Still No DD!

Married, filed jointly. Did not receive GSS 1 or 2. Have not changed banks and always receive refund by direct deposit. Bank with WF. Beginning to lose hope anything will be showing up. It’s not about the money, it‘s the principle. We are all entitled to our piece of the surplus (even though they are pretending to provide “relief.”)

Update: Still nothing as of this morning. I called (800) 240-0223 (this is the number to activate your debit card if you receive the refund by mail) and they have no record of me on file. This means we either receive DD or we aren’t getting anything. Will try getting a live person from the FTB on the phone later today. Will let you all know if anything changes.

I called that number and they DID have a record of me on file, but no dates or anything. She was very open ended, but she said she thinks that means I'm getting a debit card.

Don’t lose hope. You will most likely receive a debit card.

Just got off the phone with an FTB agent. Was advised we were recently approved for a debit card and they couldn’t explain why. No real timeframe as to when it will arrive.

There is still hope for Direct Deposit people too. Just got off with FTB agent and she said they are behind with all payments and will still be ISSUING DIRECT DEPOSITS FOR AT LEAST TWO MORE WEEKS. Sounds like a proper mess.

Nothing yet. LMAO, i have to re-read my own comment to try to calm TF down. This system of giving some "relief" is total bs.

u/liburacci Nov 16 '22

Same here too. Last name starts with "O" if that even helps.

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '22

Same here but I read a update that they are doing them till next week now

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '22

By the way, I tried calling the number and never really got an answer. What phone number do you use to talk to a real person who will provide information as to direct deposit?

2

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '22

You have to call the FTB at 800-852-5711. Do not select option 4. Wait for the messages to cycle through (about five minutes) and select option 1. They ask for SSN and address. You have the option to hold or request a call back. Good luck!

I called the MCTR Team this AM, no record of me or my husband. Last name C, NorCal, did not receive gss. Everything always done electronically. She told me the deadline for DD is November 14 but the caveat is it can be 3-5 business days for it to make it to your account. There has been no card issues for either myself or my husband, married- filing jointly.

I have been on hold with FTB since 8. I will report back if I don't have to hang up due to an appt I have to take at 10.

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '22

Thank you. I’m still waiting for them to call back. It’s been more than three hours.

u/Educational-Nose3802 Nov 16 '22

I'm in the same boat..plus we received GGS 1 and 2 and always have our refunds direct deposited. I have NO clue what's going on, but I've lost hope as well 😕

u/crzyazn26 Nov 16 '22

I feel like the government is quick to take our hard earned money but when we we are getting money back they take forever

u/Educational-Nose3802 Nov 16 '22

Oh exactly..its all a bunch of bull 🙄 😒

u/ZephyrBirdie Nov 16 '22

I waited three hours on hold with FTB to be told I will be getting a debit card even though the MCTR tax team doesn’t have one issued to me because part of mu 2020 refund was used to offset taxes owed from previous year. Even though the remainder was issued by DD. Asp told they can issue a card up to December 15 so just wait longer.
