AdSense Blog Reveals Odd Banking Policy

0 views

An otherwise mild write-up of how Google sends checks to AdSense publishers for their earnings has a strange twist that hints at a relationship with Citibank that defies common banking practices.

AdSense Blog Reveals Odd Banking PolicyAdSense blog some routine advice about AdSense. It almost sounds oriented toward international AdSense publishers, and I'd accept it as that were it not for a strange incident that happened in the US.

Back in July,

If a customer comes into a branch with a check drawn on a customer account (this used to be called an 'on-us check'), the check can be cashed if funds are available. Banks usually require an ID like a driver's license, while some go farther and ask for thumbprints and even fees to cash an on-us check for a non-account holder.

Google simply cannot tell someone they can't cash a valid check drawn on their account at Citibank. It sounds more like Google, certainly a large account holder, secured an agreement with Citibank not to honor a check at the teller line.

The insufficient funds line always sounded like bull droppings, and with this latest post from Google I'm convinced. We can't wait to see the spin on this story.
