Do you guys transfer the full amount, or make it an even number? I'm weirdly anal about that and can't bring myself to not transfer an even number. If I have $125.37 available, I transfer $125. Anyone else weird like that, or is it just me?

Ha ha, I do the same thing. Only transfer even amounts to my checking account. Have no idea why I started doing that but now it's a habit I can't break.
I transfer every day, only because I've had account issues in the past. I used to only transfer when I had $100.
A few years ago prior to the change with amazon payments I did have someone steal a large amount from me. It happened in October and it took them until January to figure it out and return my money. That entire time my mturk account was locked up. But during that time I was actually contacted by a real person that works as a turk manager and she allowed me to open a 2nd account to work whily they tried to fix my normal account.
It bothers me more to leave an odd amount like 37 cents behind, so I take it all. Edit: And once a week for me, first thing on Sunday when I see my weekly report.
You could always deposit your spare MTurk change into my account. A little "salami-slicing" never hurt anyone.. EDIT: Someone's already ahead of my penny shaving scam.

I transfer twice a week, usually on Mondays and Thursdays. I do it in increments of $10, so that I do less math when I am trying to see how much has been approved but not available yet (since there is that multi-hour lag time between them).

I sent him an email explaining we couldn't get to the information and maybe just the name rather a search link would work better but heard nothing back. I wonder sometimes if these requesters know where to look for our messages. I've never worked with that side of mturk.
