Latest Harry Potter Movie Facebook Poll - Need Help!

Hey all, i'm trying to do a poll on facebook for the new harry potter movie but they disapproved all my ads. Are polls not allowed on facebook?

Can anyone help me think of better headlines / different angle?



Ive tried headlines like:

Go See Harry Potter Yet?

Harry Potter fans voice your opinions! Did you see it yet? We want to know. Click Here!

----

Go See Harry Potter Yet?

Were you shocked when you saw ending the the last Harry Potter movie? We want to know. Click Here!

...Argh Facebook!!!

Bait and switch to something related i.e a blog with news of harry potter.

They dont like polls or the like

News blog with poll type ad? they'd probably disapprove for inconsistency. But... it might be worth a shot.

^^^ what the baconator said. If your LP promises a 'prize' then FB requires your ad to list the details (terms/conditions) required to obtain that prize. I'm kinda hesitant to advocate bait & switching or cloaking.. but if this was my campaign (keyword there is IF), i'd probably just submit a basic 'Yes' or 'No' poll askin if they'd seen the movie or not. Then I would (hypothetically, of course) bait & switch or cloak to the lander you showed above. Or maybe add a lightbox after the user votes that offers 2 or 3 'prizes' for their participation (which are just linked to yer submit offers).
So, basically, i'd create a duplicate poll page without the 'Win a Walmart Gift Card!' & without the timer.. Then give that to the approval team.
Just my .02

ya you don't have to bait and switch....I will just send them to a page after they vote....on that page you can push the giveaway(pop up, lightbox, etc)......fb will never chk it cuz its not on the first page.....and you shouldn't have any trouble getting it approved and you can keep your account safe....most cases anyways.....if you wanted to be super safe you can cloak off the lp.....

Ok so I removed all mention of the Gift Card, Timer & availability. (Basically everything above the "Did you see the final harry potter opening night" Headline)

And resubmitted the ads. This is what I got back:




Subscription fees are never disclosed in any of our ads... that means they could just flat out deny everything now.

I guess maybe ill try a new offer.

polar they hate any shite with radio buttons, they always assume that they are quizzes. 80% of the time you get the above, seriously i just send it to a blog with the news post related to the ad i.e Harry potter night
