Adwords
 

My campaigns have been under approval since Saturday and of course are not running. I never remember waiting this long to get approval when editing my ads. Anyone else going through this?

Under Campaigns, next to a current campaign, the status says Limited by budget yet the icon right next to it says my budget is ok and no recommendations are needed.

I even upped the budget and it still says I am limited by budget. Crazy!

No easy way to get support. Conflicting messages, waiting days while under review. Anyone else going through this?

That shit goes in spurts for some reason. I will get fast approval one time, and then next time have to send in a few support tickets before approved/wait.

No real rhyme or reason.

Yeah one time I they took so long I no longer wanted to run the campaign.

I've experienced slow response in approval time as well...Took two support ticket requests no response to the tickets themselves but the campaign was approved a week later

Don't try to get approved over a week-end.

"Manual approval by real people" it's called !
Takes time.

New campaigns can take up to 72 hours (3 business days) to review.

If you submitted it Saturday, the clock starts as of Monday morning, so you will have to wait until the EOD Wednesday or first thing Thursday to contact support.

If you make any changes to the ads or keywords, that restarts the clock :2 cents:

Just sit and wait until then, then start to email them through the online support. They cut back significantly on who they will allow for phone support and I have friends that are telling me they can not call in anymore and directed to online support.

LOL the last adult ad I submitted has been waiting for editorial review for over three weeks now. I submitted a mainstream ad 5 days ago and it still hasn?t been approved. It does vary greatly the last adult ad I got approved was approved on the same day I submitted it. You could send in a support request, but I find for adult, that is like shooting yourself in the foot as if they honor your request someone that normally doesn?t review adult ads looks at it and your chances of getting rejected are much higher.
