I got this message 30 mins after creating the account and loading 100$ into it,

"Your access to Microsoft Advertising is currently blocked

We have detected unusual activity in your Microsoft Advertising account. As a security precaution, we have suspended your account and blocked your access.

You can no longer sign in with this user name or email address.

To resolve this issue, please contact Support."

I have never used microsoft ads before, this is insane. I feel like they robbed me of my money. I didn't even do anything.

When i contact support they say they cant even tell me what the issue is.

Can someone please help me resolve this issue?

Thanks,
Matt

    Same happened to me trying to open two different accounts to get around it and as soon as I finish signing up and trying to input my payment method I get banned. Submitting an appeal does nothing. I don't think they actually have a review team. It is incredibly bad Business practice for Microsoft and they are going to go under for it.

    Try Propeller Ads. They are cheaper and more lenient.

    I agree it is definitely evident they don't actually have a review team. That's why customer service will not give you their contact information.

    Try Propeller ads they're cheaper and more lenient anyway.

    Hi.

    I also have encountered this problem with two personal accounts and even a business account that appeared to be working for 3 days and now has this same old, lame, boring and utterly useless message. The answers from their supposed support is also always the same and leads to ZERO results. The live consultants are better but also cannot do anything to help. I would seem as if Microsoft Advertising does not care or does not even want any new business. As a newcomer to CPA marketing, this is very disheartening and frustrating as even the simplest to fix mistake or issue results in a banned account. And when you do do everything rite, even then you get banned. I would never recommend this experience to anyone.

    Regards

    G. H. V,
