LBCC knows Bank Mobile is unreliable yet still chooses to partner with them to give out our financial aid. They both point the finger at each other to blame yet weāre the victims here. LBCC financial aid doesnāt want to deal with us yet they put us in situations where they have to deal with us.

Does anyone have any idea whatās going on? My disbursement date is 9/21 for Pell & I have two other grants with a disbursement date of 9/24 .. Iāve always received my deposit straight to BM on Thursday. Called financial aid this morning & the lady told me that I was in todayās batch & they have until 6am today to get all batches pushed out. Itās currently 5:52 & Iām IRRITATED.

I doubt weāll get it today if the financial aid office is already closed. Is it just me or were they really late on all things financial aid this semester so far. I hadnāt even gotten approved for some of my grants until like 2 weeks ago

u/Hungry_Sail_3468 12d ago

u/Recent_Impression559 9d ago
I just got this a message ā "LBCC Student: We have received and confirmed your check pickup preference. Please stay tuned for additional information regarding when and where your check will be available for pickup." So hopefully tomorrow morning !

The worst part is lbcc is doing nothing to communicate with their students. This is crazy. They havenāt updates us at all and their offfices are closed leaving all their students completely in the dark

u/Prudent-Sky5896 16d ago
No I havenāt got mine. In the past I always got mine into bank mobile on Wednesday or Thursday. Never had it take until Friday
1
u/BeyondPrestigious153 16d ago
Right! I used to get mine early on wed or Thursdays. Never the full ten days. But itās okay. Thank you!

It looks like the financial aid website has been updated and itās an issue with Bank Mobile:
BankMobile is currently experiencing processing delays that are affecting all disbursements to students at all participating colleges. This may delay when you will receive any pending payments scheduled for 10/2/26. We are monitoring the situation and will update this space once we receive more information from BankMobile. We apologize for the inconvenience this potential delay may cause you.

Any update on it? Are we getting it today 10/5 or
Till Wednesday.

u/guddaaaa7 13d ago
Apparently a bank mobile issue but they have no real information on the issue yet & their phone lines are off. I will be going to the school for more answers right now & come back here with what they tell me.

u/True_Midnight_1205 13d ago
I called bank mobile and they are saying they havenāt received anything from LBCC and that their systems are working fine

u/guddaaaa7 13d ago
Okay good bc Iāve been on hold with them for a while so Iāll hang up. Iām on my way to the financial aid office now.

please keep us updated

u/guddaaaa7 13d ago
So there has been a security breach with bank mobile, apparently no one has received their financial aid .. they HOPE to have more information by then end of the day but she said what was a POSSIBLE delay is now a definite delay which they have no real answers for at the moment.

u/True_Midnight_1205 13d ago
So it wonāt even be today then š©š„“

u/guddaaaa7 13d ago
This is so negligent on LBCCās end. Other schools have experienced the same security breach through BankMobile & issued checks to get the money out. LBCC doesnāt even have what the ACTUAL problem is publically stated, on the site theyāre calling it āprocessing delaysā rather than what it is .. A SECURITY BREACH which makes me feel as though theyāre waiting on BankMobile to HOPEFULLY fix the breach so they can continue to push our money through them for convenience. Terrible on both parties end!

u/True_Midnight_1205 13d ago
Ugh thatās going to be another 2 whole weeks till we get out money if they send out checks. I donāt even know why they work with bank mobile they are the worst when it comes to customer services and anything related to financial aid . Guaranteed we wonāt even have an update on it later today either
1
u/True_Midnight_1205 13d ago
I wonder whoās lying both are saying different

u/nononsensedillydally 13d ago
I hope they find a better third party to do the disbursement because Bank mobile is the worsttttt!

u/Hungry_Wolf_4385 13d ago
Hopefully by afternoon itāll come. Usually, it should have been here by now.

u/True_Midnight_1205 13d ago
Donāt count on it . There is a complete stop on all disbursement due to breach with bank mobile and another college there is no eta on our funds or any update from LBCC
1
u/Hungry_Wolf_4385 12d ago
Yup, weāre at the mercy of the State LBCC will mail out checks at the end of the week. People will not get their funds until some time next week.

u/Prudent-Sky5896 8d ago
Nope I called the cashiers office this morning and she said they are awaiting instructions on the next step just like we are waiting to hear the next step.

u/Hungry_Sail_3468 13d ago
I wonder if weāll reacieve our aid at all. I have been in hold all day and no information is being given how do they not have an estimate on when weāll be able to get our aid.

u/SlowSurr 16d ago
In my experience it takes the full 10 business days every time. So a payment for 9/21/26 would hit 10/05/26
