Yes I said it, f#&% Google! Well not really all Google, but f#&% the Google AdSense team. Today, I made a video about a Google problem I’ve been having, but after reviewing my video, I realized was a bit too pissed off at the time of recording and may have ended up saying too much. So, you ask why I say f#&% the Google AdSense team?
A few weeks ago, I went to login to my Google AdSense account, and got this message. “What the hell is this?” I asked myself. It’s the Google AdSense team’s way of saying, “Thanks for all the work we had you do for free. By the way, f#&% you!”
After receiving this message, I checked my email to find the following e-mail from Google AdSense.

Does that e-mail really say why my account got banned? No, not at all. I did what the e-mail suggested and visited the support forum they offered. The “support forum” offered absolutely nothing in the way of explanation. At this point, I did some online searching and discovered that the Google AdSense team did this to more people than just me.
As it turned out, if your viewers jump up 3 or 4 percent in one week, then the AdSense team will ban your account. It does not matter how you get your traffic. I read where three other people online, were dealing with the same bull as me. After contacting two of them, I found out that after their appeals, Google still refused to give them their accounts back and made them give up all the money that they had made.
When you get one of these great messages from Google, its time to start looking for a new Ads provider, because even if you fill out the one appeal that Google’s AdSense team allows, you’re not going to get your account back. It’s their little way of saying, “Thanks for doing our work. We enjoyed your time as our slave, but we no longer require your service. Thank you.”
The Google AdSense team sent me this message today.

Google does not make it easy to reach anyone at the AdSense team. After searching for an e-mail address or phone number, I ran across the Google AdWords phone number which is 1-866-246-6453. I am posting it here because it may help someone else. The only thing I got from the girl who picked up from Google AdWords was Google Adsense does not take phone calls, if this was an AdWords issues then I could help you. Google AdSense does not have the same policy that the rest of the Google departments run by.
She was able to take my name website and e-mail address and tell me she will pass it on to the AdSense team but then she explained that I shouldn’t expect to hear anything back.
Wow. So, seven months of work down the drain. That’s right. I spent seven months hosting ads for the Google AdSense department. Just like everyone else on the Internet, the Google AdSense team kept me from receiving my money. A few days ago, I put up a post about A local food restaurant in my home town, this post made the front page of Consumerist.com and itsevansville.com
Our views here at nccsites went sky-high. If I would have had my Google AdSense account, then they would have banned my account again. It’s absolutely ridicules that Google banned my account, it’s even more ridiculous that the only way to contact the AdSense team is jumping through hoops and barrels to get some one just to respond to your detailed e-mail with some bull s#$& answer like this.
“If you have any questions about your account or the actions we’ve taken, please do not reply to this email. You can find more information by visiting the link below. https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=57153.”
Wow. Thanks Google AdSense team for having me and other people like me work for free. It’s extremely nice of you to allow me to host ads on my website and not get paid for it. Everyone loves to work for free. Oh, and with as many people who I have found online that Google’s AdSense team has f#&%ed over, I am really surprised that Google is still the top of the food chain for ad hosting. Small publishers like myself need to use other Ad companies, because Google’s AdSense has now shown that the small time publishers are no one and they are only out these days for the real big companies. I still love the other great service that Google offers, and just because one branch of their team is ass backwards, does not mean that the rest of Google is bad.
In closing, Google AdSense has screwed me, and they have screwed many other small ad publishers like my self. With no way to stand up to a company that has grown to become a giant, small websites like mine will need to look towards other company’s that care about their users. I have included the links to a few other Ad companies that I have found to be a good replacement for your AdSense account.
These companies have a contact phone number and will respond to their users.

