Need help with google places
I need help with google places (or google local I guess) I have a client whose business had recently moved. I claimed his old listing, verified the listing by phone (I guess because they could call the phone # that was there) and updated it with new address, pics and description.
It's been several weeks now, Google has updated the description and pictures, but still shows the old location if you try to Google the business. When I go to the listing and click edit this page/listing, it shows the correct location.
So basically it has the correct location on the back end, but Google has not actually updated it as far as search results go.
Any one has any idea on how to rectify this situation other than just making a new listing with the new location?
I see when I try to edit location it says "Note: if you change the address additional varifications by phone or mail are required" But I don't see how to actually trigger those additional varifications or anything.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am stuck with this problem and it's really annoying. Since my only explanation is that Google is just being slow to update the address (but it's been weeks) which isn't what my client wants to hear.
