I lost my Adsense check
Yup, you read that right.
Usually I get my check by the 29th of every month and today it’s the 5th and I am yet to receive my Adsense checks for last month.
The problem is that I get my checks as standard post and not much care is taken while delivering them.
So basically I am $ 489.30 poorer for the moment.
However, I was relieved to know that I could easily request a reissue of payment. I just have to wait for a few more weeks for the check to be resent.
I can submit my reissue claim only after 25th Feb. This complex problem has a simple solution and I guess that is why Adsense is doing so well, after all everyone loves great support.
This is what I got from the Adsense FAQ’s
So the next time you lose your check, don’t panic as there is an easy way out.
How do I request a reissue of a payment?
If you receive payments by standard delivery check, you can request a reissue of a payment made in any month after the 25th of the following month. For example, to request a reissue of a check originally dated February 27th, you’d need to write to us after March 25th.
If you receive checks by Secured Express Delivery, you can request a reissue of any month’s payment after the 5th of the following month. For example, to request a reissue of a check originally dated February 27th, you’d need to write to us after March 5th.
To request a new check, please contact us and specify the number, date, and amount of the check that you’d like reissued. You can find this information by visiting your Payment History page and clicking on the details link related to the payment for the appropriate month.

Sorry to hear that! Hope you get your cheque soon. French post is notoriously unreliable, so I understand. I’m lucky, Canada Post is great!
Wow, I’m amazed by the way… almost $500? How did you do it? Hell, I’d be happy to get only a tenth of that!

I am 100% sure they are lost, the last time the mailman just threw them in the compound and I almost lost them.
I guess it time I gave the poor fellow some tip (sarcastic)
My entertainment niche sites are doing well to get me those clicks. Personal blogs don’t attract the clicking traffic and on mine I haven’t made a penny.
Zhu you could have a go at widgetbucks.com, they work better for me on some sites an you can use them with adsense
