Weird Google My Business address

[sarkarn]

Hi,

I was working with a client in the MENA region yesterday to help them fix some issues with some of their Google My Business pages and one question that they brought up was the weird format of the address on a particular business listing. Has anyone got any idea why this is being displayed in such a way? Is it a bug?

Listings URL - Decathlon · 8W3J+5X, The Avenues 8W3J+3XV, Shuwaikh Industrial, Kuwait

The address is being displayed as: 8W3J+5X, The Avenues 8W3J+3XV, Shuwaikh Industrial, Kuwait

Screenshot attached. I checked other businesses in the area and in the same mall and they seem to appear fine.

That looks like a plus code. More on that here - Find & share a location using Plus Codes - Android - Google Maps Help

It is usually listed separately from the main address field. Looks like some wires got crossed somewhere. Is it listed in the GMB dashboard? If so, remove it.

If not, contact GMB support - Sign in - Google Accounts
