    Hey,

    Just wondering, do I need to go through the PIN number process if I have my account set up to recieve via EFT?

    Regards

    You have to wait the extra month to get your first check. There is no way around it.

    I believe the PIN is a relatively new feature, perhaps only in use since late last year (not sure of the exact timing). People who have been in the programme earlier than latish-2005 have never had to use a PIN.

    The PIN can take a while to arrive - anywhere between 2 - 4 weeks, depending on where you are. I had 3 months earnings waiting for me by the time I received mine!

    Okay, that's cool. Do earnings continue to accumulate during the period of time it takes the PIN to arrive?

    Yes, you need PIN.

    All accounts after Jan 2005 need to enter PIN.

    Once you reach $50 you will get one.

    Cool, just hit $65 earlier today and they put my account payments on hold. How long does it usually take for the PIN to arrive? I'm in NY, Google's in California.
