I got locked out of the irs website for 24 hours because I logged in too much. Is there another way to see if my refund was sent? The expected date was today

The IRS also has an automated phone line which has the equivalent of Where's My Refund. I don't think you'd be locked out of this due to the website.

1-800-829-1040

Press Option 1 several times to enter your Social Security/ ITIN number, filing status, and refund amount on the 1040(A)(EZ)

If it says today, that usually means within 2 days in the bank. You can call the bank to see if they have record of it being in process.

IRS recommends that you probe no more than once per day. The number is only updated once per day so there is no point to banging on the website.
Evidently, you upset them.

I got locked out from the website every 24 hrs
