I bought those $50 google vouchers for new accts and have used them all for various campaigns for my sites. Now my question is, when these run out can I cancel that acct, create another email for that same domain and use another set of vouchers? Is that against tos?
thanks

Well yes i believe its against the T.O.S . as posted in another thread ;-
i have had a huge experience with these vouchers. Recently i started buying them and was using them like anything. Opened about 5-6 accounts in total just using up the vouchers. One fine day my ads just stopped showing. Tried everything but they would not show up.
On contacting google , they told me exactly what i had done. Heres the official reply :-
Thank you for your email. Google maintains a high standard for the
quality of our advertisements and our user experience. We have recently
determined that you (or your
business) have maintained or are currently maintaining multiple
AdWords accounts simultaneously serving ads for similar or related
keywords and/or businesses.
In addition, our records indicate that some or all of these accounts
were opened using promotional coupons limited to one redemption per
individual or business. We ask that you refrain from creating
additional accounts using other AdWords promotional coupons that you
may already possess or obtain in the future.
Thank you for your cooperation.
I replied back saying i was sorry and if i could be reinstated . After 5-6 days they said that they had reactivated my accounts.

do you think it might make a difference if you let each coupon expire and then start another campaign with a diff email addy or are they that strict?

they will somehow find out in my opinion, so better not mess with Big G.

why didn't you use the codes and added it to your existing acct
about this voucher are they just valid for a certain time period. I mean if it expires on 01/08 and you have 31/07 you have $30 left will this be set to zero??

The codes should only be inserted to account before the expiration date, balance can be used any time.

This happened to me last week. I emailed google and they said i need to deposit an amount. i guess they don't allow some free "techniques" anymore.
