Google Bounces a Check! :)

Ok, this is hilarious!

Google writes a bad check to a woman!

From the post:
Quote:
  • Google Adsense technical gitch screwed up my address change for a month
  • The check is already six weeks overdue per Google’s schedule
  • I blogged about the experience
  • Matt Cutts from Google stopped by, tipped his white hat and passed the case to someone in Adsense management
  • A day later my check was sent via FedEx
So, today I go to cash the check. I’m standing at the teller window, and realize, gee - this is taking a long time. She looks up at me and says, “There aren’t sufficient funds in the account to cover your check.”
I can't stop laughing!

-Michael

Lol - how does that even happen ?

I say, “Are you sure? Do you know who Google is? You’re kidding me, right?” She says she does know who Google is, but that this particular account doesn’t have enough funds to cover my check.

lol...

As of March '07 Google had over 1 Billion in cash sitting in probably a multitude of bank accounts -- kind of funny that the one this cheque came from was lacking funds, which is probably the reason they don't get personally involved, and they let things go through a cycle between when funds transfer to an account from adwords revenue, and when they sent cheques out. Hopefully you won't get charged the $20 Returned Cheque Fee :P

They probably rushed the check with a different bank account. She did state her check was overdue. Chances are during regular business days, the payout went out to probably everyone that works for google, and adsense members, thus leaving that account zilch. lol
