The FAQ & Terms will always override what ever is written anywhere else. This was brought up in another thread, and I am sure it was just an editing mistake on Google's part (and I sure wish they'd get it changed one way or the other!)

The FAQ says:

Google will mail you a check within 30 days after the end of each calendar month that Google AdWords ads are running on your site if your earned balance is US $100 or more.

But I am also in agreement with SeaBoy - I am not worried about not getting paid by Google, I just hope it arrives before I leave for London ;) 30 day terms is amazingly quick when most take 60 to 90 days to pay, if not longer.

The only reasons why someone might not get paid is for AdSense fraud, or if money is owed for an AdWords account. As long as you don't fall under either of those, your check will be cut and mailed sometime this week.
