  What YOU reported to US

Larry: I received my PayPal Plus Credit Card on 12/28/2007 there two charges on my statement to Google Adwordscc@Google.com ca one for 100.00 and one for 200.00 on the same day 12/8/2007. I have never did business with Google and after reading the horror stories on the Google site I'm really surprised that Google has not taken any steps to keep this from happening. 

Ian:  I couldn't agree more with your home page - been on Adwords since they were a private company - and it worked and it was simple then they came up with the obscene cost increase auction system in 2006 that will raise prices far greater than those cunts ever lower them if your aren't deemed to have "relevancy'"...Which incidentally is the biggest lie of all - it is NOT TO DO with relevancy it is to do WITH A WAY THEY CAN JUSTIFY THE ABSOLUTE GREED that is ruining small businesses (I used to spend £20,000/year)

So for 2006 I spent the whole year jumping through there ever increasing AdWords hoops - the complexity is just fuckin ridiculous - I am an advertiser not a fucking Nobel laureate physicist with everyday I spend on this earth working on AdWords campaigns - just to make the fucking system work because after all I am selling health eBooks and I don't want to raise the price from £10/$20 - it's supposed to be available to low income individuals.

Of course the end result is EVER DECREASING RETURNS LOADS OF STRESS JUST TRYING TO MAKE WHAT YOU ONCE EARNED AND MORE PROFIT FOR THOSE CORPORATE BIG SWINGING SHARE PRICE ARSEHOLES. MEANWHILE THERE SEARCH RETURNS LOOK EVER MORE LIKE A BORING BORING BORING SHOPPING MALL.

ROLL ON MICROSOFT'S' INBUILT WEB SEARCH NEW OPERATING SYS. They can all get in a boat and float straight to fucking hell as far as I'm concerned.

Google Shopping Sucks


Mark:  My son who has NEVER done business with Google noticed a fraudulent charge on his statement.  $144.00 and the culprit was GOOGLE*ADWORDS CC@GOOGLE.CO M  Nov 19 @ 4:09am. The only recourse is to email Google as they give out no phone numbers.  Hopefully our financial institution will charge back this amount! Thanks for maintaining this site.  It is interesting that Google allows it to exist in its search database – that is where I found it!


Wendy:  I am not an advertisers or anything. I am just the regular Joe that roams the net looking and reading information. Got my credit card statement the other day and this charge was on there. Trying to dispute it now. I never dreamed they would do something like this. Just goes to show again you can trust no one.
11/11/2007 GOOGLE *ADWORDS - CC@GOOGLE.COM, CA $57.52

Follow-up:  I have one thing to say. I did write to Google and they are saying that they will cancel that acct. And no further charges will be billed to that card. We will see about that. Nothing about giving me that money back so my card people are still disputing it. Now I have to totally cancel that card and get another!!! This bites to because I have no idea how  they got the information as I only use sites that are locked and protected.


Michael:  Hey, just thought I'd share this.  I just logged onto your site for the first time and saw where Wendy had posted information on Google*adclicks billing her.  I JUST had the exact same thing happen to me last night. I found a charge on my Credit Card from Google*Adwords Cc@google.com Ca in the amount of $57.91  I am not, nor have I ever been, an advertiser with Google.  I have no businesses or websites to advertise.  The "representative" was very unhelpful and rude.   You don't have to take my word for it though.  The chat transcript from trying to get help follows:

Chat Transcript
info: Thank you for contacting Google AdWords. Please hold a moment while we route your chat to a specialist who will help you with your question: "There is a charge on my credit card showing up as: google*adwords Cc@google.com Ca I have no idea why.  I do not, nor have I ever, had an AdWords account.".
info: Deepika has received your message and will be right with you.
Deepika: Hello Michael. Thanks for contacting Google AdWords. I'm happy to help you.
Deepika: I understand you are concerned about a charge from AdWords on your credit card.
Deepika: I can investigate this for you. Can you give me the date and amount of the charge please?
Michael: Yes. The date was 11/25/07 and the amount was $57.91
Deepika: Thank you. Please hold on while I investigate this.
Deepika: Also may I know your card type?
Michael: Visa
Deepika: Can you give me the last four digits of your card please?
Michael: ####
Deepika: Is sceus@kitte.com an email associated with you?
Michael: No, not that I can think of in any way
Deepika: OK. I see that an AdWords account is associated with this charge. I will need to escalate this to a specialist team for detailed investigation.
Deepika: I will get back to you via email once I have a response from them.
Deepika: Is ###@### the best email to reach you?
Michael: Yes. When should I expect a response?
Deepika: I am sorry I cannot promise a timeline but will get back to you as soon as possible.
Michael: I will be reporting this to my credit card company as well.
Deepika: Sure Michael. We will get back to you soon on this.
Michael: There is no follow up information or case/tracking number that I need to be aware of?
Deepika: No, that will not be required.
Deepika: I will only get back to you via email.
Deepika: This may take a while so I request you to be patient but be assured I will get back to you.

Follow-up:  Just thought I'd follow up on that bullshit from the other day I sent you.  This was their response.  You'll notice they "closed" the account but refused to refund my money.  They instructed me to contact my financial institution to have them reverse it.  I fail to see how it should be MY responsibility to get my credit card company to return the charges.  Why couldn't they just refund them.  What an exercise in frustration.
