Six months back, I opened an account with adwords google (postpaid). I made 10 campaigns and made 100+ keywords for every campaign. And the bid was $1+ for every click of all campaigns and daily budget was $1000. My credit card balance was only $200 at that time. In just 2 hours, my ads stopped running because of exceeding daily budget. Now my amount due to google was $1000. And in the next day, I tried again for running ads. On that day also my daily limit exceeded. Now my amount due was $2000. Because my credit card balance was less than $2000, google my credit card was not charged to google. After some days, I receive some mails from google that to pay the bill, and given 60 days time. And after 60 days over google send me a mail that this issue will be taken by external collecting agencies. At that time I changed my name, address and everything in google except my credit card details because of it was not changing. For now, it was happened nearly 6 months ago. What will google do now? There is no name and address in google account. There is no phone no. When I want close my account, google mailed me that your account has an outstanding balance. Your experienced suggestions are very helpful to me.
THINK, THINK, THINK. Why do you put that kind of budgets? $1 per click for new campaign....Ahhh, you are crazy. If Google doesn't have your info, then probably they won't be able to do anything to you.
It doesn't matter that you changed your info - Google already has your info from before. You better pay the bill. You might want to read up on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collection_agency for how they'll try and get your money. You can't take advantage of a service and then not pay for it... That's called THEFT.
Why not go out and buy a $2000.00 worth of stuff from Walmart and then just refuse to pay it! You ran up the debt you should be responsible for payment. Sheeeeeeees!
I think that you won't have any other choice but pay. Adword is a service, a paid service, so you will understand that you can't use there service and ran out from the bills. For your infos, they do backups of their databses and they have your previous informations, so....
Be a man and pay up. You ran up the bill, now pay it. How would you like it if you had $2,000 in commssions coming and then they decided to NOT pay you? I'm guessing you'd go ballistic.
