Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I agree with Gareth, it's extremely difficult to impossible in many cases to have these backlinks removed from other sites.  I had the same thing happen to a company and have spent countless hours emailing websites and their hosts with little success and to this day have probably only had 10-20% of them removed.  I've had to force myself to forget about them and simply try harder to achieve high quality backlinks to neutralize the negative effects of the bad ones. Needless to say, it's a sucky position to be in... be careful about hiring an SEO company.  There are more bad ones than good.

When did you set your campaign up Barbara? It tends to update once a week as the crawls happen. Regards, Andy
