Blocked Adsense Account - Still counts Clicks and $$$ What to do?

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by Andy$$$, Jul 7, 2007.

    Im wondering how d0 you know that your adsense account is blocked/frozen or what ever they do???

    I have a site with a partner. Two months ago he said that Google blocked his account and stopped sending payments to him (which 50% is mine!) he says that everything looks normal in his account. For example Adsense still count clicks and impressions and how much the account earned, it still says on the payment page that payment was sent to the bank account on file etc.

    In NO PLACE it says that the account is blocked/frozen.

    He said that when the 2nd payment didnt arrive he emailed Adsense support and they told him that the account was frozen.

    Is he telling the truth?

    We are talking about a lot of money so I would be happy to know if everything is like he says or not.

    Thanks

    First of all, google will still send you the money that you earned in the account even after they blocked you.
    Lastly, when google blocks your site, the ads will not show on your site.

    Your friend is lying to you. Tell him straight in the face, WHERE'S MY MONEY?!!!!

    Only if there is invalid clicks will google freeze your funds.

    2 things:

    1 - i hope you have is adress
    2 - if yes go there and take some kind of weapon with you (not to use it just to scare him)

    3 (i know 3/2 -.-) - if he gets scared and tell you the truth take him the passwords and everything and stay the one and only site owner :)

    When Google blocks an adsense account. You are done! You cannot login and see page impressions.

    Check payment history. It may just be a problem with address or tax info.

    that's right... if an account is blocked you won't see any ads displayed on your site... try calling or e-mail to Google about your problem

    If you are banned, you wouldn't be able to log into your account to see those details you mention- the clicks and earnings still increasing. So if you can log in, you aren't banned. (unless Google stuffed up.)

    The ads may not stop showing if you are banned- sometimes they do, sometimes not right away.

    If you are banned it is very unlikely you will get paid what is in your account. Occasionally they do, but mostly they don't. some people have lost thousands that have accumulated over their last month.

    Are you sure it was the whole account that was banned, and not just a site? Sometimes Google bans sites, if they are inappropriate to their program. In this case, your account itself isn't banned, and any other sites you have it on will continue to earn money and show in your details. Maybe this could have been what actually happened?

    If you can log into your account, I think you need to have a serious talk with your friend, and find out what is going on.

    Is your name and details included at all in the previous (possibly banned) Adsense account details, or just your friend? If it's only your friend, then you can start an account yourself, and make your own sites. Just don't try to put it on any sites his (banned?) Adsense ID is on, or your new account will end up banned too.

    And perhaps next time, don't work with another person on this kind of thing. Sometimes people we trust are not what they seem, when it comes to greed. We learnt that by hard experience.

    Thank you all! Now i'm convinced that I can't trust this person. I guess I have known it all a long but just couldn't accept it that a friend since several years back could do such a thing to me.

    I will take action accordingly.

    Thanks again!

    if the account is banned or frozen or whatever by google you cant login to your account again, but your partner is able to login and see all details so he's trying to fool you and not give you your share

    Sue him, take him to a small claims court, the only problem you have is if its not set as a business and its under his name, they are counted as his funds :S

    yeah its hard to sue him if you dont have any evidance to prove that you and him are partner for the business and agreed to share the profit. in this case he can run away with the money coz it's his account and under his name. try to talk nicely and if he doesn't agree, destroy the site!! (hope you have ftp account and password for that :p)

    About $10k but I don't care much about the money, I care more about loosing a close friend. How can you continue to be friends after something like this? :(

    Thanks for all your advice etc. I now have some thinking to do on what steps I should take.

    Andy$$$ for your friend money are more worth than you. I hate people like this. They are your close friends but after there is any option for good money they just rip you off.

    He is clearly lying and wants the $$$ all to himself. I think it's kinda obvious and you don't have to be a genius to know.
