Why does nobody talk about how long ad review really takes?
I launched a new campaign last Tuesday and the ad review status just sat there for 36 hours (no joke). Facebook's support told me it was "standard processing" but I lost two whole days of potential sales. Anyone else run into this wait time killing their momentum? Is there a trick to speed it up that I'm missing?

36 hours is slow, but Facebook's support told me the real issue is your ad content.

Oh come ON with the "two whole days" like it's a tragedy. You launched a campaign last Tuesday and expected INSTANT approval? That's cute. Facebook probably flagged your ads because you didn't set up your pixel right or your targeting is too broad. I've run campaigns where review took 48 hours plus and guess what? My account was fine. The real problem is people rushing to launch without checking their content for policy violations first. If you'd pre-screened your ad copy and images against Facebook's rules you wouldn't be here complaining. Speed up the review? Try not whining and just plan your launch dates around this known delay. But hey, keep blaming the platform instead of your own prep work.
