    So a few years ago (probably 2 or 3 years) I opened an adwords and made a budget of $50. After one click charged $0.22 my visa card got declined and the account got canceled.

    I'm trying to start another campaign now that I know a bit more what I'm doing, but theres a red bar on top of my adwords
    Now whenever I log into my adwords account its a red bar on top of my page saying it can't be reactivated.

    I've even tried to add my new credit card so I can pay the 22 cents I owe google...
    Is there any use in contacting google about this or should I make a whole new google account?

    Lol I just noticed that after I added my new card it immediately got charged $5.22
    I guess I forgot it was $5 to open a campaign or account (back then at least).
    I contacted them right before I noticed the charge. I'll give it a day or two and see what happens now that they've charged my new card.

    I feel like I've been cheated because the red bar specifically says "Any edits made to your account while it is cancelled will not be implemented."
    THATS A LIE, my new card got added and charged..


    So my question is, will I have to pay $5 again to start a new campaign, is it still like that?
    And another question I guess would be can I get a devils advocate and sue Google for lying to me? =P
    I HATE being lied to.
