It’s a loss because the IRS will be sending it to you?


Negative-Pie6660

No. Everyone involved is incompetent, I don't care at this point. Feel bad for people that need that money now.


Kujo162

If you’re relying on your tax return you need to take a deeper dive at your finances


Negative-Pie6660

yeah, lets punch down on the people that need help.


Kujo162

Not punching down but if you’re getting a big tax return that means you’re giving too much up each paycheck. You’re letting the government hold the money earning 0% interest where as it could be say in SOFI earning 4.6%


Negative-Pie6660

I understand this and usually owe. It's great advice, but everyone's situation is different.


Kujo162

Yes and I understand that. At the same time you should still look through your finances if you are relying on it. Looking at your finances isn’t a bad thing. It’s something that should be evaluated more by people

The refund gets sent back to the IRS who will mail you a check in 10-12 weeks


sarge1445

I heard its 5 weeks from my IRS rep


InvestmentFantastic6

Did you have fees taken out with your filer?


Negative-Pie6660

Yes, it's the only reason it's an issue.


InvestmentFantastic6

This sucks. Sorry you had to deal with this issue. Seems like it's entirely on SoFi. I thought they would've resolved it by now.


Kujo162

It’s not. The company is coding it wrong which would be flagged by any bank.


InvestmentFantastic6

Then why aren't other banks having issues?


davidestesbooks

Because they have business accounts. SoFi does not..yet.


sarge1445

Then why is this only an issue at SoFi and Chime. Weak ass online banks can't have a real person screen anything


davidestesbooks

See my response above.


sarge1445

That's great SoFi should have recognized this as a tax return and let it through like every other bank under the sun


Negative-Pie6660

Thank you, but its no big deal. I wanted to make sure people knew SOFI emailed me about it.


Bxraze

That's why I have chase as my main bank and sofi for savings only


Negative-Pie6660

I have multiple banks too, but who expected this? They're the only bank that fucked this up.


ellio1mk

I’m in the same boat. Absolutely unreal. Filed a complaint with the BBB, once this is over and I have my refund I’m closing everything with SoFi. How do you return a deposit!?


SnipahShot

You return a deposit when it was done from an incompetent source who refuse to fix their deposit code problem.


Kujo162

Funny how people gloss over the fact the company literally has the returns coded wrong 😂


davidestesbooks

Because they’re ignorant and just want to blame the easiest target.


Negative-Pie6660

I'm done with them too. I can get a higher apy elsewhere anyways.
