Frequently asked questions
Still unsure? Call 1-866-275-6645.
How much does Google Business Profile reinstatement cost?
Our fee is a $500 flat fee per profile.
How long does reinstatement take?
Most cases take a few days to a few weeks. The biggest factor is how quickly you can send us the information Google asks for. Google’s own review time also varies from case to case.
Can I talk to someone today?
Yes. Book a same-day call online, or call 1-866-275-6645 during business hours (Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM Eastern).
What do you need from me?
Access to the suspended profile, any suspension notice from Google, your business registration or licence, proof of address, and photos of your storefront, signage, vehicle or equipment. The sooner we have these, the sooner we can appeal.
Can you guarantee my profile will be reinstated?
No one can guarantee it, because Google makes the final decision. We review your case first and tell you honestly whether reinstatement is realistic before we start.
Should I create a new profile while mine is suspended?
No. A new profile for the same business is treated as a duplicate and can make the suspension harder to reverse. Fix the cause and appeal the original profile instead.
Will I get my reviews back?
When a suspended profile is reinstated, its existing reviews normally come back with it. A new profile starts with none, which is another reason to appeal rather than start over.
