So the DUmmies have spent the last couple of weeks bitching and moaning about the Stimulus Check rollout. Now that it appears that the majority of funds have been disbursed or are scheduled for the very near future they have to complain about that.

WTF, IRS???!!!
I receive SSDI.
It is direct deposited into my bank account.
I just checked the "get my payment" app at IRS, and they said a check will be mailed to me!
There are other people living in this building, and the mail is not totally secure.
****ing GREAT.
So this DUmmies lives in a shithole where the neighbors steal each others mail. And it's the IRS's fault.

3. ,At least you'll get yours.
I called someone at the IRS several weeks ago and told them to stop direct depositing money to me. They were sending money to an old account I have at a credit union that I owe money to. The lady at the IRS told me that she had taken care of it, but my stimulus check was sent to that account and they kept all of it. I thought those checks were for us to buy necessities, not pay credit card bills. I'll spare you the sad story of why I haven't paid on my credit cards. Anyway, be glad they're mailing it to you and not giving it to your creditors.

This DUmmie might actually have to pay off a creditor that she's been dodging. And it's the IRS's fault.

4. Yes thank you
If I get to it before a thief does.
Reply to the thief who stole money from her credit union and is stunned that she may have to pay some of back.

9. Thanks. I already had that money spent, too.
Fortunately I have someone to help me. What must it be like for people who have nobody? I consider myself lucky in that respect. I really did need that money, but I've had worse things happen to me.

Already had that money spent on a new iPhone and booze. But the man stole my money. I'll just to have to make up the difference behind the dumpster at 7-11.

11. My mom's not got hers yet and I'm worried...
...it's going to her closed Bank of America account which had similar issues with a credit card she couldn't pay off. She got the last two stimulus checks direct deposited and this one still hasn't arrived (even though I got all of mine). I really hope that's not what happened because she desperately needs it. I just gave her half of mine just to hold her over.
It's unfortunate that parents need to teach their kids how to steal from the system, because the schools refuse to teach it.

17. I wish her luck.
It seems like the people who need it the most are the ones most likely to have it snatched out of their hands. Congress should have foreseen this problem and made it illegal for creditors to take that money. You're a good son, Josh. I know you're a comfort to your mother during these hard times.

Seems like Congress is providing financial babysitting service, since you apparently can't take care of yourself.
