Google has updated the verification issues support form inside Google Business Profile. The update makes it easier for businesses to select the exact problem they faced while trying to verify a listing, instead of choosing a generic option. The form matters most to anyone verifying listings in volume. Our guide to bulk verification walks through the route for multiple locations.
This change was spotted by Claudia Tomina, who shared the update on LinkedIn:
She explained that Google has revamped the verification issue options inside the support form. According to her, the form now reflects real verification problems businesses face, rather than pushing everyone into the same general category.
With the updated form, businesses can now choose more specific issue types when reporting verification problems. This helps Google better understand why verifications are failing across different listings. As a result, Google can collect clearer data and hopefully reduce repeated verification loops in the future.
Claudia also shared that this improvement should lead to fewer broken verification attempts and a smoother process overall.
In the long run, this update should benefit both business owners and Google. Business owners can explain their issues more clearly, while Google can resolve verification problems faster and more accurately.
