Doc Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I had two credits each of $15.31 to my account today, just called "Other Income". I wondered if it was payments Alamy had recovered with their "Incorrect usage described" scheme? Anyone else had this and any thoughts?

Cheers Kumar Hi Kumar, If you look at the details field within balance of account you should hopefully see a better description: Re-input of funds for refund error <DATE / IMAGE REF> A refund was issued in error recently for a sale that had already cleared previously last year. This is to correct that error and ensure you are not out of pocket. This particular issue affected 89 contributors for sales dating back to June 2019 but has now been corrected. Sorry for any confusion caused. Thanks, James A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Kuta Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Thanks for the info, James - Did this apply only to certain buyers, or cases in general where a refund was for a previously cleared sale, or what? I had a refund in early March of an April 2019 sale that had cleared. There was a resale for the same amount, but one result of the accounting was that my cleared balance was negative for a while. Is this the same situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the same situation? No this is different, as the resale would've "replaced" the previous sale in your example. This particular case was a result of a refund that was processed that shouldn't have been. Best, James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels Quist Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) Yes, other income $3.62 - Edited: seems to be explained - but as I found the amount in "Download sales report" on today's date - I cannot see any remarks - will be visible tomorrow in balance of account.

DJ Myford Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Same here. It's the first time I've seen it, and I assume it relates to a "Worldwide Ad and Marketing Package" licence from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VbFolly Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I also had $3.62 other income. The statement says ASCRL payment 2020. Not much, but better than nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimar Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) I didn't know the US had a payback scheme for copyright. The American Society for Collective Rights Licensing. I wonder why I don't see any "other" income for me. Has anyone signed up for this directly? Edited August 28, 2020 by Reimar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Kuta Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Yep, $3.62 here too. Apparently the ASCRL process produces a group average payment, not individualized like DACS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abiyoyo Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 The same amount to me as well. $3.62. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reimar Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I wonder if the people getting US payback are letting Alamy do their DACS claims. I'm not, so I wonder if that's why I see no payment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
