I think the only way I could get another one is to open another account at a different bank that offers visa debit cards. Gonna be many days of missed revenue, fuck. Gonna have to get a real credit card I think.
 
Are anyone else's total impressions down across the board today? CTR's are staying the same though. Kinda strange. Anyone else seeing this?
 
Hmm....Facebook billed my credit card, then said payment failed, they billed my debit card and said the payment failed now it is telling me to:

We were unable to charge the credit card associated with your account. All of your ads have been paused. Please go to the Payment Information page and settle the outstanding balance.
WTF they billed me twice and are saying I owe them more money???? Yet in my statements online I see they have billed me! And I have still been getting clicks for my ads
 
New Error for me...

new error for the day:

I have my laptop and a desktop computer I log into my FB account with. Both in different locations, different IPs. Now, when I log into my account at the desktop, I cannot manage ads. All I get is a graph and the ability to pause the campaign.

This started happening since the chat fucntion rollout.

I have cleared my cookies and cache, and sacrificed two chickens for good measure.

Anyone else have that issue?

It looks like they rolled out a new credit card fraud system. If your credit card failed 2 times, it will be blacklisted.
 
re: new error..

The fraud department of my bank called cause they wanted to know if I authorized all these Facebook charges, I just checked my statement

The hell...and I haven't tried to add a new credit card. It's been the same two I have on my account since I started
 
I made sure I had two credit cards listed, one main and one back up.

Recently my main card had reached a point just below its limit and the latest billing amount took it over so the payment was declined. However, the back up card never got used as should have happened because somehow FB had deleted it?! So I had to re-list the card.

Its all been a bit messy but at least ads are running again ok.

So the ad manager template issue is likely caused by using IE7, thanks. Odd that it was all working OK until the chat thing came on this week..
 
FB has just become a pain in the ass to work with. I posted an ad last nite that get's approved and followup this morning with a creating a similar ad but exactly the same; disapproved. The inconsistency is stupid and i'm sick and tired of that shitty interface that was created to manage ad's. I agree with recent posts, time to go elsewhere because the days of easy abuse 6 months ago are over..

I agree 100% man, it's just not worth it with Facebook anymore! The easy days are long gone, it's time to move on to greener pastures. :thumbsup:

Same shit response. Keep on sending them emails. Not that I do not want to pay but their credit card fraud system is just dumb.

.

yep, i emphasised in my reply that i wanted to pay them but this is the only card i have (visa debit).. geez im not an average middle class american i dont have multiple credit cards to sling debt from one card to the next, where the hell am i gonna get another card. I dont think i can even get a real credit card, my proof of income is shady, they dont just give CC's to everyone here in australia.
 
guys, when i make an ad that gets approved, start seing 0.09CTR when should i lower my CPC? after 5k, 10k, 100k imp?
yesterday i lowered it from 22 to 9 cents on 1k imp, today reached 8ki mp and traffic stoped, now isn't receiving any traffic
