After 2 years, I finally got a payment next thing I know they're accusing me of click fraud -- think I was earning a lot??? Heck no. One 100 something check! Big deal. But I was due another one and do you think they paid me? Heck no. Profits were down for adsense and adwords so I guess they went after all us little guys who got a big hundred dollar check figuring none of us, like me, would have the power to do anything. But they kept the money from my blog's legitimate clicks. That's cheating and stealing! And they don't even let you log back into your account so you can see what happened. They just say your guilty and you have no way to prove otherwise. I thought in this country we were innocent until proven guilty. All I got was lousy form emails, not even a real name attached. I don't even think real people work at google, just enough to send out lousy form emails and most of the time if you get a real one in english whoever writes it doesn't understand english and sends a bunch of unhelpful stuff that doesn't make any sense -- like at amazon, but that's a whole nother story.

I started using google adsense in november. they said that they would issue a pin to me. But i never got it. Now they will not show any ads on my site now because i have not got my pin. I had all the information right since the start of the sign up.No customer service to check what has happened. i am worried that i will lose all the money i have made. Is yahoo ads worth doing instead of google adsense. If the problem is not solved soon then i will switch to yahoo.com ads. I have lost faith in google. I have the exact same problem.

I still haven't requested payment and let my adsense earnings accumulate, so will Google mess up my check? Now I've lost all faith in them. I also have a video games blog and am using adsense.

About a year ago, I was working for a large company which I shall call JoJo just to conceal it's name. JoJo wanted to integrate Google Earth with some of JoJo's software. JoJo would have been willing to pay Google a lot of money (maybe a million, maybe more) for this integration. I was asked to contact Google and see what they would charge. It was difficult to find the right number to call and when I did get the right number, my messages were not returned. So I quit trying. Google is very successful and in their primary business, they don't want to talk to their customers, so I think that great customer service is not part of their culture and maybe it never will be.

They issue cheques once a month, build a bridge and get over it. How much money are we talking here? Its not like you can't pay your rent or something. Big organizations are inefficient but I gotta say I was kind of stunned to see you change your address and immediately after send a request for payment. Just asking for trouble. Personally I think you are making way too much of this. Dude, Whilst I understand your frustration, you are sounding a like a whiney little kid.
