Hi Vit, Thanks a lot for providing the sequence, I can now see why many people get stuck at the signup process. Here's an explanation, and a workaround to get this fixed:
>From your explanation, my conclusion is that you don't have an MCC account, so sequence (1) will fail for sure. So sequence (2) is the right sequence to follow. But that will fail when you choose the "I have ..." option, since you are creating a second account when creating an MCC and so you need a second google login for the MCC. You cannot provide your existing gmail login here, since you already have it associated with your existing AdWords account. The easiest workaround is to - Create a new gmail account for use with your MCC alone - Follow sequence (2), - Use the new login in sequence (2), after picking "I have..." option. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions. I'll ask our tech writers to clarify the documentation appropriately. Cheers, Anash P. Oommen, AdWords API Advisor.
