My donation was credited on 12/28. It's unlikely that the check I mailed got from my current location to the P.O. box by 9/28. If, as it appears from this, Phade checks the box quarterly, it's probably not a good idea to mail your check after the start of the 4th week of March, June, September, or December if you want it credited with any especial speed.

hth,

I donate once a year and each time I noticed that processing my mail-in check to Phade does seem to take longer and longer. It's been over a month, on March 21, when I mailed in a donation check. My profile still shows a Donation Due notice and I don't think it has cleared the bank, yet. I PM'd Phade just to follow up on my status and check if he received my payment. I figured he only checks his P.O. Box only occasionally so this confirms my suspicions. Thanks for pointing this out, Kai. I'll remember for next year.

How long does it take to process a mailed-in donation? I mailed it in about three weeks ago (I know you got it because I sent it with confirmation) and it still hasn't been cashed. One week ago I sent an e-mail to the address at the beginning of this thread and received no response.

Now what?

We're working on it. We should have the donations resolved within the next hour.

Also, because of a lot of recent changes and issues on Paypal's end, we encourage everyone to start using only the amvorg address for donations via Paypal.

Thank you.

Everything's been rechecked and verified, so your statuses should be updated now. Let me know if it hasn't.

Thanks :)

Hello,

I'm mostly posting this to see if I even have a problem. Is the process usually instantaneous if you're donating via paypal? Or does it take a while, regardless? The only reason I'm asking is because the thing said "PAYPAL THANK YOU Verifying transaction information... ERROR: PayPal response was" (and yes, the message was cut off). I only made the donation today, but things like those worry me (I had a similar problem with Megaupload and it was a big mess), so I thought I'd ask ahead of time and try to nip this in the butt. If it'll go through regardless of that message, please ignore me and forgive me if I seem impatient; if not, please let me know so I can get that email out.

Thank you for your patience and time.
