Google has confirmed that the new measures to filter out unlawfully obtained local reviews have gone too far. In the coming weeks, Google will work hard to restore the policy-compliant reviews.
Google has indicated that too many reviews have been removed due to the adjusted measures. More than initially expected. They have closely monitored the feedback and acknowledge that the changes have had many negative effects on certain accounts. Currently, Google is working to automatically restore the issues and will adjust the policy as soon as possible.
If your review is not published within a few weeks, it is possible to have an employee review it. Please note that some reviews will not be restored because they do not comply with the policy.
