le Local Service Ads mass policy violation //

Google is sending notices of policy violations to Local Service Ads advertiser. However, it’s unclear whether this is due to enhanced enforcement or an error that caused them to be sent.

The policy notice. The policy notice.

If you click on “view policy issues”, you will be taken to a page that lists your policy violations. However, if you look deeper, it is likely you won’t find any. This screenshot was posted by Crystal Horton on twitter.

This notice is said to have been sent to garage door repair listings. However, I’m not 100% sure that this is true.

Bug or no bug? Ginny, Google Ads Liaison Ginny, is investigating if this is bug or not. Ginny Marvin, Google’s Ads Liaison, posted on twitter last night, around 5:50pm ET, “I do not have an update but the team are looking into it.”

Why we care. For now, if you got this email, please wait and check back to see if Google clarifies the situation. According to the email you received, at least 12 days are left to take action before this becomes an issue with your ads.
