Weird FB Ad disapproval

Hello,
I created 20 ads on FB like one hour ago and 8 of them was approved, 12 not. The reson of disapproval: The destination URL of your ad either violates Facebook's Advertising Guidelines or could not be reviewed.

I use prosper so for review I set URL directly to offer so Ireland reviewers can see it as well. Offers of course is legit no exit pops and any shit mentioned in Fb Guidelines.

Can anyone tell me wtf ? I alredy resubmitted them again (this same prosper URL) and this time two of ten ads was approved - the rest not because of the same reason (URL).

Thanks in advance

I submitted 2 similar ads and one was disapproved and the other went through. Shortly after, I received a message from Facebook like this:

I have seen the same thing happen. I think if you read other posts, its all about the reviewer and where they are reviewing your ads. Some maybe be international and cannot see your destination page.

This happened to me for a an insurance offer, where they disapproved 20 of my ads, due to the destination url could not be reviewed. All I did was wait an hour and resubmit, hoping that I would get someone else to review, and it was approved.

Just like dating offers too i found, I had already 54 disapproval's, but I did submit something similar before in the past in another fb account so I know they would approve. So i resubmitted last night waited again, and this time 10 / 20 of the dating ads got approved =)

So stay persistent!

Ok, thanks guys. I just resubmitted them again.

One more thing. I have very low suggested bids, whatever the demo is. For example: US, Female 25-30, Single, Interested in men = 0.21-0.34 USD..of course when I bid suggested I don't recieve any impressions. If I switch country it goes down yet..

Anyone noticed similar problem ?

Hey Vitz, yeah no real answer i can give you here. Mix of reviewers, some may have issues seeing your landing page, others might not give it enough time to load. The reviewers are idiots half the time, just have to keep trying

Usually id you bid suggested bid, you'll almost always see traffic, so no idea whats happening there. How long did you give it?

Well, my problem is old. I've always had low suggested bids. When I bid suggested I see little to zero traffic. Yesterday for example, campaign was live like 5 hours (bid $0.6, US, female 30-35, KW targeted, ~200k) and I didn't have any impressions.. So in my case suggested = bullshit.
