i used to mine eligius back in 2013-2015, but fell out of ASIC mining after the S5. at that time, i was getting payouts every 5-10 days.

A buddy was setting up a miner and wanted a pool last month. since nicehash was hacked the day before, i suggested eligius and helped him setup stratum using a segiwt '3...." address. after 3 weeks no payments, and i cant check the stats page

If its just a long time between payoutrs these days thats okay, but i dont want to have my hashes 'donated' if segwit wallet addresses are not considered valid for payout - and i cant find info on if thats the case or not within eligius FAQ
