Thread: Adwords: "time zone & currency can't be changed"

Last night I set up a Google Adwords account for one of my clients and had to, like usual, choose a time zone and currency setting. I then had to explain to the client that it cannot be changed - so he should choose wisely.

I have always wondered why Google gives the message: "Your time zone and currency settings can't be changed after you setup your account." Why? What if I move to another country - which people actually do in the real world. I don't get this idiotic rule of theirs...Does anyone know why?

I also found it very annoying not to be able to change our timezone and currency, even though I worked with tons of adword listings, I haven't still figure it out.
