That's the standard refund procesing fee that is charged and that was displayed and you agreed to at least 3 times before your return could be filed. That processing fee has always been there and you've always had the power to pay with a credit or debit card first instead of CHOOSING to agree to pay that fee. That's on you, buddy. Sorry.
And if there were dealys, it was likely due to some bad information. There is zero chance it took 9 days if all of the information was correct as it's a fully automated process. EIther you didn't understand the IRS message or there was an issue at the receving bank. Some banks hold their customer's deposits for a set amount of time before crediting them, and that is more likely the culprit.
