I am beggining to see more and more of public service ads when I view my webpages. It used to be on my pages with image ads but now it appears on pages where I am supposed to be having text ads. Does anyone know what could have gone wrong.

I've seen this happen before, just give it a couple of days and hopefuly it will clear. If noy I would start to look at content and see if there are any (stop words) which is basically text that google might find inappropriate, here is a small list of potential stop words

I've been seeing this too, over the past several weeks. Earnings have been in a steady decline over the past few weeks, and the only factor that I can see is that my pages are showing an increase in PSA's.

These are pages that have been displaying ads for nearly a year. Any guess as to why this is happening?

I had this happen on one of my sites.
I (eventually) contacted Google and they said they would reset something and then decent ads started appearing consistently again.
This was a good 18 months ago.

Coincidentally, this is happening to me right now. The home page of one of my sites affected only. Started a few hours ago, just messaged G a little while ago.

Like leadegroot, this happened once before, same page, messaged G, they did something that time and it cleared right up.

I just confirmed that the common problems that cause PSA's don't apply to my sites, and I've sent the AdSense team a message stating my problem. I'll report back when I get a response.
