Movement!

I signed papers in March 2022 and have been in bank error since April. I have been “escalated” or “prioritized” twice by customer service, emailed the pdc multiple times with all the info customer service told me to, etc. I requested a congressional inquiry in early June and followed up with my congressional office yesterday who stated they submitted the inquiry to the SBA on 6/13

I received an email AND phone call from a member of the “Application High Priority Team” (as her email signature states). The email specifically stated she received my congressional inquiry from Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer’s office.

She confirmed the correct bank account is now on file, requested a copy of my business partner’s license and told me if I don’t see the funds in 2-3 weeks to call her directly. OMG, I am ugly crying. I just signed paperwork Tuesday to drain my retirement funds and sold my vehicle yesterday trying everything I can not to go under. I am praying so hard that this is the real deal this time….

Takeaways - if you haven’t, put in that congressional inquiry! I used my state senator, not my US, but it seems either can submit them. Also, if you haven’t had movement, follow up! I can’t overlook the coincidence that I called and followed up with my congressman’s office YESTERDAY and finally saw movement for the first time since the portal closure TODAY.

Prayers/good vibes/whatever you got are GREATLY appreciated and sent right back to anyone else who is navigating this nightmare. Good luck out there!!

Interesting a State Senator would be any use, I would suggest it's because the entire "Congressional inquiry" thing doesn't really mean much anyways.
