Adsense Phone Verification

I've finally reached $50 and apparently my PIN is on it's way However, I also had to verify my phone number! This was new to me, I didn't expect it at all. I haven't read anything about it anywhere so I was a little surprised. As it happens, it was quite a cool experience. Yeah, it was just an automated phone call where I had to enter a six digit code, but that's not the point.

Google phoned ME. How cool is that?

Anyone else had to do this?

 

kool this is new never heard of this too

congrats lol

 

ya coool . I think its only for people from USA . Waiting for more for conformation.

 

Well I am from the UK so I can confirm you're wrong

 

I never heard of Phone verification I just entered my pin send by post to verify
my Google adsense account.

did Google change their Verification methods?

 

Whats the PIN for, I havent heard anything of this.

 

google sends a pin (Some numbers) when u reach 50 dollars in ur adsense acc this is for address verification . they only send payments after pin is entered

i guess thats the ans to ur question

 

My PIN is being sent to my postal address, this is to verify my contact address. However, I also had to verify my phone number too by inputing a six digit code when they called me. It is an automated system.

 

Lol I think they tried to do that with me but I just ignore all international calls

 

All payments are held if you don't verify your phone number.

 

oh was this new service,oh just a automated phonecall so you didn't get chance to talk with them.

 

I don't think Google would stop payments to me if I ignore their calls. There is no reason for them to penalise me since I had been making a small (like a drop in the ocean) but regular contribution to their till.

 

It's not a case of ignoring their calls. This is a new feature. You have to verify your phone number otherwise they will hold your payments. You choose a time that is appropriate for their automated service to call you.
