Two months back, I received an email with the subject “Google AdSense: One of your payments accounts was cancelled” on one of my websites associated with the Google Adsense Program. I was very disappointed by this unfortunate Google Adsense suspension. Because I never bought any traffic from outsiders and I do not click my ads. My entire hard work and the time I spent to build this website is wasted by this suspension.
Not only me, Google disabled many blogger’s websites for the same reason. Suppose you felt like Google incorrectly disabled your AdSense account, you can submit an invalid activity appeal form to re-activate your AdSense account. I have filled out this form and successfully got my Adsense account back.
You should complete this form with the proper information to get back your account. Otherwise, Google will reject your appeal form and you can’t get your account back.
Do you want to know how I filled out my invalid activity appeal form? Don’t worry I have shared the entire information which will help to fill out this form.
Note: I haven’t purchased any traffic from outsiders or I never clicked my ads or I never asked my friends to click ads. So, Google accepted my appeal form and gave my account back. Based on your activity, your chance of getting your account back will change.
