I will try to explain my problem the best I can Google has been sending me $100 adwords coupons telling me to "come back to adwords" - I finally decided that I would, considering I now have a balance of $200. The Problem - I can't use any of that until I pay a $10. The Bigger Problem - Every card I try is "Declined" I have now tried 3 credit cards/debit cards and none of them seem to work. I always get "card declined". I know I am not typing anything in wrong as I have tried each card at least 5 times (15 times total). There is no issue with the bank/bank account/funds Adwords has not suspended me (as far as I know) - If they have why are they sending me these coupons and why can I still set up campaigns that are enabled? I have literally tried everything - The last thing is call Google (which I can't do until Monday) - Anybody else had the problem with "card declined" - Am I missing something?
Good luck reaching a live person at Google. I hadn't heard of "come back to adwords" vouchers before, I thought they were strictly for first time customer's new accounts, are you sure they are not intended for you to recruit new Adwords account users. I understand that some prepaid gift debit cards may be rejected, to minimize fraud and banned advertisers getting back in.
if credit card is not working try to pay then trough check.or else use Manual pay option so that you no need to enter any Credit card details.Later you can pay.
LMAO, Google just suspended me for not making a payment when I have been trying to contact them saying my card keeps getting declined... nice one Google.
