Ive noticed Adsense cheques take around 5-6 weeks to arrive, where as other cheques from the states only take around ten days...anyone know the reason for this?

It all depends on where you live. I noticed US base publishers get their checks faster that foreign based publishers. Maybe there is extra processing involved with foreign checks...

It has been a long time since I had a cheque from Adsense. EFT is the way to go!

I live in Maine and I frequently find that my checks don't arrive until the last few days of the month. It always arrives just not as soon as Google says.

Was wondering that myself. I like EFT; it's extremely fast!

It's just the monthly joy of seeing those big checks in the mail box and getting to take them to the bank. It is that one moment when there is a tangible artifact that says, hey your site is a success.
