Re: Issue with posting the € symbol via the API

[Josh Radcliff (AdWords API Team)]

Hi Ben,

Without the request I can't be 100% positive, but could it be that you are 
including repeated punctuation such as ".." in your ad text?

If that's not it, you can send your request and response *only to me* by 
clicking "Reply to Author" and I'll investigate further.

Thanks,
Josh, AdWords API Team
