  Cheasy keyword editorial review - product numbers being denied as phone #s

  I'm having a heck of a time justifying adcenter on a day by day basis.

  This morning i received a bunch of editorial declines because product numbers were being denied for being a phone number. Sorry, but thats just "cheasy" if you ask me.

  For example i use the KeyWord text in my ads akin to:

  {KeyWord:Huge Inventory} in Stock

  Huge Selection of products in Stock. Fast  blah blah

  http://www.widgetssss.com/?search.asp&keyword={KeyWord}

   In this case the keyword is "970264-0403" which is a logitech speaker set but all of my logitech product numbers - which people search for have been denied for being a telephone number.  Sort of dissapointing since bidding on "desktop speakers" is worthless on adcenter as well.

  Hi byronm,

  It appears that this is one of the times the automated process doesnt know the difference and it picked up the model number as a telephone number. Best resolution to this is to contact support and ask them to submit an appeal to have them overturned. Contact options below:

   Thank you
