I feel your pain Kowalski, we're so helpless and at gcg's mercy. Cant wait until this damn thread is finally closed, ive been subbed for too long.

Fwiw I fit this criteria exactly obv.

Also payment waves makes me nervous. Just ****ing pay it all out already. As in just one more wave.

Oh gosh my bounced check is for $2000.06

Can't wait to get boned

FYP. Seriously, though that sucks ass if they don't include you in this next wave.

I'll take under August 31st for disputes between $2000.01 - $3,000.00

Good luck, us!

I'm gonna rage so hard if they do it like that and hav 10 more waves.

We're all suffering from some serious FUD: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_u...inty_and_doubt

I should not have brought up the NYTimes articles, I think I made it worse lol.

Before this extended break, they were paying out waves every month or so, so hopefully this will be resolved soon.

Called yesterday. Rep took my info. and looked at my claim. All she could tell me was that my claim has not been submitted for approval yet. She didn't have any other info. to provide.

Straight forward dispute of BF withdrawls >$500 and >20% of what GCG stated I had.

received the same e-mail reply that Kowalski posted. criteria a. less than 500.00 OR 500.01 -2K disputed AND less than 20%. Mine is more than 2K but less than 20% and it said at the botton that "yours in good standing will be paid shortly thereafter". My heart just sank a bit and I died even more inside.
'

Yeah a lot of people got the "shortly thereafter" line. I followed up asking for their definition of "shortly thereafter" and got no response lol.

Shortly thereafter=we hope you die first so we dont have to pay out.

I just want to put my fist through a wall every time I read this thread or think about the unfairness and helplessness of all this.

I got the same thing recently. I gave them an account history showing my withdrawal, but I didn't include the entire range of 4/1-4/15 so apparently it wasn't enough. Don't really see why the rest is necessary, but regardless, glad I checked. I sent an xls of the full date range, hopefully I don't get sent to the back of the line.

Eval,

Did you send them bank statements showing recent withdrawals to that bank account? I sent about 3 months prior to May showing all my withdrawals hitting that account, corresponding to the transaction sheet provided by FTP.

I included a few months, and it must have shown at least one successful cashout hitting my bank account, since I remember I got one two days before BF. So I guess the fact that that cashout wasn't in the history I provided (only the one I didn't get) was the reason they wanted more.

This is so frustrating. Let's make an announcement with certain info. Get bombarded by calls and emails and then change it without notice.

They haven't made any announcements since October... all the info we've received was through the grapevine via the PPA

I sent an email on Feb.17 and heard back this morning. Dispute= $2000. Balance= $12000. FWIW, I put "Urgent"in the subject line and described an urgent situation.

"Thank you for your email. Our records indicate that your petition will be included in the next round of payments which are expected to be issued by the end of March. Please be advised that as described on the administration website, prior to the payment of funds to a Petitioner, GCG will provide the Petitioner’s Social Security or other Taxpayer Identification Number to the Government, in order to offset and collect any qualifying debts currently listed in the Treasury Offset Program. So long as you do not have any outstanding debts with the government, your payment is expected to be in March. You will be notified via email once a determination has been made.

Gl to those still in the dark.

Ugh, I had 1,034$ in my account and disputed over 3k more....I mean im even somewhat regret doing that now. Im really shocked some of you would dispute 2k over a 12k balance tho, that just seems risky. GL everyone, this is some BULLLL****

Congrats! best wishes.

Just got a call back from the case specialist, could not drop my dispute a little to work within the requirements for the next round as they were already working on processing the order.

I pressed further on subsequent payments, all she said was something along the lines of, "we hope it won't take as long as the last round."

Got a call as I was perusing the thread.

My documentation sufficient.* The random, nonsensical $500/20% threshold was established by DOJ according to the GCG.

She says I will be in the next wave, but that there is no timeline for the next wave. Taking that with a serious grain of salt.

*What drives me crazy is that if they know my documentation is sufficient and I'm all set to go then what's the holdup? Does this indicate that it's all on the DOJ?

Got a reply today:

Dear Evan,

Thank you for your email. We will add the document you have attached to your petition. Based on the preliminary review of your petition it is evident that you have adequately supported your dispute.

This first distribution to disputing petitioners is only for disputing petitioners meeting one of the following established criteria: either (i) a dispute of $500 or less, or (ii) a dispute between $500.01 and $2,000, if the difference between the FTP Account Balance and the disputed amount is 20% or less. Disputing petitions that do not meet these criteria are still under review and, if properly documented, will be paid in subsequent payment waves. We anticipate subsequent distributions to disputing petitioners in good standing (such as yourself) will occur shortly thereafter.

What was your disputed amount?

Yeah, they said the same thing to me. That could easily be a party line though.

PPA. Can you help us put some pressure on to speed this up. This pace of payments is just silly at this point.
