    Hi

    I know this has been brought up before but I wanted to talk more about it.
    I'm getting many ads served that include the advertisers phone number and I personally don't like this but wanted some feedback. I feel like there is no need to click the ad because you could just pick up the phone and call direct for info if you wanted. On the other hand, maybe someone might click the ad to do some more research before calling. Hard to say, but I still don't like it.

    I would hate to remove a high paying advertiser just because of this :)

    I have never actually seen this before. The only thing annoying I have seen is if Google can't crawl my page well enough or I don't have enough content for it to crawl.

    Yes it is immoral on the part of advertizers such is immoral to make users click misleadingly. Google should prevent advertizers from doing so.

    Only reason I'm bringing this up cause I don't have just one, or two..I had 3 showing at once? All showing their phone numbers.. I'll just give it time to sink in before I do anything.

    Wish there was a button I could just select to show ads with no phone numbers in the content of the ads.

    Just filter them out through the competitive ad filter

    Easier said than done. I already have a list going and its time consuming.