Also, if you have experienced the same sort of problems from the Google AdSense team, we would love to hear from you. Please post your story below in the comments.
i wish i can f*** them hard, google is fording us. asssholesss
Deleted my account at $98.56. Screw them.
My website gets heavy traffic, so someone told me I should look into AdSense as a form of earning revenue. I did. I expected to make a few bucks, IF that, and wound up making almost $400 dollars the very first month! I was impressed. Unfortunately, on the day it was time to shift my earnings into the previous month’s earning table, I got an e-mail from Google saying they’ve suspended my account for “suspicious activity” (something to do with invalid clicks). Well, it certainly was though no fault of my own as I never once clicked on a single ad. I appealed but got the same BS letter back from them. I spent WEEKS implementing their code onto hundreds of pages on my website for naught. I didn’t receive a dime. When they deleted my account for good and basically banned me, I had to go through thousands and thousands of lines of PHP code and remove their worthless ads.
Fuck you, Google Adsense.
They screwed me too..
So i deleted al my videos an deleted my account.
FUCK Google Adsense
FUCK Youtube!!!!!!!!!
Thousands and thousands of account have allegedly been unlawfully and unfairly closed, without any explanation, none at all, and in many instances, nothing was wrong, they literally stole, the money, took it, in most places criminal charges would be filed, but Google is so large that they can Get away with behaving badly.
So I have decided to fight them back, I have decided to X out Google, XoutG.com Join us as we take back our websites from Google, they do not own the internet, they do not own our websites they do not own, anything…
I am sick of being treated like a second class citizen by Google, so yes, @$#%$ Google
Thanks for the information, the same thing happend to me. I started google adsense before I had published my website so I had no traffic at all. The next month (When it was published) I got a few hundred views and a bit over $40 of ad revenue. A day before the end of the month (When they confirm how much money you’ve earned) when I logged into my acount that day, I got a Diabled acount message. I do that apeal thing 6 months later (Because I needed a bit of extra cash) and I got that message. I thought maybe it was because I apealed 6 months after it was disabled. Thanks for clearing a few things up! And especialy thanks for the links to other ad services!
There are thousands of complaints on the internet about Google Adsense and the way they treat their publishers, but everyone seems to forget that publishers are also customers often of the very advertisers that advertise on Google, I have started contacting advertisers and voicing my complaints about how I was treated and more so when I am an active customer of the agency that is advertising on Google, I politely express my “Disappointment” in their choice of marketing, and that I will find it hard to continue doing business with a company that condones through advertising the allegedly bad behavior of Google adsense.
I have had an account since 2007 and never had one single problem, made plenty of money, never broke a single rule, but then someone named, joreeckee who could not even spell correctly the English language, decided that my account posed a significant risk, after that you cannot even speak to a living person, again if this were happening in any state in the union, and we did this to someone else we would go to jail charged with theft by taking.
But Google gets a free ride? If you feel strongly about this sign our petition on our website, X out Google Call for an investigation into the unfair business practices of Google.
The FTC and the DOJ needs to investigate this because it is the same as stealing.
Google is becoming VERY unpopular with young people. No doubt this is just the right time for Facebook to step in. Zuckerberg will do something to increase Facebook popularity even more.. just wait for it.
I have been making around $35 monthly from Adsense since 2008 – touch-wood. I just hope they don’t ban me unexpectedly. Anyways, sorry about your loss. A good website is always a good website whether it displays Adsense or any other ads.
This is my exact story…. I hosted google ads on my site for 7 months.. We never to a whole lot of traffic and made pennies a day.
After saving my pennies up to finaly receive payout 7 months later I get a letter from google saying that I scammed them with invalid clicks and refused to give me any other info as to why my account was banned.
After appealing I got a very generic automated message that basically said We are google, We took your money, Fuck you, and thank you for working for free.
It stated in the email that they will not tell me why the account was disabled and they don’t have to because they need to protect their interests.
Do not use google adsense They will not pay you.. They will take your money, and when even tell you why, or offer any recourse at all.
Google adsense is a scam.
I received exactly the same emails as yours. I wonder why microsoft still waiting for.
I agree FUCK GOOGLE. ALSO TRY AND CLICK ON ANY WEBPAGE YOU GET ADSENSE ADS ON SO THAT THE WEBSITE PUBLUSHER GETS BANNED. SP THAT GOOGLE IS LEFT WITH NO PUBLISHERS FOR ITS ADWORDS, FUCK THEM. SORRY GOOGLE I AM DRUNK, BUT STILL FUCK YOU.
