Google Pushing The AdWords Credit Card On Advertisers

Google AdWords Business Credit CardGoogle recently got into the credit card business and they expanded the program recently.

A WebmasterWorld thread has one advertiser claiming a Google sales person called him yesterday and aggressively tried influencing him to sign up with an AdWords credit card. He said the sales pitch was way over top. He wrote:

I just got a call from Google trying to push a 'free' (11.9% APR) credit card on me for use with AdWords.

The guy on the phone was very pushy I had to tell him 3 or 4 times that I didn't want another bloody credit card.

Are things really that bad at Google?

Did you get a call from Google selling you their AdWords credit card? Did you have the same experience?

I have a feeling Google isn't making these calls but the banks are.
