When you need to make a poll about it. So spill it.

The appropriate time is 90 days. For every 1K knock a day off. So if owed 90K, and 1 day late, time to out.

Hmm I'm not sure about how late it is, I think at the phoenix forum I was given a verbal confirmation that it would be paid, its not me personally that is owed this amount.
Per your calculation I think it was already late late at the phoenix forum. What's odd is that its a payment processor who seems to have issues paying 2500..... (to confirm it has nothing to do with ccbill it just hapenned to be at the phoenix forum there was a good opportunity to chase the payment)

When it comes to getting paid on time, it has become quite clear that there are just simply way too many affiliates out there who have been conditioned to just bend over and take it up the ass. Many affiliates feel as if the best route to take when attempting to collect a delinquent payment is to just send a 'professional' sounding email every week or so as they sit back and wait patiently. They are pussies. Plain and simple.

In a perfect world, the best time to handle the problem is before the check is ever even sent.

If your gut tells you that there's so much as even a slight, miniscule chance that there may be a problem in getting your next check from Sponsor X, then you should send an email to your contact several days before the payment is set to be processed and ask them a few well-thought-out, highly specific questions about a non-related topic. You can maybe start off by pointing out something which you feel they've been doing especially well lately and then follow it up by asking them if they have any suggestions as to how you can best communicate it to your target. Make sure that it's a real question and not just some made up bullshit and do not mention a thing about the upcoming payment.

When you proceed in such a manner, you are not only holding up your end of the bargain in what is supposed to be a two-way relationship, but you'll be strategically setting yourself up for the following week in which you can simply add something like "Hey Champ, I think I was supposed to be getting a payment this week. Can you look into that for me?" before hitting 'reply' on a business related email which suggests the possibility of more sales and contains something other than "Where The Fuck's My Money At?" in the subject line.

If you do all that and hold up your end of the bargain, I think the fair thing to do is give them one business hour to return the first email you send in regards to the missing payment. Be aware of the different time zones.

After that all bets are off. This aint Trading Places, this is real life! Protect Ya Neck!

I'm currently dealing with a fairly large sponsor that so far has missed two payments to me.
They keep giving me the runaround in e-mails "wait a few days, wait few days, account guy is on vacation, I'll look into it, etc"
It's been about a month so I'll wait maybe a week and then out them if nothing happens.

After 2 "missing" checks questions must be answered...
