    stay calm sir. :) first, click at the red box, see why they still hold your payment. Maybe you not settle 2 more things which are

    1) your tax information.
    2) payment status which is via check or dhl or western union.

    Did this info help you?

    yep this has appeared on my account as well today, basically they have sent by mail a PIN number to your registered physical address that you have to type into your account to have it re-activated for sending payments.

    its a bit of a pain for me as my physical address doesnt receive mail so I need to 1) change my address and 2) request a new PIN.

    problem is they dont let you do that for at least 6 weeks after they send out the first one, so I cant do this until the end of february.

    I make quite a bit more than $100 per month, so basically it means I aint getting paid for january until march now, :(

    Google has mailed you a pin code which you will receive within 2-3 weeks time. As you get that pin code, enter it in your google adsense account after that the hold will be lifted.

    I got the same message, Payments on hold, actions required.

    Now, I've been receiving my payments every month for the past year EFT without any problem. Now they say there's an error with my bank account, I didn't change anything, and I received the January payment nonetheless.

    Strange...

    Same here. EFT setup over a year ago. Now says payment on hold, EFT failed, although January payment was received. Must be a glitch with Canadian EFT payments. Sent email to AdSense, no reply yet.

    Same here, oddly enough I'm from Canada too. The other odd thing, my account says they are reissuing my payment but the first payment went through.

    same here, i pointed out before that they might have mixed up the exchange rate again in another post:

    Now i think they might be doing something (i.e. to issue more to offset the rate) but messed it up by issuing an amount near to the monthly earning and then take it back so the EFT fails.

    Look at the payment issued there should be 2 more lines on Jan 29 that say fails after your original Jan payment issued message.

    oh boy, i'll just wait for adsense to email everybody.

    I just received a "payment on hold - don't panic" email from Google. They only sent 95% of the January EFT payment and will send the balance in 2 payments over the next week. I suspect they messed up the Canadian conversion rate.

    funny, my payments are in Euros (Im on a spanish address) - but I think there are two distinct issues here, a canadian EFT question and a new PIN number for international customers
