Ravi Exchange Company Stopped Paying or Blocked Adsense and Google Western Union Payments in Pakistan

 

Ravi Exchange Company which is very famous company in Pakistan for receiving Adsense, Google and other online Western Union payments.
The company blocked or stopped paying these payments to web publishers. After calling there office and asking for them the reason why they blocked or stopped paying the Google payments their reply was.
"We have some problems with the Google payments so we stopped the payments and they also commented that other exchange companies will also not pay Google payments.".
It was shocking to hear this as many of the web publishers in Pakistan rely on Western Union payments and it will be very difficult for them to withdraw there money via cheques. It will take around 30 to 60 days to clear a US cheque and some fee also applied.
It can be possible that the reason for stopping these payments was due to some fraud payments by some Fake ID's of publishers. Some publishers may lost their money because someone hacked their accounts and got their MTCN and with fake IDs withdrew their money. This can only be cleared by the Ravi Exchange company.
The hope does not end here We then contacted another famous exchange company AA Exchange we talked to them and the person on the counter phoned and took the permission for Google payment after a positive reply from phone they agreed to pay the Google Adsense payment.
I hope this matter will resolve very soon and Pakistani publishers will be happy again to take their payments without any problem.

Apple to invest $100 million in moving iMac production to the US

Designed by Apple in California. Assembled in USA. – This is what lots of new iMac owners noticed engraved on the back of their computers. A while ago there were some iMacs assembled in the US according to the retail box, not the aluminum back, but they were believed to be refurbished.
Now lots of the iMacs currently sold within the USA are actually build there too. The speculations are over, CEO Tim Cook came up with a statement on the matter. Here is what he said:
“Next year we are going to bring some production to the U.S. on the Mac. We’ve been working on this for a long time, and we were getting closer to it. It will happen in 2013. We’re really proud of it. We could have quickly maybe done just assembly, but it’s broader because we wanted to do something more substantial. So we’ll literally invest over $100 million. This doesn’t mean that Apple will do it ourselves, but we’ll be working with people, and we’ll be investing our money.”
So, the one person responsible for moving the production to China in the first place, is now responsible for bringing it back home. Apparently, we are talking for computers only here, I doubt the iPhone/iPod assembly will leave Foxconn any time soon.
The part where the production will begin in 2013 is pretty confusing, though. Given that there are already many reported cases of iMacs assembled in Apple’s homeland, it’s obvious that it is already underway. We’ll only know for sure when the complete interview airs on NBC tonight at 10PM EST.
