    Hey everybody - I just logged in to check my adsense revenue totals - Yesterday my earnings total on the "Since Last Payment" tab was close to $200 -- Just now I see that my total is $112 and a nickel... WTF?!?!? I just checked the adsense forum and many people have reported similar issues today - Anyone here notice a discrepancy in their totals and does anyone know how to get the error remedied?

    Jacquii.

    Mine seems to be okay. No big discrepancies here.

    I didn't think much of it at the time, but late last night when I checked the monthly total was $8 larger than it should have been. I figured it was clicks from something I didn't have a channel set up for, but the extra $8 was gone today.

    I had $150 one day and few days later .05 but the page impressions were way up. Which is why I thought that I got paid less....

    I haven't noticed anything odd with mine. I just know they better not screw up because I surpassed $100 for the first time last month, so I've got a $118 check coming my way. As I said, they better not screw it up. :giggle:

    LOL

    Well apparently it was a google-inspired bug - meaning the google tech personnel knew about it. The most infuriating thing is that google never officially let any of their advertisers/affilates know about the damn thang!

    Apparently the Since Last Payment tab date was adjusted so that it is the exact day of last payment or some such... I just received my adsense payment the other day and the payment total was correct, which is a good thing or I would have gone off LOL --- anyway - all is good in adsense-land :P

    I just wish google would have had enough respect and courtesy for its advertisers to let us know about the "quirk adjustment" made. I think it was a bit despicable for google to not have made some sort of official communication to the people that's making millions of dollars for the company o.O

    True, true. But there's not a single thing we can do about it. Heck, they didn't tell a publisher why his account was terminated until he sued them and won, and they then appealed it. That's what it takes to get an answer out of them.

    And since they're so monopolizing, 'ya can't really do anything except live with it or don't use their services. :rolleyes:
