Ads not posting, "Payment Pending" error

    I signed up for my account on the 13th, with postpay billing. I set up an ad and waited to see it start showing up, and it didn't. I now have two campaigns going and neither is showing up. When I click on the magnifying glass next to the keywords it says that my ads aren't showing because my payment is pending.
    On the 18th I applied a promotional code, so my account balance is now +$65.
    And I'm still getting the same error. I've tried contacting adwords support, to no avail.
    I tried to edit my billing preferences so I could change it to prepay, but it's not even giving me that option.
    Help!

    Personally I think that Google's E-mail support is terrible and very time consuming

    I always use their phone support, which is much, much better and less time consuming

    Give them a call at 1.866.246.6453
