WDBJ ^ | 08/17/17

ROANOKE, Va. (WDBJ) The contractor that maintains EBT services for Virginia's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is experiencing multi-state service problems.

This has resulted in an EBT System outage.

It is unknown when the system will be restored.

SNAP clients can call (866) 281-2448 to check on the status of the system restoration. Clients can also call 2-1-1 to learn of food resources that might be available to supplement their needs during the temporary outage. Also, clients can call the Enterprise Customer Service Center at (855) 635-4370 with any additional questions related to their benefits.

Shoot I was thinking run for the Wal*Mart.

The lines will be empty.

(who remembers the day folks loaded up on WM goods thinking there was all this extra cash in EBT? - and then left shopping carts filled with stuff?)

Before it’s over, they’ll have all folks on EBT, debit/credit payments only. We’re getting close to that. Notice that next time you go shopping. How many people pay in cash anywhere? Grocery seems like less than 10% to me. Convenience stores, I’d say 25% to 33%.

Comment from that site, hidden for some reason:

Bummer. Try calling them on your $900 iphone and see what’s up.
Or maybe turn on your $800 big screen TV and see if there’s anything on your $100/month Cable news. If that doesn’t work, get on your $500 computer and use that $50/month internet that is available.
If all that fails, go down to your local pub and build on your $350/month alcohol dependency you got going and ‘forget about your troubles”..
But never, never forget to always check your $100/month lottery tickets to see if maybe you’ll never have to worry about paying such bills again.

Hey $100 a month in lottery tickets is a business plan for wealth to some people.

Remember that Obama admin tried this a few years back. All kinds of chaos. Of course they just blamed it on Repubes.

If you live in one of these cities, then do not grill steaks tomorrow night.

The smell from the steaks can go a long way, and invite unexpected trouble.

I guess Tyrone and Shaniqua and Laquinda are going to form a raiding party headed for YOUR suburban fridge.

LOCK AND LOAD!

Those are great if you haven’t had them in awhile.

Then you remember WHY you haven’t had them in awhile.

As a SNAP/EBT/HIP accepting farmer, it’s down in MA too.
The peasants are revolting.
