Upgraded Location extension visibility

[GDZ]

Example: we created 2 upgraded feed-based account-level location extensions. My account has 2 campaigns. So via API we assigned extension 1 to campaign 1, extension 2 to campaign 2. Campaigns are active and running.

 

But... say a bit later we discovered that extension 2 was not approved (say address was all wrong or whatever). What is going to happen to campaign 2? Will it show extension 1 (because it is account-wide)? No extension at all? 

Thank you!

Hello,

If an extension is disapproved, all associated ads will not serve until the issue that caused the disapproval is resolved. It shouldn't just pick another extension to use in its place.

Wait a minute :)

If say I have an account with just one campaign, if location extension is disapproved, why ads will not serve? Why not show ads without location extension? 

AdWords do not show location extensions every time anyway...

Thank you,
