SNAP EBT down? Status of problems

When reports arrive in regard to SNAP EBT going down or experiencing problems today, then this will impact thousands in need of using the government scheme that helps people using this food stamp coupon replacement program.

Officially named the “Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Electronic Benefit Transfer”, thousands rely on using the card system to pay in different stores like a debit or credit card. This is why issues will be felt across the country when the service is not working.

    In Nashville, Ga. Was supposed to get my benefits on July 17th, and still nothing. No one at the office has any answers and my case worker has shut off her phone

  • Mrs Harris

    After reading the comments. Someone at DFS should have sum idea what’s going on by now it’s 23days and people are waiting. Knowing this problem existed they should have mailed out vouchers or a letter letting us know what’s going on. No blame just would like to know what the problem is and when if ever will the deposits be made. Have a blessed day all.

  • Nicole Chapman

    Hey I’m in Georgia and I was supposed to receive my food stamps/ SNAP benefits today I’m currently homeless and out of food and no one is willing to help I have so little right now I’m sitting at the local library trying to find a solution. If you could help please help let me know

    • As If

      Nicole, I am so sorry. I was where you are a few months ago, and I know how it all feels. I can’t say or do a thing to help you, but I didn’t want to ignore you like everyone does people who are in your situation. I don’t know anything about Georgia, but surely they have soup kitchens, or food pantries where you can get an emergency hot meal. Stay at the library as much as you can, and use their wifi to research any and every option available to homeless people in your state. Camp out on your social services doorstep until they help you find a solution. I know it’s humiliating, but your safety has to come first. And please…keep us informed. I don’t know you, but that doesn’t mean I don’t care about your situation.

  • Tabitha Bostic

    2 weeks later & I still haven’t received my benefits. supposed to get them the 4th & still nothing. Havent been able to get in touch with my caseworker left a voicemail every single day & still no call back. account is still active but 2 weeks past due & still nothing at all its driving me insane!!!

  • Eliza Lyme

    This is the second month without snap. I have seen the social worker twice and it is very embarrassing to ask him why I haven’t gotten my food stamps. I don’t get mad at all if they don’t help me I’m the mother and I have to provide for my kids. The problem is that staffing agencies are killing everything. Companies just give you jobs of 4 hours a day ,or 3 days, then they let you go! this is very depressing. I don’t know what to do!!

  • Kym Deaton

    Has anyone tried today, June 15? As of yesterday mine wouldn’t work at kroger in Louisville KY

  • Knot UrToys

    Normally receive mine on the 5th of each month. Balance is showing the remainder of last months, verified with the local office yesterday that payment was submitted, but website/number show no deposit for June 2017. Could be related to multiple offices across the state being closed, or funding, but either way, it is a major issue. Email, call, and tweet your state representatives, make them aware of the issue!

  • Alex Griffin

    I was supposed to have gotten my ebt benefits today April 15.This is ridiculous and there is no way to contact the office with this being Saturday.

  • ramo701

    I’m in Illinois and i was supposed to get mine on the 10th. Just like everyone else i had no notification of cancelation and when i call the automated hotline it does not say that i have a future deposit pending. I talked to someone on the phone from that hotline and they say they have no information. You would think if you call the number on the back of the card and speak with someone that they should have at least a little info.

    • Jenna Bates

      Have you received them yet??

  • TheInsanity BarsOfKain

    Im in Ohio and i normally recieve mine every month today i call akd it doesnt even tell me my pending deposit so im like wtf man how am i to feed my family if its not on there and I’m disabled like come on Trump

  • Chelsea Brereton

    I was supposed to receive mine today April 11th but my balance is $0 I’m in Georgia

  • Christopher Wilson

    I was supposed to have mine filled today in Lake County, California, but nothing is there. I notified Mendocino County HHS in January that I had moved to Lake County, but have heard nothing back from them, or from Lake County HHS, certainly no notification of benefits being cancelled, which I would think de rigeur before that were to happen. I was shocked and confused to have a shopping cart full of food, and my card declined for insufficient funds; I am old and substantially disabled, and shopping is not at all easy. If your benefits are cancelled, would it say that when one calls the main EBT number? All I get is “insufficient funds”, yet my benefits were supposed to go in this morning, the 10th. I am very worried about this.

  • Xavier James Robinson
