October 2009 PIP Thread

I really expected to see PIP today.....

[WolfLover]

Sorry for the post, but I REALLY expect to see PIP today. It's after 4pm Google time and I figure they are closed for the day? lol

Anyway, just wondering if anyone else got PIP yet or was I just off on what I expected?

The deposit has been made.

Now all I have to do is to figure out what to spend it all on.

November 23 is on a Monday next month... then again, so is November 30. Wonder what Google has in mind for us?

I think this month was at a disadvantage because the 25th came on a weekend - Sunday - since the 25th of the month is what is usually expected as the average PIP date. Since the 25th comes in the middle of the week for November I suspect that we won't have to wait til the last week of November because there are only 2 days in the last week of November which is Sunday and Monday. The popular theory is that we get PIP-ed on the last Tuesday of the month and that would be Nov. 24th - or there abouts.......

But if we have learned anything its that as far as the PIP showing up goes we can never really pinpoint the actual date that it will show up - its like its got a mind of its own...........:(

Now all I have to do is to figure out what to spend it all on.

Mine comes in handy to pay some of my bills - especially my Internet access and such but I try to spend some of it at least on a congratulatory pizza or some other kind of takeout food! :)

Payment issued. (Ireland/EFT.) No sign of it in the bank account yet.

Mighty GOOG almost missed this one. At about 6 AM G Time today I finally see PIP.

Got the cheque in India..(in the morning of 30th OCT)

PIP just in, 4 days later than usual this month.

[jason1989]

PIP status as of Friday and still the same today (Saturday). It looks like it's going to be a long PIP weekend for me :(

P.S. Radix, it looks like you got PIP the same day I did. Did you get 'Payment Issued' today?

[radix]

@jason: still getting this: Oct 30 Payment in progress

You're in the UK, right? If memory serves me correctly, publishers from the UK and Hungary - and probably more countries - get their EFT payment in the last turn. Almost never this late before, though - with the exception of 29 Apr 2009.

[jmccormac]

Well it appeared to be Payment Issued now it is Payment in Progress. Ironically Google Dublin is only about 100 miles away.

Radix,

Same Oct. 30 PIP status for me too, here in Mexico. My 'Payment Issued' status has always happened anywhere between 08:00-13:00 PST and have a feeling that 'Payment Issued' will occur today.

[SEOPTI]

Do they have financial problems because the payments are so late?

[jason1989]

Checked status at approx 12:00 PST, 'Payment Issued'.

[radix]

Payment status still stuck: Oct 30 Payment in progress

[SEOPTI]

Yes, it's still stuck, no payment.

[radix]

Payment status changed to: Oct 30 Payment issued and my bank account has been credited with the payment today.
