I spoke with my mother today and she finally received her stimulus money....in the form of a debit card. She does not own a debit card and has no idea what to do with this.
She spoke with her bank and they cannot help since they cannot accept it as a deposit into her account. I called the bank myself and they said the letter should have instructions on how to access the stimulus money and transfer it to an account at another bank. My mother is going to look into that, but technology is not her strength. She goes to the bank every week to get what she needs for cash and has two credit cards (one to use and one for emergencies). With quarantine, I can't go over and help her figure this out.
So now she has this card with a substantial amount of money on it and no way to access it that she is comfortable with.
She was expecting a check, she is very confused by this debit card!
