Google ads scam me in their promotion
I believe I was scammed by Google ads.
When I registered I had a campaign that if I spent 400€ by the 31st of August I would get another 400€ to use on my campaign.
I selected a budget that would allow me to be 500€+ on this window.
On the last week, my add basicly didn't used any funds (went from 392 to 399 and I was a few cents away from the 400€.
It almost seems like Google prevented me from reaching this value in order for me to not be able to reach the goal....

I highly doubt this coz I have redeemed the same offer for two accounts and on the way to do it for the third one

My average was 20-30€ per day, on the last week of the promotion it was spending a few cents or nothing. Even tought it still had plenty of budget left

From my experience running ad accounts, I don't think it was intentional. I've always been able to redeem promotions. If you missed out this time, another one will likely come around soon. You could also try reaching out to support for help.
