Adwords Bans Me, Then Wants Me Back??

Got banned from Adwords a week or so ago.

Spent a couple hundred to fund my account, used a promo coupon they sent to my email, started a campaign to one of my websites, then got banned. Don't know why, It was just a blog and not an affiliate page or squeeze page, and did not have any offensive content on It.

Sent them a pretty nasty email because of how much I spent on them, now today I have 5 or so emails from Adwords with more promo coupons that I don't have to spend money to active them, and telling me to log In and start a new campaign.

To my surprise I'm not banned anymore lol. Thinking If I should use the promo codes because that's the only reason I can think of getting banned last time, even though It was just one, and It was sent to my email after signing up.

Has Adwords ever "accidentally" banned your account In the past? I'm kind of thinking now It was a mishap.

    I dont think the coupons means your account has been unbanned, mine got hit a while ago for promoting a clickbank affiliate product through direct linking and my email is clogged with coupons from them.

    I called them, emailed them did everything I could and nothing worked so I moved on to other things. Your case might be different though but there used to be times when googling a popular cb product would yield tons of ads now it is all gone.

    Given their dire results released last month the ad sales teams must be under enormous pressure to bring back advertisers.

    Although they haven't done much to get me spending on there again.

    Adwords bans people from their automatic algorithms. When people manually check what happened they realize how messed up their algorithms actually are.

    I've scheduled a call with Google (they called me) so they can help "improve my adwords" today but dunno if I can be bothered. Too busy.
