Deleting a duplicate google places listing
-
Hi i currently have duplicate Google places listings for a store. One of the Google Places listings is mine (which is correct) and the other is a listing which someone else put up (which is wrong). Which is currently sending customers to the wrong location.
I tried to claim the listing by clicking:
If you own this place, claim it and edit it directly
Which takes me to this page:
This Listing Is Unavailable
You may only access listings that you own. If you created this listing with a different Google Account, please log in to that account and try again. If you've deleted this listing, you may create it again in Google Places.
Is my own option at this stage to leave a comment with additional details use:
IMAGE ATTACHED
And select 'this is a duplicate listing'?
I would imagine this would take sometime, and i need it changed as soon as possible.
Any suggestions?

Hi MediaCom,
You could try calling Google's new phone number for data issues to see if that gets you faster action:
It may not yield results, but if you haven't tried it yet, it could be worth a try!

You are looking at a probable 6 - 8 weeks before this entry gets taken down from previous experience. Leave a review stating the correct address of your business, and hope for a quick turn around time on this particular support issue.
Unfortunately not much else you can do.

Google Merchant Center Feed Disapproved - Data Quality Good - No Warnings
I have noticed Google Merchant Center has been making many changes of over the last month. Feeds can now be optimized for certain product attributes. The dilemma currently is that I have a Google Merchant Center Data feed that shows zero warnings and that the data quality is good. Unfortunately, the entire feed has been disapproved. Across many other websites that I noticed the same issues, I have been able to fix all warnings and the feeds are taken perfectly. This one sites issues are eluding me. Anybody have any suggestions or experience dealing with this problem? Possible issues I have looked into but could be affecting feed. Merchant Center Guidelines have been reviewed multiple, multiple times and here is what I have found. 1. Website has limited duplicate content taken from distributors product listings (I have fought a unending battle with site owner to make all product content original) 2. Refurbished Products Issue: The sites feed has listed all products as "new". I found some of the product content in the site had "refurbished" listed. The guidelines state that products must be listed & marked as refurbished in the feed. To overcome this issue I disabled all refurbished products and resubmitted the feed. This did produce a good approved data feed.
