"They act like they haven't gotten it..."

What does that mean?   You said some "they" told you it was delayed.  Was that the IRS?  i.e., did you phone and speak to an IRS customer agent?

What is the exact wording at the IRS "Where's My Refund" tool?  And is there any additional message there?

https://www.irs.gov/wheres-my-refund

Here are some tips when using that IRS tool:

• Be sure you enter the correct tax year, SSN, and filing status.
• Be sure you are using only the Federal refund amount.   Do not include any state refund or any total refund or net refund (Fed and State) that TurboTax may have provided on a summary screen.  
• Look at your actual Federal return to get the Federal refund amount to use in the tool, i.e., your Form 1040, Line 35a.

if you actually spoke to an agent and he said it's delayed there is not much you can do but wait. there are numerous reasons why this could happen and the agent you spoke to may not know the reason.
