Anyone receive their iTunes financial reports for February yet?

seanhelmes · 03-12-2009, 04:07 PM

Normally I have received my monthly financial report for the prior month sometime between the 5th and 11th of the current month. I have yet to receive my monthly financial report for February? Has anyone received their financial reports for February yet or is iTunes staff running behind schedule a bit? Any knowledge on this would be much appreciated.

I don't have mine either. I wouldn't be surprised if they're running a little behind; they rolled out iTunes 8.1 last night, so maybe that accounts for a little bit of the delay.

I've not had mine either and this is my first month of paid apps - I so badly want to see my first reports!

Forsworn · 03-13-2009, 02:40 PM

Glad to know I'm not the only one waiting...

brendand · 03-14-2009, 04:53 AM

I don't have mine either.

kilobytedump · 03-14-2009, 09:51 AM

Anyone know if they work weekends?

February is my first recorded revenue. God I can't wait for it either!

I've got the same issue. Posted here actually: http://www.iphonedevsdk.com/forum/ip...ger-month.html

And there is some good news. Luckily for February the weeks lined up less one days within the month. Our weekly trends start on 2/2/09 and end on 3/1/09 for those 4 weeks. If you total up the sales from there, you will get a pretty darn close figure to what your actual financial reports will say.

Nonetheless, Apple needs to get this resolved. They get plenty enough of a cut of our sales to put the proper team on making sure the reports get generated and set out in a timely manner.

Still haven't gotten my reports either

It's the 15th so hopefully it will be soon.. last month I got the financials on the 10th..

Are they delayed this month or what!

chill out, they issued Jan's payment around 2.28 - 3.2, so this money should be 3.12-3.16(15th is sunday).

thats my best guess.

Scuba · 03-15-2009, 08:06 PM

My concern here is that if the financial reports are 10-15 later than normal, does that mean we will be paid 10-15 days later than normal?

I'm good.. I was just saying..

mattjgalloway · 03-16-2009, 07:46 AM

Still no sign of the reports :-(

kilobytedump · 03-16-2009, 08:03 AM

Not a sausage.

underthesun · 03-16-2009, 09:34 AM

not a chinch yet. maybe the app store is getting too big? I have a feeling Apple's going to do something drastic..

mattjgalloway · 03-16-2009, 09:37 AM

Hmmm yes, I wonder if it's something to do with the iPhone OS 3.0 stuff happening tomorrow... I wonder if things are delayed and there'll be announcements about something interesting about to happen...

underthesun · 03-16-2009, 09:42 AM

"With this new iPhone OS 3.0, we're also increasing the yearly developer program fees to $999"

wheee

edit: or US$ 599

mattjgalloway · 03-16-2009, 09:43 AM

Lol they best not!

kieran12 · 03-16-2009, 11:33 AM

I hope the payments aren't delayed too. I'm using this money to payoff my macbook next month! lol

I guess the 3.0 software announcement probably has something to do with it. Hopefully they'll come out soon.

tkilmer · 03-16-2009, 11:40 AM

I wish they raised the cost to $999. Would cut down on most of the crapps.

mattjgalloway · 03-16-2009, 12:02 PM

I certainly hope they don't raise the price - it has enabled me to get into iPhone programming and I don't think my Subnet Calc / Subnet Calc Pro is part of the cruft which I assume you are referring to...

tkilmer · 03-16-2009, 12:19 PM

I am mostly referring to the fart, gun, and auto-dialer apps. I think people would be less willing to enter the iPhone market at a $999 fee, especially if they are making those types of applications.

mattjgalloway · 03-16-2009, 12:52 PM

Yes, but so too would people be less willing, like me who started off as a hobby and then the $99 (well, £59) was just about the right amount to pay. If I had to pay $999 per year, then I would definitely not have started iPhone app development.

I think Apple have done really well to make it accessible by so many people. The solution to reducing the amount of cruft is not to make it more expensive. I don't know the solution however...

johnqh · 03-16-2009, 01:48 PM

OK, let's compromise.

Two levels of membership - $99 for Ad hoc distribution for the hobbyists. $499 for App Store distribution.

I would be happy with that.
