Thanks Linda Googlemybiz sorted it out.

Thanks Linda I?ll try twitter. I permanently closed the location and deleted the GMB account so no more dashboard to access. One interesting outcome was, an earlier merged gmail account with both the GMB/local page and brand page...survived the cull.

Thanks DjBaxter and JonClassyBrain the confusion started long ago when I was setting up the Bands Google account. I created a GMB and local listing and went through the verification process not realising that I didn't need to. In fact, it's better to just have a brand page, gplus and youtube as...

This is getting frustrating, now its listed as open in maps and in google search. How do I get this local listing and knowledge panel removed?
