I’ve been noticing a huge spike in suspensions recently.

Lately, I’ve been noticing a significant spike in Google Business Profile suspensions across multiple accounts I manage. These suspensions seem to be happening more frequently than usual, and I haven’t identified any clear pattern yet. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?

I have. It seems almost every new GBP we create gets suspended within a couple of days and we've seen some suspensions after edits. In each case, I've appealed the suspension with documentation, and the GBP has gotten reinstated, and I didn't make any changes to the GBP info.

Same here. I managed to get a few GBPs reinstated, and I’m still waiting for a response on the remaining ones. However, they were suspended randomly, without any changes being made.

Yes. The humans @G mustve released updates to feed their AI algos. Five smb's approached us about their suspended gbps. 2 reinstated, 3 more to go.

This month, I’ve seen a noticeable increase in clients needing reinstatement for suspended GBPs, which likely means the Spam and Quality Team has made some tweaks to the algorithm.
