Probably
Never.
The cards were, presumably, all permanently canceled when ePassporte's VISA merchant processing relationship, from all indications, was terminated.
People seeking to withdraw funds quickly, in the meantime, will need to request a bank wire instead. ePassporte charges $50 and that's on top of fees one's receiving bank charges ($10-15 is common), plus intermediaries, if any, (often around $20 each).
It's possible that ePassporte could enter a new merchant processing agreement - not a sure thing. If they're able to, then they could then issue new cards, but that will take awhile, as in a few weeks at best, to more likely, a few months.
