Faster than ever. Email sent 12.17 am Sydney time, MIB within 12 hours.
New record.

Their check printers and transfers are quicker because there are not as many numbers to add to the total these days :-)

Yes, quite bizarre. Payment was listed at pending and money was in the bank at the same time. Perhaps the payment report was delayed (like a lot of the clicks).

Hmmm, I have "Automatic payment pending", definitely no MIB.

On a somewhat related note, has anyone noticed how increasingly less cheerful the PIP emails have become over the years? :D Gone are "Good News" or "Congratulations" type phrases... and they've also become less exclamation-mark-happy as well. :)

^ Well, as sure as eggs I, for one, am not going to say that I'm pissed off because G has just transferred a chunk of money to my account. I'm happy whatever the amount, More happy if it's a large amount of course.

@nomis5 Hehe... I was actually referring to Google's email informing us of the PIP. :D

With the payment amounts rapidly declining it won't be long before the PIP emails just say "Here's your money, suckerz...".

I have PIP.
I have email saying payment has been sent on 22nd March.
I have no MIB.
Just where the freaking hell does this money go?
I get payments from all areas of the world and when the "send" button is clicked it's with me in, usually, 0.1 seconds or less however Google payments seem to go for a one or two day holiday.
Do other UK recipients have the same delay?

@RedBar Mine has been in progress since the 21st, but I don't expect it to clear until Friday. Bank with Halifax.

I'm not quite sure why threads like this exist to be honest. Has there ever been an issue with Google's payment schedule? Mine always went out on the 21st or 22nd of the month, or a Monday after if the 21st was on a weekend. Google has no control whatsoever over how fast the funds arrive once the money is on its way.

Fun ... plus we Brits like to see just how long our banks hold on to our money whilst denying us any overdraft facilities!
Here, take a credit card instead:-)

PIP here in the UK for April. About an 80% increase on March but much of that is due to the seasonal nature of my subject. It's down over 2015 for the same month (by about 12%) , taking all my websites into account.
But it's an excellent result given the strategy which I have put in place over the last two years. What Adsense earnings alone doesn't take into account is the increased earnings I have made from affiliates, one of my key targets for the last year. Take those into account and overall, March / April is a stunner. Well pleased.
Circumstances are changing at an ever increasing pace in the world of the internet

Noticed that instead of "Payment in Progress" it read "Payment Pending" I think on the 21st. Then yesterday on the 23rd it was marked as sent and have received the email. Still, no clearance in my bank today though. Wish it would hurry up, although historically May payments tend to clear on the 27th.

I'm so confused, topic reads 'PIP - AdSense Payment in Progress 03-21-2015', yet all the posts are 5/21/2016? MIB for me was 5/22/2016 at 11:00pm (my bank is eastern time and doesn't process on weekends)

The title was a typo, this is the PIP topic from March, 2016. And now for May as well, apparently.

Yep I stickied IncrediBill about unpinning my OP, but I suspect he might have more important distractions at hand.
