Due to privacy concerns, I’ve been informed that SBTPG will not be direct depositing funds for the next few weeks (at the least).
Instead they will be issuing paper checks. So just a heads up to keep an eye out for that.
This may add an extra week or two to your refund’s arrival time. A bummer, yes, but not too bad.

I had a ddd of 2/5 and was caught up in the technical glitch like so many others so my refund was delayed. Well as of early this morning my deposit hit my bank account. Not sure if the paper check thing is real, maybe only affecting a small number of people but I can definitely say there are those who got their direct deposits this morning. Good luck everyone!

So, because I don’t have anything else going on today, I called Turbo Tax, they have no info on any such directive from SBTPG, they warm transferred me to SBTPG, who knew they could do that, while SBTPG admits they have had some software issues with dispersing funds, there is in no way shape or form, a data breach of this magnitude. They are still having some software issues, it is not a hack, and refunds may, at most, be delayed 24-48 hours. They are aware of the major batches of refunds set to be released in the next 10-14 days and are confident that the software issues will be resolved before the 15th.

@Target I’m suspicious of the OP, how in the world would there not be a major news story about this Data Breach? SBTPG is a major clearinghouse for many banks in the U.S. Turbo Tax is not the only tax prep company that uses them HR Block does also. Tax Prep companies would certainly be advising their users if there was a Data Breach like this, Federal Law also demands that persons who had their Data compromised be informed. There are literally MILLIONS of people who go through SBTPG for one reason or another, Refund Advance, Tax Prep fees, Green Dot Debit, ect. So, I will verify, however, I am not at all believing this. Everyone take a deep breath, have a drink, it will most likely be ok.

@kim, yes, turbo tax uses this clearinghouse, however, I wouldn’t get too upset. There is no way that they would actually do this. They make millions on their products and services at this kind of thing would put them straight out of business. I have seen no announcements, nothing on there website, and, if they truly had a data breach of this magnitude, it would be all over the news. Some people have nothing better to do than stir the pot. I am currently awaiting a call back from Turbo Tax, as I have been unable to get a love person on the phone from SBTPG. Still, I wouldn’t worry overly much about this.

The OP is bogus, as is their “friend” Singlesnydee. SBTGP has been collecting fees from e-filed taxes for many years and though some years have hiccups, they are not going to mail a paper check to all of their users.

Listen Karen, lets see a screenshot of your “info”. I’ve been around this forum long enough to see a massive load of bullshit and baiting. Provide proof of your claim or else it is invalid.
