    Hi,
    I have been banging my head for a whole day nope but no solution yet.

    I have opened an Adwords account , Gave my billing info but when i try to load balance, I receive an error which says

    We were unable to authorize a payment on your credit card.

    My billing info is Correct, also i use Visa Debit from New Zeland.

    Also is it possible for me to open a Adwords account with a VCC and later pay with my Bank Balance.

    Or please suggest a Good Idea to open an adwords Account.

    Worried

    Try hitting up AdWords support. Might have to do with your credit/debit card company. If not, you can wire them money from your bank

    how to contact support or how to set up the billing method?

    probably because you are outside the US they may not take wire transfer.

    Dear friend,i would suggest not to wait for google support. they are no more customer friendly and focus. they even dont have a single phone line to provide customer services.. i think your card is not varified with a google account and thats you bank not letting google take money off your account.

    The best thing to do is use a credit card, if you have it...Visa Debit cards are a bit different than other Kinds of Debit and Credit Cards... they are not so widely accepted for online transactions... so try and use A Master card.

    Cheers

    what are you talking about? have you ever called 866-4GOOGLE? they will help you out. Google isnt going to just take your money. if you've had some bad luck with AdWords accounts thats fine, but don't assume they wont help you if you call them.
