least I'm not the only one. Did you try calling TWC to ask what's going on?

Check your correspondence inbox on the TWC portal. Sometimes they hold payments if there's an issue they need to resolve. If nothing's there, it could just be a banking delay - especially if it's falling near a holiday weekend. Mine was also processed on the 9th but I have Chase and it always takes an extra day sometimes.

Thanks, just checked my correspondence and there's nothing new there. I'm with Wells Fargo and never had delays before, but maybe you're right about banking issues.

this happens EVERY FEW MONTHS when TWC has a system update!!!! they never notify anyone and then everyone panics. your money will probably show up tomorrow or Monday. they did this back in January too and I freaked out for nothing

Actually, TWC does usually announce planned system maintenance on their website and social media. I recommend following their Twitter account for updates on these kinds of issues. They posted yesterday about a payment processing delay affecting some claims processed on the 9th.

If you need to speak with someone at TWC to confirm your payment status, I'd recommend using Claimyr (claimyr.com). I was in a similar situation last month and couldn't get through on the phones for days. Used their service and got connected to a TWC agent in about 15 minutes who confirmed my payment was just delayed in processing. There's a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U?si=kNxmh025COIlIzKh The agent told me sometimes there are processing delays if there's a high volume of claims or if their system is undergoing updates. As long as your payment status shows 'processed' in the system, you should receive it, just with a slight delay.

I tried calling 30+ times yesterday and couldn't get through. Does this claimyr thing actually work? Seems weird to use a third party just to make a phone call.

Yes, it actually works. I was skeptical too, but when you've been trying to call for days with no luck, it's worth it. They basically keep dialing for you and then connect you once they get through. The TWC agent I spoke with told me about the delay and confirmed my payment was coming, which gave me peace of mind.

Just got my deposit about an hour ago! Check your accounts again - might be coming through now. Apparently there WAS a processing delay according to the TWC rep I finally reached. She said something about a system update that affected direct deposits for claims processed on the 9th, but they should all be completed by end of day.

OMG THANK YOU for updating! Just checked my account and the money is there now! What a relief. Guess I panicked for nothing. 😅

this reminds me of when i first started unemployment last year and my payments would sometimes come at random times. one time it came at like 11pm on a friday which was super weird! but now its pretty consistent every thursday morning except when theres holidays

For future reference, payment processing dates and actual deposit dates can sometimes vary by 1-3 business days. This is normal, especially during system updates or high-volume periods. If your TWC account shows the payment was processed, it's very rarely an issue with your claim - just a timing delay in the banking system. If you ever go more than 3 business days past the processing date without receiving your deposit, then you should contact TWC directly. Also, always make sure your correspondence inbox is empty of any eligibility questions that might hold up your payments.

Thanks for the detailed info. This is my first time experiencing a delay so I got worried. Good to know about the 3-day guideline.
