My First Google Adsense Payment Via CIMB Western Union
Posted January 10, 2008 
Comments(9) It’s a new year for the Islamic Calendar today. I’ve been postponing my blog post and since it’s a public holiday today, I’m going to start off my first blog post of the year with something awesome. I GOT MY FIRST GOOGLE ADSENSE PAYMENT YESTERDAY!
I just love the smell of money. This year, I have a brand new target to achieve. I don’t want to call it my new year’s resolution because normally it doesn’t work, at least for me though. So, I just like to call it ‘my target’. This is where I’ll be spending most of my time planning what to do and focusing the activities around it. That target is my bank accounts!
Let’s leave my bank account alone for a while so that I can write about ‘How I got my Google Adsense payment through CIMB Bank Western Union’. 28 months (2 years and 4 months) ago, I registered myself for a Google Adsense account. I should have been getting paid from it a lot earlier if I were not being lazy. I’ll deal with my laziness afterward. How much did I get? Well, it’s only enough to get me paid though.
Being lazy as I always do, I rarely bring any pen and small paper notes around so I just snapped a photo of my Google Adsense payment particulars:
I then drove to my nearest CIMB Bank Branch nearby my office which is at Seri Kembangan. Asked the customer service officer for the Western Union ‘To receive money’ form and filled it up:
Hand it over at the CIMB Bank counter along with my Malaysian Identity Card:
The verification took longer than I expected. The CIMB Bank officer used a card reader, then he printed out my details, took out a cash payment voucher form. He then asked me to put my thumb on the card scanner to verify my thumbprint. A few minutes later, I was asked to put my signature on the cash payment voucher to receive my hard cold cash.
The rate that I got was around 3.3 but I really wish I can get more of those stacks of cash. It would really make my life a lot happier. Until then, I really got to work things out this year. Credit to LiewCF for the AdSense Payment via Western Union, Received! blog post.
