Update on this thread. So, it was user error. The email that I was using was accidently removed by the from the Business Group. So, false alarm.

Yup, it was a bulk-verified business group too.

I ran into the same issue the other day. Someone was posting legit spam videos from TikTok onto the GBP listing. I ended up reaching out to a GBP representative via live chat and they ended up removing the images/videos in a couple of days. However, during this process, they somehow removed the...

Yes.

Hi People, I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this. I logged into the GBP account and noticed that Google has randomly removed the business group with all the verified listings. This is wild and I'm now reaching out to a GBP rep to see the cause of this. I'll keep everyone...

Hello all, Back with an update, after 3 weeks, 90% of my suspended listings are back. It's a bit irritating since none of the listings broke Google's guidelines in any way. Now I'm getting category updates declined right off the bat. Their GBP algorithm is worse than it has ever been when it...

Hi Team, I've submitted appeals on 03/01/2025 with proof attached for several suspended listings and haven't heard back from support, despite reaching out to them to get a status update. I keep getting general responses from GBP support via email that they are looking into it and that they will...

Based on my experience, no. I've had a domain-level email tied to the business name and would get video verification as the only options offered. I'm just now learning that you can probably request email verification in such scenarios if use their live chat option under "Support" > "Contact...

HI Andrea, I appreciate your feedback! Yeah, I'm still getting this video option, despite me having a domain-level email that is directly tied to business and branding of the website. What strange is that I have another GBP account in where I am managing other locations from a different...

I'm really curious to know if anyone has dug deep into this topic. Some businesses only get the business video option, which can be very time consuming if you don't qualify for the bulk verification method. Thanks in advance!

Hello, I've encountered an issue in where I was making bulk edits to verified properties and some batches lead for several properties to being un-verified by Google. Here's what I consistently changed across all batches with the same account: Business Name Phone Number Website Link I made...

Hello, I've seen several businesses run their website structure this way, where the main website has its services but goes a bit further and creates duplicate pages on a local level in an attempt to rank for hyper-local terms. Keep in mind, that all the services are the same for each location...

That was my initial thought but it was related to the 7-day waiting period. I was able to transfer them under another group with the 'Owner' title.

Yup, that seems to be the answer. It was the 7-day security feature, you'll have to wait for 7 days after accepting ownership of each listing in order to move them into a specific business group.

Yep, tried one at a time, and it still doesn't work. I also double-checked if I had the 'Owner' access as well with each individual listing. I did notice this whenever I clicked on the listing through the GBP profile, it says that its not publicly visibile. It's strange because the listing...
