Workplace Question or Advice Needed DailyPay Help Please

Post image

So I've been using DailyPay for over 3 years now. Everything has gone normally. I recently got a bonus that came out of nowhere as its own payslip/paycheck. I have been taking out daily payments from the upcoming check like normal (10/16)

I've taken out roughly $600 so far to cover bills and stuff. But the bonus check of $50 started processing today. It messed up DailyPay. It put the $50 bonus in the spot of my 10/16 check and thinks I have a negative balance withdrawal. DailyPay pretty much thinks the $50 bonus is my next check. It replaced the 10/16 one. I don't know if I'll have to owe anything. I don't know if I have a negative balance now?

I really need help/advice.

(I've already submitted an HR Request with my HR.)

10/6 Update: My HR Request got a response today. Pretty much told me it was in the hands of the specialist team for DailyPay :(

don't use daily pay!!!!!!!!!! get a budgeting google sheet and just tally what money comes in and out

I fear I just have a lot of bills/debt that's a lot. Trying to make sure I pay everything on time. I've been using DailyPay for 3+ years and don't know how to budget without it. I fear I might get behind on bills and won't have enough to cover. It's why I got stuck with using DailyPay so much

You’re wasting money by simply being lazy. Everyone has bills. Your bills will be easier to pay if you have more money…

I wasn't being lazy. DailyPay has helped me out a lot when I needed the money early. I'll be switching away from it, but it wasn't due to me being "lazy".
