Should I generate a new PIN?

Your most recent PIN was generated:
Dec 14, 2006

You can request a new PIN on or after:
Jan 6, 2007

It is January 4th and I still have yet to receive it. I am in United States so it should not be taking this long? Should I generate new pin on the 6th?

 

Yes, that is if you want to wait a lot longer. Don't forget it's the holidays which turns snail mail to molasses mail.

Even at best of times the PIN takes 1 month+ to receive, be patient.

 

same at a friend of mine also
i advised him to wait a few more weeks
and remember if you request new pin, the pin generated before is canceled

 

AFAIK, Thats not true. You should generate a new PIN, even if you receive the old one you can submit it on your account because both envelopes will contain the same PIN.

 

How long do it normally take from the time google advises a pin has been generated and to check the mail..... ? Ive done the first one and confirmed via telephone... Im now waiting for the U.S. mail delivery..... Thanks..Im ready for my first check, but cant get it till I comply with the pin verification

 

i knew differently :\
thanx 4 info and sry 4 my misguidance

 

No no The old PIN don't canceled .
The old PIN and the new PIN are true .

 

You need not , wait at least a couple of weeks more . Due to the festive period there was a delay i think.

 

waiting in canada 2 monthes already.... requested already 3 times .. wow that amazingly bad

 

After you've requested maximum times and haven't received it yet, Don't panic, you can email adsense to send PIN via DHL, they will deduct the DHL fee from your account but you'll get the PIN in 3-4 days.

 

an other friend after he requested 3 times he mailed them and they asked for a copy of he's id, so he sent it and they gave him the pin on mail and they also activated it

 

i got my PIN withn 20 days u know i am in INDIA , why its take long time at USA ? its coming from CA 94043

 

Well holidays is not an excuse..My PIN was generated on 11th dec and i received it on 26th dec in Singapore.

 

Just generate a new PIN
no harm done if you do so and if eventualy you get the first one it will be valid
nothing to loose

 

That is not true.

Generate it, both are valid then.

 

I've been waiting a long time too. Like 4 weeks. I guess it will be here sometime this year :-p

 

Yes no pin yet... but Ive decided not to generate if the first one will come anyway.......

At this rate it looks like im going to get my first check from Google in march which is a bit dissapointing.

 

I also generated new pin and in three days my first pin was at me.

 

So I should generate again? It still hasnt come and Im at $768 right now combined earnings so yeah probably a good idea.

 

Yeah I just generated a new pin now, because I havent received it yet.
