Wow...here's a bizarre situation

Postby PiroStitch on Thu Jun 22, 2006 12:51 am

I just checked my account to see whether I had been paid by the MTB magazine for having my pic published, and the most bizarre thing has occurred. I've been paid, but by the previous magazine and I have no idea why as they didn't say they were going to publish my pic. I know both magazines have different publishers so I might pop into the newsagency tomorrow to have a look at the mag...

Has anybody ever had this occur to them?

I know the right thing would be to contact the mag and thank them as well as enquire why I'm getting paid - which is what I'll do tomorrow after I check out the magazine.

Mate, someone knows something or do you leave your bank details on the net?

Heheh I'm hoping the former rather than the latter... I know I don't leave bank details on the net (I'd be quite stupid to) :D

Don't say a word and hope it becomes a regular payment.

Sorry if I sounded unappreciative. I'm far from complaining, I wasn't expecting it as it was from the first magazine, not the second one...

well maybe next issue they'll use the pics. probaby your pics didn't make the deadline hence no use.
