(my red WordPress t-shirt and my Google cheques)
I hate waiting for Google cheques. They take an eternity to arrive and take even longer time to clear from the bank. In fact, I am so bored of waiting, sometimes I never even bother to collect from my sis’s house. Hehehe, it doesn’t come to my house….you know why? ;)
So, I am really glad to hear that we can now arrange for the money to be transferred direct to our Malaysian bank accounts. I read about the method from Kongtechnology but I haven’t enquire about them from CIMB yet. I intend to personally go to CIMB and settle this. It is much easier to see the officer and get the right answers.
I am making a trip to CIMB this week to :
1) Open (more) FDs :)
2) Enquire for a debit card which will allow PayPal to debit into my account
3) Ask how to get Western Union bank to transfer the money from Google to my CIMB account.
So, finally, we Malaysians can give three cheers that we can get Paypal and Google Adsense payments direct into our bank. Maybe it is because of the big increase of Malaysians making money from the internet? Like you and I , for example? Hehehe, just joking. But seriously, we are finally making money in legitimate ways and this is part of the factor, isn’t it? Can I say, Malaysia Boleh!!!!

There is an alternative by selling it to the paypal users, but it is too risky.
Is there any other way?
