Problem setting up my new Adwords account

    Hello, all:

    I would love to hear some pointers. About two months ago, I purchased an online store from a close friend (I basically took over the business, buying existing stock, web store code, client's database, and supplier's accounts). I spruced up the store with a few customer friendly changes, and move it to a new server. The server provider gave me a coupon code for Adwords, to be use in a new account.
    The previous owner advertised in Adwords, Overtire, Bizrate, shopping.com. It was decided that she would cancel her PPC campaigns, and I would sign up for new ones once the spruced up store was ready to go. I had no problems establishing new Overture and Bizrate accounts (these are now running).

    I figured that the Adwords account would be the easiest to set up, since I had a coupon code from my server provider... Wrong! I cannot get past the credit card approval stage (my credit card keeps getting declined) I have called my bank several times. There is no reason that it should be declined.

    Any comments why? The Adwords customer support has, so far, yield no explanation.
    By the way: the domain for my store is www.bohemia-style-cosmetics.com

    Regards,

    Lorena

    Only adwords is going to be able to assist you with a cc problem.

    I figure that out... but, has anybody out there experienced something similar? Does Adwords have a customer service's telephone number? Any insight will be appreciated!
