Hey guys,
For some reason im locked out of google adsense and google aren't being very sympathetic. Are there any decent alternatives to adsense?
Thanks

Google must have detected click fraud to have locked you out.
have you been asking people to click on your ads? eg "click the ads below to support our site"?
Or as fisicx says, if you have been clicking on your own links, this would also trigger it.
One alternative is bidvertiser.com although if you have been committing click fraud, you will be in trouble no matter where you go.
EDIT
appologies, you hadn't posted above when I posted.
If you contact google, then you will be able to sort this out. They might have just identified a hacking attempt.
Did you change your password from a different computer/location than you normally would?

Nope i always do it by the book. Changed the password on this pc. the way they have handled the situation is making me leave no matter what!
