Google places rejected

[AlanMosley]

google has rejected a few listing i have for certain businesses, i have read the guidlines and I am well inside them.

It does say that if business name is changed you need to re-verify, but does not allow you to do so.

I think google have lost their way, they should stop building operating systems and electric cars and get their web site sorted out.

Alan,

It is hard to tell hear if you are asking a question or not. If it is a question, give a bit more detail and maybe someone in the community can help. Our company does a lot with Places so would be happy to assist if possible.

Hi Alan

To change your business name (or address) you have to verify by mail or phone. (I am assuming you have received your pin number and are able to edit your details??)

Have you tried contacting Google using the 'help' link at the top right of the GooglePlaces page.

Like Robert says it isn't totally clear but I hope this helps.

GooglePlaces are great so perservere!!

Sorry went off into a bit of a rant, I guess i wanted to know if others have expirenced this, and if they solved the problem.

This has happended only recently, and it has happened to many of my listings.
some opf them did not fit guidlines, but others do, one in perticular i can not find anything wrong.

As i stated, it does say that a change of busines name need re-verification, but it does not allow me to do so.

THanks mate,
no i have not contated yet as i doubt that will be quick,
I i just answered Rob, i cant re-vwerify it has no link, yet others do.

I just looked for the help link and noticed that my whole account had been supended, i need to fix all listing before reactivating. did not see it.
I guess you deserve to be marked answer, as you led me to find the problem

HI Alan

Sorry you are having troubles - I assure you, you are not alone. I too help companies.

I am glad it was of some help - as I say persevere - it is worth it, and thanks for the 'tick'

Let's know how you get along.

[AlanMosley]

I fixed all problems and requested to be re-activated, and it told me it will take several weeks.

Thing is, because a few listing had problems all my clients have lost their listings for several weeks

Hi Alan

Really sorry to hear that

I set up all my clients on different accounts so as to minimise risk of this type of thing.

What you could try (perhaps for a less important GooglePlace / client). Set up a new ID and then go in via a search on GooglePlaces and see if you can take over the listing. Worth a try perhaps.
