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

    I'm just curious if this issue has anything to do with Microsofts advertising campaign claiming that they will give you $150 in ad credit if you create a campaign and fund at least $20?

    Seems like maybe they are suspending accounts that deposit less than $150 as they would be losing money under the guise that we some how violated a term but can't disclose any information. Seems hard to believe we all have the same problem with no actual insight, means to correct the issue or option to appeal.

    Yes, myself as well. I even had someone from Microsoft Support reach out and tell me I could send a Private Message and he would investigate my Account and let me know what was going on with my suspended and try and give me the reason. I just got a follow up from his after about 2 wks and all he did was send me the same type of a template response just like all the other Support Agents. So that was again just a complete waste of time. Not surprised.
