I was supposed to receive my first Google Adsense check worth $110 this 25th of February because I chose the Standard Delivery type, but until now, I have not seen any traces of the check. I regularly visit the postal office, in fact, the postmaster already complained saying that I should wait because it will arrive just like the previous one (she was referring to my Google Adsense PIN).
When I read about publishers losing their Adsense money because someone else cashed it (Jepoy was the latest victim), I was alarmed. I immediately contacted Google informing them about my lost check asking for a possible re-issuance of the check. Gladly, I received their response within minutes. They asked for the Payment number and the amount sent (these can be found on your Payment History page). It was a relief when they told me that I can expect for re-issuance. Yay! Heeding the advice of Yuga, I chose the Secured Delivery method so similar things won’t happen.
The postal service here in the Philippines has always been sluggish. There was one time that I had to volunteer myself to look for the letter about my NMAT (National Medical Admission Test) test information from sacks of mails. I saw how disorganized the post office was. I even found undelivered mails months prior. Only one staff was sorting out the hundred piles of mails. No wonder you have to wait for days after receipt before your mails get delivered to you.

It’s the postal service here in our country. It’s so slow, I recieved my AdSense pin after the post office recieved it from Google almost a month earlier.

On my case, I received the Adsense PIN after 2 weeks. Kaya I was alarmed when I did not receive the check after 4 weeks of payment.

Just a question.. I have already reached to US$ 50 but I cannot find a link in my payment History page that Google already send it to me the PIN. What do I have to do?

I think a Payment Hold link will appear on your payment history. Or you can wait for their e-mail about the PIN.
