DEADLINE_EXCEEDED error using LocationCriterionService

[chris . spadanuta]

We are getting a DEADLINE_EXCEEDED error trying to lookup (zip code) 
locations using the AdWords LocationCriterionService.

At first, it seemed like something harmless and we should just retry again 
in a few minutes and I even found this error listed on the AdWords site:
https://support.google.com/adwords/editor/answer/1106420?hl=en
...but the retries do not seem to be succeeding.

Can you give an explanation for what is happening here and how we can fix 
it?
