Today when I woke up Facebook had spend under a dollar when they normally would have spend hundreds. I cannot figure out why, all my ads are active, my ad account is not disabled, I didn’t have a billing problem. Does anyone have an idea as to what is happening?  

Answer 1

Try force the bid cap to manual

@saturable I don’t use manual bidding

@desma Just make Some test

@saturable Oh thought you said I should turn off manual bidding, I can test that, but I doubt it works

Answer 2

Had that issue with an ingoing lead gen campaign. Checked and double check everything. No bid cap, same budget, same ad, same audience. Just refused to spend. Since i hadnt have the time to ask FB to resolve it, i duplicate the campaign and Voila! Works. I help the old campaign just in case it miraculously rise up from the dead.

@heger hmm, kind of annoying to have to duplicate my campaign and lose some optimization. But if it whats working then I may have to try it

Answer 3

Thanks for the suggestions everybody. Not sure why but my ads just started spending now, it was probably just some kind of error
