Google says EFT made but no money in account

[wileystudios]

I am using EFT and it says that the payment was made on the 26th but there is NO money in my account. Has anyone else seen this? This is the first time this has happened.

So it doesn't just say: "Payment In Progress" and actually says: "Payment..." with the payment amount in parentheses...($1.00)?

I've seen this happen before. In fact, my account says the exact same thing.

This isn't that mysterious. If Google made the payment late on the 26th your bank probably wouldn't receive it until the 27th and your bank's systems might not reflect the payment until the 28th.

All I can say is that this is my 5th payment by EFT and I always got the payment the day Google said they paid it. This time it did not happen.

yes, same situatio here.

says Payment... but nothing in bank account. usually funds in account same day as the payment link.

It may be bank related. I just skimmed my Adsense payment transactions for 2006 and the Google EFT reached my bank from 2 to 4 days AFTER the Adsense payment history said it was sent. In no case in my experience did the payment arrive the day (or even the day after) Google said it was sent.

FWIW, I'm in the US and have been using EFT since it was in Beta about a year ago.

May have something to do with YPN eft that has already hit bank accounts, 1st month eft is offered by Y and its already faster than G eft.

YPN told us 27th, and it came on the 27th. Come on G!

I posted this in the pip thread as well, in 2 years was always there within a few hours of showing payment and once even showing pip it was already in my account. I wonder if they've outsourced publisher payroll to a new company after the exchange rate mixup a couple months ago.

happens a lot to me. i dont worry about it though, g never stiffed me, and always paid me before the end of the month

My experience exactly.

Same here except Google started EFT on the 23, said payment was complete on the 26, checked with the bank twice today and still got nothing.

4 days to do an EFT? Something sounds wrong somewhere. The bank told me to check with Google.

Google has never stiffed me either, but there seems to be a glitch they aren't aware of.

I don't like glitches when it comes to my money.

You people panic too easily.

Had the same thing happen last month and the cash showed up sometime after midnight to I expect to see something within 12 hours.

[loganz]

just stop worrying about it, like i said and a lot of other members have said, this happens a lot. there is no reason to panic, google does say they 30 days to make payment. they are doing us a favor buy sending payments on the 23rd.

dont waste your time, your banks time, and googles time over something that is not a problem to begin with.

So everyone will know I just got my payment by EFT. Google said they did it on the 26th and I got it late on the 27th. First time in 5 EFT payments it was not on the same day but glad to have it in the account.

[eeek]

You inspired me to check mine. Google says paid and the bank doesn't. But it's way to early to worry any ;)

[walrus]

I just recieved eft, incrediBill is right, we do tend to panic to easy. Another lesson learned I guess, have to budget better and then it wont matter if its a few days later than usual.

these posts get old...

Even if my payment was after the stated payment date I wouldn't complain. Google has always been earlier than expected. I just appreciate it and don't take it for granted.

So what if YPN is earlier. Their not paying out anything close to what Google is paying out.
