    Just see what they say when you ask for more information about it.

    There has to be something within your account that got you banned.

    What did you use as the signup keyword, text ad and landing page?

    Also did you use a VCC?

    I got banned as well, for an "affiliate bridge URL policy" that they like to enforce. One of the dumbest rules I have ever seen. My question is this has anyone on this forum been banned and actually was able to make a new account and get it running again? I haven't created a new account yet, just looking for the steps to make an account successfully. Any information on YOUR personal experience that actually worked would be really appreciated. Not being able to use Ad Words is a huge downer.
