Usage, Penalty and Information Fees, Selected States 20 ©2011 National Consumer Law Center www.nclc.org Unemployment Compensation Prepaid Cards 1Forty states have largely stopped paying
unemployment compensation (UC) by paper check and now use a prepaid card for pay- ing some or all UC recipients. For recipients without bank accounts, getting cash from aUC prepaid card will usually be cheaper than
paying a check casher to cash a paper check.Prepaid cards also offer security over carry-
ing cash and the ability to make electronic purchases.Yet prepaid cards come with many fees
that nickel and dime unemployed workers at a nancially stressful time. The typical unem- ployment compensation check is only $294 a week, barely a third of the average wage. 1 Fees can drain precious dollars from families at the very time they need it the most.A survey of all 40 state UC prepaid
card programs shows considerable room for improvement in fee structures, access to infor- mation about the card, and payment options.Following are key recommendations to ensure
that UC prepaid cards fulll their promise for both the state and its workers. St ates receive separate grants for administrative expenses and are not permitted to fund those expenses with money intended for benets.But fees on prepaid cards skirt that rule:
22 cards charge fees at network auto-mated teller machines (ATMs), and all charge at out-of-network ATMs, on top of ATM surcharges.
24 cards charge ATM balance inquiry fees.24 cards charge denied transaction fees.
5 cards charge $10 to $20 overdraft fees.
16 cards charge for calls to automated customer service menus.
28 cards charge inactivity fees.
Other fees include fees for transactions
using a personal identication number (PIN), fees for live customer service calls, and teller withdrawal fees. States should eliminate all penalty and information fees and ensure that recipients can easily access each benet deposit without charge. Pr epaid cards offer little, if any, advantage over direct deposit for those who have a bank account. Some consumers will nd prepaid cards too difcult or expensive to use, especially if they are far from a network ATM.6 states that use prepaid cards do not provide a direct deposit option.
Only 3 states offer all three methods of payment: check, direct deposit and the prepaid card. Ou r review shows:The best UC prepaid cards are the Cali-fornia and New Jersey cards offered by Bank of America. These cards offer free
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
©2011 National Consumer Law Center www.nclc.org2 Unemployment Compensation Prepaid Cards laws govern various aspects of UC prepaid cards, but the protection is not adequate. DOL and the CFPB should:Review every state"s program to ensure that it complies with the law, includ-ing rules against mandating use of a prepaid card account and rules against certain fees.
Ban penalty and information fees and other unfair fees. Post all states" fee schedules on one website to promote competition and transparency.It is quite possible to design a UC prepaid
card that works well for both a state its unemployed workers. UC prepaid cards are generally an improvement over paper checks for those without bank accounts, but more work is needed to ensure that they deliverevery dollar to unemployed Americans.and ample access to cash and transac-tion information with no penalty fees.
Close runners up include Arizona (JP Morgan Chase), Maryland (Citibank), and the U.S. Bank cards that do not carry overdraft fees (Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming).
The worst fee is the $10 to $20 over-draft fee that can be incurred on U.S. Bank cards issued in Arkansas, Idaho, Nebraska, Ohio, and Oregon. No other UC prepaid card imposes overdraft fees.
The Tennessee card (JP Morgan Chase) has the most junk fees.The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) and the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)
have important roles to play. DOL has issued
important guidance for UC prepaid cards, but not every card conforms to it. Several federalAT A GLANCE . . .
