High technology in Russian, or how to get money from Google

    Google adsense
    So, an event happened not so long ago, the cherished 100 USD ran on the Google AdSense service .

    Accordingly, the time has come to receive the above amount!

    There are several options for obtaining:
    1. Check - standard delivery (delivery time - 2-3 weeks)
    2. Check - secure express delivery (handling fee 24.00 USD, delivery time - 1 week)
    3. Rapida (receiving funds 2 days after sending the funds)

    I somehow messed around with the check - this is a rather dreary procedure, according to which money can be received no less than a month after receiving the check and presenting it to the bank, and, again, you will have to pay a commission, most likely $ 15 somewhere .

    So, of all the proposed methods, Rapida looks the most efficient.

    Here is a quote from google.ru :
    What are payments using the Rapida system?

    Rapida is a payment method that allows you to receive AdSense payments in cash through the Rapida money transfer system. You can receive your payment at your local post office two days after sending it in accordance with our standard payment schedule.

    Choosing the Rapida system for receiving payments means that you do not have to wait until the check arrives in the mail. It also allows you to reduce bank fees and shorten the clearing time associated with depositing checks.

    Payments under the Rapida system are made in US dollars. The exchange rate will be calculated based on the rate used by the local post office on the day the payment is received.

    Rapid
    On the website of the payment system rapida it was generally difficult to find any useful information, but oh well, it was clear that some kind of notification would come and you just need to come to the post office!

    And here the fun begins! :)
    Post of Russia
    You need to come to the post office, and just get a payment transfer.

    So, I’m coming (Saturday, afternoon, sun, wonderful weather).

    I enter the post office building and see, oh no, the line. No, not that there is a huge queue, for example, there are 15 people in total, and 5 service windows, of which only two worked. Moreover, the people there received pensions, and pensions were issued in onka No. 3, despite the fact that the service for issuing pensions was indicated on a plate above window No. 2, but oh well.

    I’m standing, listening to the archives of the podcast Expert show “Runetology”I’m not touching anyone.

    Parallelism is developing a scandal on the subject “you were not standing here”, scandal, screams, even someone’s tears, references for some reason to “you probably weren’t in the subway on Monday” ... In general, there were some sort of showdown with me).

    And then I hear, through the sounds of the expert show, that there is no money at the box office. So, interestingly, money is transferred through the Russian Post, but there is no money at the checkout. People begin to ask, dear, and when the money will be. I don’t know, the postal worker says, we’ll earn a shchaz, then we’ll give it back. Well, an interesting approach, I have a small amount, so I think that is enough for me, I stand on.

    In general, they shot money at another box office, it seemed that the line began to move slowly, and then the line came to the pensioner, who received something about 20 thousand somewhere. There was no money for her, so in order to receive her pension, she stood for another 20 minutes at the window, until the missing amount in the neighboring box office ran over.

    And then the cashier from the 3rd cash desk, in which I was standing, says, that's all, there’s no money in short, who receives the transfers, go to the second cashier’s line, you still won’t get anything.

    Okay, we went to the second cashier. I stood in another line for another 30 minutes, and now it was my turn, they asked the amount, I call, the cashier checks his bins and says that there is enough money. Ok, I give her a notice, she enters some numbers into their mail program, and the system does not find anything.

    In general, she left to figure it out, then she comes and says, go to another department to receive.

    Well, in principle, the fool himself needed to go to one branch, but came to another (the number differs by 1 digit), although the system is fun, it was so difficult to make money in any department, given their money problems.

    As a result, he left with nothing, spent 1.5-2 hours, received no money, received a bunch of negative emotions from swearing and tantrums of people in the queue, during this time the money ran out twice at the checkout, in general, a shock from the Russian payment reality.

    He wandered home, and somehow he went so that he passed the necessary department, decided to go in, try his luck.

    There were almost no people in this department, and on the whole it looked somehow newer than chtoli, but oh well.

    I get up at the cashier, people there seem to get some kind of transfer, but something is also wrong with them, the cashier is confused, there is some problem that she has previously encountered and does not know how to solve it. Then, another cash desk just got out, came up and asked if it was possible to receive a transfer, but to me in reply: “Oh nooo, go to the 3rd cash desk, I have no money.”

    I smiled because it was just ridiculous, and went to the third cashier, but they still figured out the problematic translation.

    I look, the second one is free, I come up, ask if it is possible to get money, they ask me the amount, and after I call, they check the sufficiency of money at the cashier and tell me that there is enough money.

    Bottom line: I received my miserable 100 USD.

    What thoughts visited me.

    The first thought, when I just stood in the first line and did not know that there were money problems at the post office, I thought that 100 USD wasn’t worth losing a sunny day because of them, standing in line, listening to the squabbles that were in the line. And it’s better, well, I don’t know, to collect a larger amount and withdraw large amounts.

    Later, I was glad that my amount was small, because I did not have enough money for "large" amounts at the Russian Post. And now I don’t understand, what would happen if I wanted to get 1000 USD? It turns out that to transfer to someone such an amount - please, but how then to get it? After all, a transfer can only be received at the post office that serves the address of the recipient, but there may not be money.

    In general, it’s sad somehow everything, especially in the light of modern trends and talk about e-government.

    The President’s face flaunts on the Russian Post website,
    The face of the president
    but they did the good thing, the transfer system, but there is no money in the system.

    And note, this all happens not somewhere, but in the capital of Russia ... what happens behind the MKAD ?!
