Withdraw AdSense with Western Union

google adsense

If you are staying geographically far from United States, you are probably waiting weeks for your AdSense check to arrive, and another few week for local bank to clear the check before you can withdraw these cold hard cash.

Google AdSense now provides an option,you can withdraw your money through Western Union. Western Union service is available in CIMB Bank as well as some Pos Bank branches. Click here to see a step by step guidance on how you can withdraw AdSense money through Western Union

Verdict

My AdSense check is sent to my Malaysia home address. It took 3 weeks for the check to arrive and another 4 weeks for CIMB bank to clear the check. Withdrawing through Western Union is definetely a turbo approach to convert your AdSense check into cash. However the troublesome part is that you have to get these following information prepared before you can receive your money:

Western Union MTCN (Money Transfer Control Number)
IC/Passport
Amount to received
Sender’s Address (Google)

Withdraw Paypal with credit/debit card

I’ve written how you can withdraw with VMI but I guess that not really required now if you have a credit card or debit card with Visa, Visa Electron or Mastercard. There is an option in Paypal that allows you to transfer your money from Paypal to credit/debit card. Daily withdrawal limit is $500, each transaction will be charge a fee of $5. Read here for more information.

Verdict

Malaysian local banks have yet to be recognized or added into Paypal for direct withdrawal. My guess is probably due to the fraudlence caese years back. Now that if you have a credit/debit card, you should not have a problem transfering your money from Paypal. I’m personally not having problem withdrawing from Paypal as I have a Singpore bank account directly attached to my Paypal account.

Thanks Ades and Wayne for the heads up.

read thier tos,
PayPal, Inc. blocked us from our funds.

Consumer’s Original Complaint :
On 11/29/07 after we listed 2 very successful products on eBay from time period 10/28/2007 as user cooldeals2go and generated over 24,000.00 in sales for a four week period, PayPal, Inc., restricted access to our funds (which we cannot transfer $11,999.69 USD in funds to our bank account) and had eBay close/suspend our account cooldeals2go.
we were not selling any items that are illegal and our products were down loadable from the Internet and did not break any copyright violations.
