But what's interesting is that my new ad doesn't turn up in the account's change log. Perhaps that's why it is never getting reviewed. Got another stuck one, for 20 days now.

However, I recently added a new customer and all the ads were showing up as waiting for approval. What had actually happened is that the entire account was under review. In that case I had to call in and get the review fast tracked - after nearly 18 hours of waiting. It would help to understand the review process a little better... I want my customers to get maximum exposure and that means consistent & fast ad approvals.
