If you are awarded benefits you will receive the funds via the North Carolina DES Debit Card.
The card can be used anywhere that Visa is accepted and once the funds are depleted you will not be able to make purchases until next month’s payment is sent.
Users who fail to receive their payment should dial 1-888-737-0259 and raise hell (unless they are in the wrong).
