Google check arrived. Third time I’ve reached $100 with Google Ads. I used Claire’s iPod Touch to photograph and deposit the check into our USAA account, so that is different. I had a problem getting the USAA App to work. Kept getting a message it couldn’t read the amount. So I covered up the asterisks before the number with a little piece of paper (see photo) and that worked. I’ve had problems with those asterisks before when doing a scan deposit.
June 2004: Started ads
Sep 2006: First check $100.05
Feb 2009: Second check $106.54
May 2011: Third check $100.83
7 Years. $307. Woo hoo!
I’m on about the same payment schedule as you are (2+ years). For a while I was getting a check every 3 months though.
