This morning when trying to check my turbo debit card on the app the app is having issues it won’t pull up to let me log in then I try online it freezes before I can even log in and then when I call the call is silent and don’t ring at all. It’s very frustrating when all I’m trying to do is check my balance

Same.  And I cannot get any help with it from the turbo tax site either.  I’m so mad right now.

Issue is global and hopefully not a hack/crack. As the IRS began transmitting DD this week and it was also mentioned several weeks ago that this would be the method, therefore allowing time for the hackers to prepare. Hopefully it's just a matter of unprecedented traffic on their networks and they are working on a quick resolution.  It it amazing to have the phones and networks down though. But i'm sure they do not get 50+ million transactions/request at any given point either. I'll keep checking throughout the day(s). A communication from them would be nice though. We'll probably see the headlines on the local news real soon.


UPDATE: Just saw the headline on NBC referring to the IRS confirming issues with their Payment site due to the somehow unexpected volume. I'm sure it was a matter of lack of planning. They surely should've ramped up their networks for this. Nevertheless that's the latest I've found. I suspect that it will progressively get better as they are ramping up in real time now.

Same! When I check IRS it shows they deposited my check in a bank acct# ending with my last 4 SSN. It is very frustrating!!

I've tried since yesterday, and i'm about ready to pull my hair out!  I know this is life, but let's face it, we've all had some pretty big stress going on since this virus and this is just one more frustration.  Turbo, please fix this soon!

The Turbo Card app/site is experiencing high volumes today due to stimulus payments being funded. We know everyone is anxious to get their stimulus money and we appreciate your patience. If you are experiencing any issues please wait a bit and try again.
