Well I won't get any, but it's all Monopoly money anyway. If a bank holds that free 'money' for awhile who gives a schit?

They are printing checks so fast that they can't print that monopoly money fast enough to keep up with demand. Gotta give 'em some time to play catch up before folks start cashing too many checks too soon.

So it's announced to be there on 3/17, government moved it to the banks so it's ready, and people are complaining that their free money isn't here early?
Shocking that people would complain about that, isn't it?

Making money off flipping short term schit in the markets.
To think otherwise is naive ..........

I object to the premise of "somebody's holding MY money."
It ain't your money. People are getting damned entitled.
"Where's my check???" GMAFB. Actually,it is your money.Do you think the Government has any money of it own? It's not my money. It's "our" money. And a lot of it is going to people who haven't been hurt by the shutdowns. I would be one of those along with millions of other retirees. Social Security has never quit, my pension has never failed to arrive, and my IRA is paying out just fine. Yet, come Wed, the stimulus should be in my account along with all of those who were laid off. HOWEVER, the stimulus is intended to stimulate. We have some purchase we want to make which will dump the money back into the economy. I don't have to pay income tax on it, but those who I buy from will along with all of the workers to make and sell what we buy. Millions of us retirees will be buying stuff which puts someone to work up the line. The theory of the stimulus could be a good thing in getting people back to work if it wasn't mostly squandered on give-a-ways, handouts to foreigners, and congressional kickbacks. As it is, it's a terrible thing.
“In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” ― George Orwell
It's not over when you lose. It's over when you quit.

An ACH (automated clearing house) transaction takes a couple of days to process, and in those days can be “called back”. This is how payroll direct deposits work and this is how these govt transactions work.
A bank can’t give access because the funds could still be pulled back by the originator until... you guessed it, the 17th.
All that being set aside, banks are overloaded with cash after all the money the govt printed over the past year and the state of the economy being such that not a ton of commercial lending is going on. My Bank doesn’t need money AT ALL to the extent we’re letting funds run off... if CDs come due and someone can get a better rate that’s fine we them go.
As much as I hate banks that are “too big to fail” this is, as per the usual, much ado about nothing.

Bob H in NH: I agree with your indignation at the gimmee, gimmee, gimmee attitude of many folks but I disagree with your contention that this money is FREE! It ain't. It's gonna be paid back plus the interest going to the chi-coms and the main beneficiaries of this gigantic fraud are the states of kalifornicationkopia, new york, and the other demonrat schithole illinois! That is what burns me up. This whole thing is sad. America is spiraling downward faster and faster every year. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

I disagree. The stimulus isn’t intended to stimulate, any more than the affordable care act was intended to make healthcare more affordable. The COVID Relief Package was meant as camouflage for political kick-backs with just enough crumbs allowed to fall to the ground for the media to be able to keep low information idiots quiet. Reading a bio of Calvin Coolidge, the last real Big-C Conservative in the White House who said, “It is much more important to kill bad bills than to pass good ones.” So right!
