According to Google, they cut you a check when your ad revenue hits $100, which means he should have gotten a number of checks before now. One has to wonder why he’s only now starting complaining.
Well, I’ve got about $21 to go before I’ve made enough to get my first check (hint, hint), so if I don’t get mine when I’m supposed to, I’ll let you know.
He was asked that question (basically “Did you jump through all the hoops?”) and his reply was that when it concerns that much money, why wouldn’t I have followed all the steps?
Note he did not say yes. He gave an answer like someone in criminal court that thinks he can misdirect the judge. I think he didn’t do some critical step and is trying the embarrass them so they pay him to shut up stunt.
My money just shows up in my savings account. I usually have money electronically deposited in my checking account, but I thought it would be easier to track elsewhere. I wonder if the problem could be something as simple and stupid as that: he forget which account he had them send the money to electronically.
Damn - I hope they’re still paying - mine is creeping toward its first payout. Only in the last month or so have I started earning proper money on Adsense.
My WAG is that there was something wrong with his site- Malware or something. Or perhaps as Harmonious Discord guessed, he has not given them all the req’d info.
Google can also tell if the clicks are being done by bots, or by the same PC, and buried in the fine print, it says they’ll withhold payment under such circumstances.
I jumped through all of the appropriate hoops and had no troubles getting my check for AdSense. I think there’s a month delay between when you reach the cutoff point and when the check is mailed. I’m coming up on my second check now, too. It’s not exactly making me cash hand over fist or anything, but it’s pretty nice.
