Adwords Account suspended, no reason given

Hello Members,


For past ten days my google ads were not running, I contacted them to know the reason, instead of solution I was told that my account is suspended, here is the email....I was using an account from one man selling "$50 Activated Google adwords accounts"

Does anyone has an idea, what may be the cause?

 

what products are you selling...

Any drugs, pharmacy, or any other items....

 

may be the 50$ activated account violates some TOC of adwords...
try signingup a fresh account.. and find out

 

I hate that letter, I've seen it so many times

You won't be able to create a new account, using same details and the same card.

 

Why are you using a bought Adwords Account, would it not be more prudent to Sign Up in the normal manner or is this a tried and tested way to use Adwords?

 

"For no reason"...LOL

What was it? Downloads?

Maybe it was that they really don't like people buying accounts and starting with $50 vouchers because it's against their rules...

 

PPC-Coach

My question might be OT, but do you know does Yahoo allow downloads? Like Music Downloads,Movies Downloads?

Anti-scammer

Contact them via Live Chat, they will be more specific, if you ask them why you are suspended

 

Just wondering, did you manage to get back with Adwords? How did you do it? I haven't been banned yet, but ever since I've come to DigitalPoint, all this hype with using adwords vouchers with multiple accounts, and sellers claiming "100's of their buyers have been doing this without problems"...got me convinced. But now I'm noticing that I'm not getting any clicks despite the fact that my campaigns are active!!...I'm sensing that they're maybe tracing me! I guess I may have fell into the VCC & Adwords account seller's trap (DP Member: "Disgused", iTrader: 219). Now I understand why they sell these 'voucher activated' accounts rather than using them for themselves!! The simple fact is, they've been banned, and they know it'll keep happening, so they're just making quick bucks selling $50 voucher activated before others find out, that they'll be nicked in no-time! Those bloody scumbags!

Hmmm....is there a way back into G-Adwords if I got banned within the next day or two? I have a bad gut feeling. I only managed to get $10 worth of free ads and ever since, it's not worked!

I feel sweat trickling off my forehead...if my adwords goes down...my simple website promotions go down the drain!

Do get back to me..Thx

 

One usually has an idea of why they were banned. Even after reading through the link provided https://adwords.google.com/select/tsandcsfinder . Review and make sure you didnt "accidently" do any no no's in their TOS.

 

I find this part a bit too vague
"reserves the right to terminate advertisements for any reason"

 

In other words: "we'll do w/e the hell we like...and the last thing we want is someone like you questioning us..."

They're becomming like eBay in a sense! When a company gets very successful...the bright colourful big image begins to turn ugly in ways you'd never see fit!

It's a pity Google may be going down that route...inevitably!

 

It just annoys me, that they don't tell you what exactly you did wrong

 

Like I said before. People have a general idea. Read throught the TOS and I am pretty sure one will go ohhhhh crap I did that. Many people know and pretend Google just likes suspending people just because.

 

lsptong

They could make our life easier just by telling straight away, what we have done wrong, instead of giving us a link to their T's and C's.

 

that's happen with us now to fix this problem
you must add new billing information

Best Regards

 

earngate

He needs completely new account. Changing billing information, won't change the account status from "suspended" to "active"

 

You should check your landing page, does it contain redirect ?

 

If you are deceiving the visitor in any way, its against Goog rules.

 

At a risk of stating the bleeding obvious...

Perhaps they should cease issuing them!

Start a different business, go on a marketing course, put on a suit, get in a car and go sell your products to customers!!!. Life goes on

 

If you do not have Adwords account, it's not end of the world. Don't jump off the roof

You can try Yahoo - www.searchmarketing.yahoo.co.uk
or Adcenter - www.adcenter.microsoft.com

Of course, Adwords is the best, but these two are alright
