AWA away soon

This time for real.

[AdWordsAdvisor]

I wanted to give you all a heads-up that I'll be on vacation all of next week. And unlike the last vacation I said I was going to take in July, I'm actually going to take this one.

Also, don't forget that Monday September 5th is a holiday here in the US. I'm extending that holiday through the end of the week - and returning on September 12th.

In my absence, I've arranged for a colleague to stand in for me - to look in on WebmasterWorld & post as needed (and as time allows). My educated guess is that their available time will be quite limited - so please be aware that posts will also be limited.

With eWhisper' blessings, I've created a new screen name for my colleague - who will be posting as AdWordsAdvisor2, otherwise known as AWA2. Kind of has a nice ring to it. ;)

Anyway, I hope all y'all will be nice to AWA2, who is pretty excited to post on WebmasterWorld.

Be sure and actually take a vacation this time.

Don't want a burned out Google rep posting here :-)

Enjoy yourself!

[eWhisper]

Enjoy the vacation.

We'll try not to be to hard on AWA2 ;)

I hope you have a nice relaxing vacation, so that when you return you can convince everyone the system really isn't rigged against them. :)

Thanks for the welcome! I’m looking forward to my stay here. :)

AWA >>> n joy the vacation, for a moment when I read the title, I thought you were leaving us.

AWA2 >>> What's a nice Googlette like you doing in a place like this ;)

Thanks to all for the vacation wishes! Gotta say it feels pretty odd getting ready to walk out the door. On the other hand, I'll bet I can get used to it.

AWA2 >>> What's a nice Googlette like you doing in a place like this ;)

There you go again with that Googlette stuff! I warned AWA2 about you, btw. So he or she is prepared. ;)

Nice to see you here, Shak. I trust all is well.

Thanks for the welcome! I’m looking forward to my stay here. :)

Have big fun, AWA2! I know you don't have tons of extra time on your hands, and I truly appreciate your checking in while I'm in 'The Land of No Computers'.

Don’t forget I am coming back though... :)

AWA - now handing keys to AWA2

Quick one to get AWA2 into the swing of things :)

I have contacted the Adwords team through my control panel twice with an exception request for one of my client sites over the past month, but have had no response.

I did email Google support between contacts, and they just said "use the Adwords contact form".

The Adwords team have always been very quick to respond in the past ... is this a general problem with exception requests? Any ideas for getting somebody to look at this?

Nice to see you here, Shak. I trust all is well.

Shak, every time you show up, AWA starts doing backflips. What is it that makes you such a babe magnet?

Enviously,

Just burned-out Google advertisers.

Hi there storevalley, thanks for helping me to get into the swing of things. ;)

I assure you that AdWords Support is working diligently on those exception requests. Due to the volume of requests that we receive, however, there may be an occasional delay. I apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

A friendly reminder for anyone and everyone who is reading this: Be sure to use the email address that is associated with your AdWords account when you email AdWords Support. This will help them to locate your account more quickly.

Thanks AWA2 ... will give it a couple of weeks before chasing this up again.

It has been 2 months already since the original request, though :(
