What if I haven’t received a payment as expected?

Customer who have not received a Pandemic Unemployment Payment as expected on Tuesday March 31st
The Department has processed all applications received for the emergency Covid-19 Pandemic Payment received until close of business on Thursday 26th March. Payments for over 283,000 customer have been made into customers bank accounts today Tuesday 31 March 2020.

If you have submitted an application for this emergency payment and have not received a payment into your bank account on Tuesday 31 March, it is because either

1. Your application did not qualify for a Covid-19 Pandemic Unemployment Payment; or

2. The details you submitted did not enable us to make a payment.

3. We have no record of your application.

Me too... and, seemingly, a lot of others who posted their forms on the 19th.

Me three (posted 19th).

I wonder if the online form is semi-automated and easy to process while the paper forms were just fukked into a cupboard.  An Post allegedly did similar in Xmas 2018 when they were overwhelmed by Amazon stuff.  They figured the stuff was already late (and they get fined for late deliveries) so they ignored those packages and just concentrated on what came in afterwards.
