Right my experience with adsense..

Started a site which was given to me by a friend. Thought why not, Set it up. did a redesign and put google ads on. However i sent many emails to goole asking if i can put them on etc making sure i following the TOS.

Everythings fine, i got a reply which i still have stating its ok to put ads on that site.

My balance went upto over $120 then i got my pin. Sound all good ???

Then i get banned for "being connected to a previous account". No idea where this came from and i have never had a account with adsense before, I have emailed google a number of times and no reply from them.

I think they are too big for there own good. They could of at least replied to me stating whats goin on..

I'm sad that happened to you. Thats probably because of the website's old owner getting banned. You should have confirmed with Google before using your adsense on that particular site (If you already did it, you can use it as proof in reinstatement email). You can now try other alternatives of Adsense like Clicksor, Bidvertiser etc.

yea it is probably because the old owner of the site used adsense.

I would never buy a website and put adsense on it if the website did not already have adsense on it.
If you see a website that has good traffic and the owner does not have adsense on it, you have to question whether or not this site was banned from adsense.
