Delay in Adgroup Approval

[trannack]

I have noticed that since the last algo change the delay in getting changes approved is phenominal. At the beginning of last week I increased my bids on a significant number of adgroups. The increase in CPC was also significant - what do I see? Most of these adgroups - that were performing well in the first place, are now slowing down. I increaed the bids, as these were doing well, and I wanted to increase the traffic - not decrease it!

When I put up new adgroups - they seem to take forever before they are fully operational. Anyone else getting this - or is it just me?

We are noticing some delay with advert approval. we use an api interface and we can not add keywords to accounts where the creative has not been approved by Google, we used to have to wait overnight before our tool added the applied keywords, about for about the last week on some accounts none have been added, and our tools tells us the creative’s still haven’t been approved.

In a word, yes we are seeing some delays in approval.

Hi,

I am currently allowing up to a *week* for approvals, though I'm chasing anything more urgent with a polite email to support.

At least its not just me. Dam annoying though. Making me think twice before I tweak anything - seems to have the reverse effect for ages....very costly!
