Brief update (will write more in depth later today):
Some Google person with no last name & a fake-sounding first name (Sophie?) wrote me a very impersonal, automated sounding email that said:
"During a recent review it has come to our attention that your merchant
account ID amy@slash7.com was closed due to a technical error. We
apologies for the inconvenience it might have caused. We have re-activated
your account and you are eligible to receive payouts."
Riiight. A recent review. Guess that had nothing to do with the fact that you guys made this topic a front page news item.
So now I've got my $200. Hoo-ray.
But this is ridiculous. I don't care about the money. I will never use Google Checkout again, once my money is out.
And I plan to continue to agitate for them to improve their policies, because I know I'm not alone in being ripped off... I'm just more loudmouthed and vindictive than most people.
Also, no word at all on the over $2,000 USD that was in the script.aculo.us Adsense account.
That's Google essentially stealing from an open source project. I just can't believe it.
By the way... My thanks to all the people outside & especially inside of Google who have tried to look into this case to the best of their ability. I truly appreciate it.
The problem is that it's no one's fault that my account got closed, and therefore no one's responsibility to fix it, either.
