I call and all they have is a messsage. You can't even leave a voice mail. I remove the rest of my money before they could take it all. I setup it up where once the $50 was over that the add should be oveer. Now they saying that is my faul. My bank is trying to get my money back but I like to know if there are more people out there that this has happen to. I know peope are not happy with people not geting shoes and etc. Any info is great. I put an ad in facebook with a $50 credit and before I knew they took $250 out of me.

I'm glad that those ads are gone though. I wouldn't want to sign up to get something free, then end up having to get a 3 month subscription to something or other to receive said free thing. That's just plain annoying. Interesting. I’m glad that those ads are gone though.

It is pretty obvious that they were scams. I am glad that facebook is more user friendly than add-friendly. As a user I was sick of these ads appearing on my page.

But they're not free at all! I don't mind if they ask for my email, but if they ask for my credit card, now that's a problem. And usually they have these steps that I have to follow. They say that if I follow every step on the list, I could get the free item. But the keyword here is COULD. That means they're not sure if they'll give it to me. So anyway, I think Facebook is doing the right thing with this new guideline. Advertisers need to be honest, and when they say "free" they should give away the item for free.

By the way I have a question for those who submitted ads in Facebook: how are the results? Are you making money? I've heard a mix of good and bad reviews from Facebook advertisers. I want to know if following the strict Facebook ad guidelines is worth it. It seems Facebook really does listen to user feedback.

I've seen lots of "free this", "free that" ads in the past few months, and I've also seen friends joining fanpages that claim to offer free stuff. I never bought it, to be honest. I understand the products are not completely free. You always need to do a bunch of things: register for something, give them your email, buy something, or spread the link to 100 people.

I do agree with tougher restrictions on the so-called "free" or forced-continuity offers. An ad or offer that is not crystal clear to the reader, might be doing it's intended job of getting a click or submission, but many of the "fine-print" offers just feel wrong to me. BTW...Anyone ever succeed in reading the fine print on the car & truck ads on TV?
