Answer 1

I had exactly the same issue a couple of months ago and I contacted Microsoft and this is their answer:

Some region may not display and ad due to the region not having an ad available.

Generally the US region has large ad inventory so this is generally a good region to test your ad units.

Perhaps, you have the same issue.

Answer 2

Is your App published and available in the store? Sometimes it will take 1-2 days and then it will show ads by real units. Please wait for a while.

Answer 3

This is normal, the fill rate is very low (not many companies pay for having their ads shown on Windows Phone). Make sure you enabled auto refresh and wait. Try navigating to another page and back. For me an ad usually appears after a few minutes.
