Anyone receive their iTunes financial reports for February yet?

seanhelmes · 03-12-2009, 03:07 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!

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

I don't have mine either.

kilobytedump · 03-14-2009, 08:51 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: Anyone else's financial reports taking longer this month?

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, 07:06 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, 06:46 AM

Still no sign of the reports :-(

kilobytedump · 03-16-2009, 07:03 AM

Not a sausage.

underthesun · 03-16-2009, 08:34 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, 08:37 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, 08:42 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, 08:43 AM

Lol they best not!

kieran12 · 03-16-2009, 10:33 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, 10:40 AM

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

mattjgalloway · 03-16-2009, 11:02 AM

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, 11:19 AM

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, 11:52 AM

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, 12:48 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.
