It is a common saying that the internet runs on advertisements, and for the most part, this is true. Ads pay the bills for content creators.
One of the biggest players in this space is Google Ads, a service that’s been with us from as far back as the turn of the millennium.
For the uninitiated, Google Ads is an online advertising platform where advertisers bid to display brief advertisements, service offerings, product listings, or videos to web users.
This platform is responsible for placing ads both in the results of search engines like Google Search and on non-search websites, mobile apps, and even YouTube videos.
Now, it is coming to light that a section of commercial invoices from Google to advertisers for the month of June has been reportedly sent out with a misprinted date.
Reports have it that these erroneous dates range from May 1- June 30, 2021. This is wrong because ideally, they should have read dates between June 1, and June 30, 2021.
Luckily, all the other information on the Google Ads invoices such as the amount to be paid and the billing address all seem to be correct except the date.
It is now coming to light that this Google Ads June invoices with wrong date is a known issue by Google and there is no apparent resolution for this issue.
There is no specific resolution at this time, however, we’ll provide an update in this thread as soon as our Billing team resolves the issue. We appreciate your patience!
