Is there a language barrier, or perhaps you haven't got the hang of the forum yet. He doesn't need me to defend him, and Blimp may sometimes be forthright (he wasn't, though, in the post to which you've overreacted) but he's as far from trolling as you can get. Let's keep it friendly here. 1 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Elliott Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 On 04/10/2019 at 23:13, Cryptoprocta said: Mine directly claimed last year was £156.97 (directly claimed). This year I sent the same form with the latest year's sales added (not so many qualifying sales in that year to be fair), but this year it's only £69.68 (also claimed directly). That's a shocking drop! I've just had a moment to check mine. It is down by over 50% of what it normally is. Every year I have claimed it has been consistent so I am shocked beyond belief that it has declined in such a drastic way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the emphasis on the kicking. I'm expecting a big drop next year as well when the VG Bildkunst one-off goes away.

Paulette 9 hours ago, LawrensonPhoto said: Do we get a late payment fee 😁 We're on the same boat. I also received it on Oct 11th in 2017 n Oct 17th in 2018, but I think 2019 seems bit late. According to this page: https://www.alamy.com/contributor/faqs/most-frequently-asked-questions/ "Q. When will you pay me for my DACS claim?A. We usually receive the funds from DACS at the end of September, and this will be added to your contributor account before the end of October. If your cleared balance is over $50, we’ll pay you in the November pay run." There're still days ahead. *crossing fingers* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Kirby Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I claim directly from DACs, my payment was received on the 4th October. As you go through Alamy for DACs, then payment would be the following month would it not? Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Nelson Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I just had "Other income" added to my account - assume that could be DACS payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njene Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 “Other Payment” just showed up in Account Balance - assuming its DACS its a modest $$ amount, but still a small bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
