The SSA started notifying people last year. Via USPS. I got that notification more than once. It included information on how to set up payments to your bank account. That, despite the fact that I've been getting direct deposits for almost 30 years.

Clearly, you do not have all of the information. So, you have had to make corrections and delete replies in this thread. Jumping to conclusions often results in such issues.
