Well it happened to me. Today marks 3 weeks since the IRS "released" my refund so I gave them a call yesterday since there's been no Update on WMR. The lady I spoke with said the previous person I talked to "didn't have the authority" to release my refund so she would be sending a request to the review department to let them know they are over their time limit and they need to release the refund which could take another 60 freaking days. So now, if they take the full 60 days before I receive it, that would mean the IRS has literally held my refund hostage for 6 freaking months. Never in my life have I seen such incompetence. Complete bs.
