    Recently used a valid $50 facebook ad coupon. A day after, they shut it down claiming that I have a fake account. No matter what I say to them, they just kept saying, as this account is fake, we will not be able to reactivate it.. BS! :mad:

    Sometimes Facebook has no real answers to their own actions. It's very disappointing.

    Facebook is megalomaniacal. You cannot argue with a megalomaniac. Sad, but true.

    sorry to hear that, in my experience advertising on FB wasn't really worth it anyway.

    I tried advertising on FB, but they are hard to please. Their policies seem to change daily. What's acceptable today, will get you shut down/banned tomorrow.

    I'd try a more reliable network like Ad Dynamo :) Facebook are very restricting and do anything they want without reason. :/

    Where did you get the coupon from? The seller must have stolen it.

    Ooh.. It's too bad. I hope facebook read this thread and make some improvement on it. If they don't make us satisfy, why do we have to advertise on them?

    The sad thing about facebook .. they hog all the traffic, keeping people on their site exclusively. I did manage to kind of advertise on facebook using their group things. I made an account for one of the sites ... then as an active guest, I joined groups and made friends. :)

    Facebook is full of BS. There policies are really full of madness. I would never ever pay facebook for advertisement.
