Google AdSense – Payment through Western Union
13,330 views
Your Western Union Quick Cash payment will be made in US dollars. However, at most Western Union Agent locations, you may have the option to receive your payment in your local currency. Conversion rates will be calculated according to the rate used by the Western Union Agent on the day you pick up your payment.
******************
My account balance reaches the payment threshold in November so I eagerly waited for December to get my payment. The only fault I did was not to check the Payment History in my Google AdSense account. I thought they will email me once they have processed and released the payment. But no, they did not. By the time I got tired of waiting, I became ‘smarter‘ and checked the Payment History only to be told that they have indeed made payment on 23 December 2009. My money has been sitting there idle laying empty eggs for more than 2 weeks now :)
Today, I went to the nearest bank with Western Union facility. How do you know if that bank has Western Union facility? Look for this sign as shown below:
I went to CIMB Bank. Wait! Before you go, there are certain information you need to have with you. You need to have the
* Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN)
* Amount in Payment Currency
* Your government issued ID (Passport, Driver’s License, National ID, etc) Our MyKad~lah!
* Sender’s information.
Once you are there, take this yellow form and fill it up. Very easy. For those of you who are so used to online banking and find that filling form is a culture shock, the nice lady at the information counter will guide you on how to hold your pen and do it :DOnce your form is properly filled, take a queue number and wait for your turn. When your turn comes, just present the form and your ID card and within minutes, you’ll get your payment in your local currency! Woo lah! You are now a few hundred bucks richer and happier! Go home and blog about it like as if others find it interesting to read! Next, wipe that silly smile off your face and go offline and sleep! =^^=
And then… wait patiently for your next payment threshold… :D
