In the Results page of my account there's credit to receive related with September. Is this possible or the page is old? I read that the granted credit was given in 2 weeks but in that page it shows that I didn't received yet credit from a month ago...

Thanks,

But the validator hasn't been running so no credit has been given in a while..

Don't worry, I've a machine active from 28th September which is yet to receive credit.

Initial investigations suggest only 10-15% of the credit requested since that date has been granted.

The 2 weeks you read about is only one possibility. I don't want to rehash the subject of credits but if you read all the threads about it (I know that's a lot of reading), you will find that the time it takes to receive credit can vary from instantly to several months or never.

It will be as long as it takes to get three valid results returned and cross checked for that WU. Once the validation checks are in, you'll get your credit assigned. Sometimes you're the first one to process a WU and it takes forever for two others to finally get matching results in. Sometimes you're the third guy and the credit can happen as soon as the validation server works thru the backlog and processes your result.
