Looks different and has a different return address I believe. It might even be drawn from a different bank but I am not positive.

Check received today in Germany. Based on our experience Google is a highly reliable company. I'm pretty sure you will all receive your payment. As a matter of fact, Google is moving so fast: today they started serving ads in Russian on our Russian content pages. Amazing.

Google is a highly reliable company, I agree, they are great, I never doubted this. My fear is who will delivery the checks. Some people don't receive the check, that is fact, and need wait next payment cycle.

nsqlg, where do you live? I'm getting my check via that stupid ocasa company also and after 2 weeks I still haven't received it.
Is ocasa an established courrier in your country? I live in Mexico and I have never heard of that thing

still no cheque (Australia) have found from experience that if it isn't here in the first week of every month, then it generally does not arrive. so hopefully it would be here this week! (2nd week of month)

Hopefully, the reason will be: the check is cut by our local Australia bank in AUD$ :)

Nothing yet here in Australia. Must be the new currencies. I guess I don't mind waiting if it comes in AUD because it'll save me numerous weeks.

Still no check here. Still waiting on January's too.
Can someone tell me, for sure, if Secured Delivery actually means DHL for foreign publishers.
Secured Delivery = DHL?
The postal system here is incompetent. If secured delivery is not DHL, my in-laws are screwed.

Might be normal for Norway, but I live in Mexico, just across the border, and the guys from Adsense just say "hey, if it doesn't arrive on April 12 we will issue a new check"
Why the heck would I want a new check? So they can loose it again?
This is just ridiculous, they changed to some unknown company called Ocasa and evertything is a terrible mess.

Jardin, You are wrong. If it's coming in AUD$, the bank still needs to clear the check out of Australia, which means another 4-6 weeks.

Jardin is only quoting, he's not the one saying that it'll save him time.
