    Does the adwords group work on the weekend? I setup 3 ad campaigns on thursday and they were disapproved, so I fixed what was wrong and now I have been waiting since friday for them to be approved. This is kind of rediculous that it has taken 3+ days for them to be approved, any ideas?

    Hmm I have never had an add not approved so I don't know about that. What I do know is possibly the links are being used on another account, or maybe you have multiple accounts with the same CC. It has happend to me before and adwords is rough on getting the account back up and running.

    Not sure if this is it, but maybe it will helo :/

    Well I know thats not it, this is the company adwords account and I have had it running other campaigns for atleast 2 years. I tried to add a new campaign and its been sitting there for 3 days now saying active but not running.

    You might have tripped a content filter. Certain keywords will cause your campaign to be "manually approved." This happened to me the first time I set up an Adwords campaign. I was bidding on a keyword that could have been misinterpreted as "inappropriate" by an automated bot. The campaign was manually approved after 2 days. However, before manual approval, the account showed "Active" even though the ads weren't running.

    Have you opened a support ticket yet?

    Yes, I spoke with them on Friday and afterwards they reviewed and disapproved my ads because of the displayed url in the ad. I changed the display url on friday and nothing has changed since then.

    Since they were disapproved for some reason then i think google manually check them thereafter, then again it shouldnt take this long, unless they dont work weekends..
