I'm using a test account created as described here https://groups.google.com/d/msg/adwords-api/k-4aaBX_hBU/ODh6LycARMAJ

And I'm doing TDD, with a lot of my tests creating new child accounts under my main test MCC.

I've run into this error:

       [ManagedCustomerServiceError.TEST_ACCOUNT_LINK_ERROR @ operations[0]; trigger:'TEST_ACCOUNT_LINK_ERROR']

And in Adwords I see I've reached 100 child accounts. Is that the max number of accounts under a test MCC? Is there a way to delete those accounts?

Thank you!

Hi Rachel,

Test accounts have a limit of 100 child accounts under the MCC account. Unfortunately, the ManagedCustomerService does not support the REMOVE operation, so you will not be able to delete accounts using the API. You will need to use the UI.
