Ive finally got my adsense check but Im having a hard time withdrawing the money. The check is in $ and not in my local currency. Banks here dont allow to deposit or withdraw the check unless you have a dollar account. I dont have a dollar account. Im planning on sending an email to google if its possible that they just add this earnings to my current balance.. Do you think they'd allow?
Certainly you should be able to. Contact Google AdSense department. I'm sure they will be glad to help. Cheers!!
Just tell the google ..that u haven't received the cheque .. and thier is option in adsense ... "STOP PAYMENT" .. and after change the settings in payment option to INR instead of USD ...
If you are received normal delivery you can apply for re-sending the cheque thant time you can change to local currency If it is secured delivery, G knows it has delivered to you.
The check is valid for 6 months.. if you do not deposit with in that time, it will be automatically invalid and your adsense account balance will be adjusted. but, its better you ask google first. you can mail them at
where d'u live? how many adsense publisher in your country? lucky me, in my country there's a lot sites offering 1 day withdraw..just give them your cheque and in 24 hours i get the money,but i must pay some fee. in convencional bank need 3-4 weeks to withdraw.
Mind you, there are plenty of country where the $ is not an official currency. I live in Switzerland (yes the country of the banks...). I have asked my bank for a $ account earlier this year, but those are only available to enterprise who makes international payments. A person can get a $ account, but he won't be able to get the money, only to send it to a country where $ is a local currency.
if that cash is not Cashed in 1 Year they will automatically refund you balance into your account! Contact google for any other fast way!
of course you can withdraw dollars. why not? at every bank in switzerland .. they will use the current exchange rate and pay out in swiss franc..
I assure you I could not. And the clerc explained me that they are not allowed to deliver it to person, but only to use it in international payments... I had to close the us$ account to be able to transfer the amount on it to a swiss francs account. Make change, it's ok, but withdraw from an us$ account is something else. To be precise, I would had needed to write to the central o that bank, to ask them to enable payment from my acount based on the current change. As I had almost no moves on that account, I preferred to close it. Particularly with the euro rate in those times. It's not an advantage to be payed in $ when they are so low against chf and €
Sign the check over to someone with a $ account and have them give you the money.... I have done that for friends before...
Im from the Philippines. thanks for all the help guys. decided not to return it as someone told me a bank that accepts it but yo have to wait 25 days for the clearing time...
You can get a US Bank account as a Non-resident. You need this if you are trying to make money online. It sure helps. I have one which I opened from Africa. You can get one. I can help you. PM me. Regds.
can't you change your account settings? mine look like this: Zahlungsdetails [Bearbeiten] Zahlungsart: Scheck - Standardversand Währung: Schweizer Franken
