    Adwords - No way to credit account in advance?

    Hi - I am starting an Adwords campaign for a client - and so I can keep track of what is coming and going in my bank account I would like to credit my account with say £40 at the beginning rather than wait until they bill me in 30 days.

    I am going skiing today and will not have the chance to check on the account much.

    I could just set up the daily maximum accordingly but does anyone know if it is possible to pre pay?

    TIA

    Dan

    I don't think so... though it may be best contacting Google about it.

    I'll try that. I have a £100 budget to start with so may just go through Overture.

    So annoying - "you'll be up in minutes" is such a fallacy - I understand that certain keywords need to be verfied for many reasons - but it would be nice if they actually tell you rather than just make it look like everythings hunky dory. "pending review" instead of "active".

    I have had a clients campaign waiting to start showing ads for about 4 days now + I got a free £50 voucher so have set up one for the ski site, same thing - waiting for review!

    I got a £50 voucher, but they wouldn't let me use it as I was already an advertiser

    Really? They wouldn't let you use it for the same site you already had an account for or they wouldn't let you use it for another site?

    Ski ads are now live but I set that campaign up after my clients and I am meeting with him in under an hour!

    I couldn't use it as it ran out yesterday and I never managed to use it. The voucher has OFFPUTTED me from being an advertiser with them, and I now feel google's service is shabby. I am now going to use Overture & DMOZ to search.

    lol. Incka, you're such a drama queen.

    I've not had any problems with Adwords, apart from not being able to use trademarks.

    Mike, I already had an adwords account, and they let me use my voucher without any problems. Maybe because I had the account under a month or something?

    Really? It didn't do anything when I tried adding it.

    How did you know you had funds in your account chromate?

    I looked at my accounts section and my account had been credited £50 straight after entering the voucher code.
