    There's nothing wrong with the stats. Keep checking back and you'll suddenly seem them updated.

    For some reason, they don't appear to be "live" stats. Every Facebook campaign that I've had has done what you're describing. In some cases, the campaign will be ended (like the daily budget is reached) before the stats finally pop up.

    Be patient and wait. The stats will come ... even if it's not in "real time".

    should my funding source tab look like this?

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1935604/FB2.png

    when i select the "add a funding source" i choose paypal , then , it takes me to paypal account, then to the order summary, i login to paypal acct, then i choose agree and pay, then it bring me back to facebook ad account, and it tells me that
    "There was an error adding this funding source. Please try again." http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1935604/fb3.png

    i think that is why my stats are no showing!

    Any help please?!

    Yup that's it. If Facebook isn't getting paid, then they're not running your ad. Try to pay for something else with paypal to see if it goes through? That way you'll at least know if paypal or Facebook that is screwing up.
