    What I don't like is it goes to my checking and I like control over when money goes in and out of my checking account. And I transfer over in even numbers when I need the money and haven't spent it.

    They're going to screw this up. And probably explains the snafu from a couple of months ago when transfers didn't go through it seemed, then they all did, and those people got to keep the extra money. They were testing it out I bet, or pushed code they shouldn't have pushed live.

    I suppose it's a tax compliance thing, there are probably workers only reporting whatever they transfer to their bank, using payments balance to make Amazon purchases.

    I would say money being lost is just me being paranoid but I actually lost $75 during one of their transfer issues. I spent almost 2 months arguing and sending the proof (email deposit/transfer receipts, etc) before I got it back. Sure it was just 75 but I was more annoyed than anything and refused to let it go.

    But yeah re-verification is an issue too and I hadn't thought of it.

    There ya go with the logic, lol.

    That's probably it. CHEATERS ARE WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS!

    I always just printed out my dashboard at end of year and reported the year to date earnings that way. My accountant said that was fine.

    I still haven't received the email.

    I agree, I like it the way that it is. So much less control this way. I read the email waiting for the catch.

    payments is much more complicated than that. I can even pay my credit card balance with Amazon Payments, so transferring money is not related to tax, it is about the money that goes into the payments.
