Can't Change My G+ Pages Address?
-
Our zipcode is wrong on our Google Plus page for one of our offices. Exactly, one month ago I corrected it, but it immediately reverted to the wrong one. Then, I think I read the change can take 4 weeks...we'll it still hasn't changed. Two weeks ago, someone from Google Places even called and I told him to change it manually, he said he would...still not changed.
What can I do to get this zip code corrected?
Thanks,
Ruben

It is better to first remove that information and once update then try adding new details.
If you want to delete any specific information that you’ve added to your page, follow these steps:
- Make sure you're using Google+ as your page.
- Choose Dashboard from the left hand drop-down menu and click Manage this page for the page you’d like to edit.
- Click Edit page or Edit business information (for local pages) in the upper right hand corner of the screen
- Click the section that you want to change. Instead of updating the information, click the X to remove it.
- Select Save.

It does helps a lot. I was under the impression it was only supposed to take 30 at the most, but now I know. I appreciate it!

Hi Khem,
That's an interesting tip. I never heard that before.
Thanks,

Good discussion here! One more tip: be sure you're not dealing with a duplicate page:)

Thanks Miriam! I'm not...this time. But, it's always good to know you are looking out.
Best,

Google called today! We finally got it squared away. So, it took about 5 weeks for me, in case anyone wants a reference point for later.
Thank you all, once again!
Have a fantastic weekend,
Ruben
