How to remove a Google review, step by step
These are the steps to remove a Google review (negative, fake or from a competitor) from your business profile, and what we do for you when Google does not take it down first time. It works the same whether you want to delete one review or remove several at once.
Gather evidence about the review
To remove Google reviews you need evidence: find the review on your profile and save screenshots. Note why it breaks the policies: insults, false claims, unfair competition or someone who was never a customer.
- Screenshot of the review and its direct link
- Profile of the review author
- Evidence that they were never a customer (bookings, receipts, records)
Report it to Google
Flag the review as inappropriate from your business profile in Google Maps or Google Business Profile. Google reviews it, but only takes down some of them.
- In Google Maps or your Business Profile: the Report review option
- Picking the right reason (spam, conflict of interest, offensive content) multiplies your chances of removal
Escalate with legal arguments
When the standard report is not enough and the review is fake or defamatory, the case is not over yet.
- Reinforced review with legal arguments
- Request to Google grounded in your rights
- Bulk report against coordinated attacks
Leave it to RepScan
We analyse every review, prepare the report with the arguments Google accepts and follow up until it is gone.
- You send us the review and we handle everything
- Case follow-up and a reinforced request if needed
- We let you know when it disappears from your profile
Prefer to skip the first three steps? We handle the whole process for you, from the report to the reinforced request, and we let you know when the review is gone.
Remove your Google reviews
Can Google reviews be removed?
Yes, if they break Google policies
Google removes reviews that break its policies (spam, fake content, offensive, conflict of interest or from competitors), but it does not take down a review just for being negative if it reflects a real experience. When a review should go and Google keeps it, the request can be reinforced with the rights it violates.
Which reviews Google removes
- Insults, offensive language or hate speech
- Fake content or profiles with no real activity
- Competitor reviews or conflicts of interest
- Spam, advertising or external links
- Personal data or defamatory content
Which reviews it keeps
- Negative reviews that reflect a real experience
- Criticism of the service, the price or the attention received
- Ratings from real customers, even harsh ones
- Legitimate, well-founded complaints
- Simple differences of opinion with no policy breach
Can Google My Business reviews be turned off?
There is no option to turn off reviews on your Google Business Profile: while the profile is active, anyone can leave one. What you can do is report and remove the ones that break the rules, and look after your reputation by replying to the rest.
How long does it take to remove a Google review?
A review that breaks Google policies usually disappears within a few days of the report. If the request has to be reinforced with legal arguments, it takes longer.
We file the report with Google using the arguments its policy accepts.
Reviews that clearly break its rules are usually taken down within this window.
If Google keeps it and we believe it should go, we reinforce the request with the rights the review violates.
When Google does not remove it: we escalate with legal grounds
Google does not take down every review you report. If it is fake or defamatory and it stays, the case is not over: you still have options to get it removed.

A review that breaks Google policies is usually reviewed within a few days of the report. When the request has to be reinforced with legal arguments the timeline is longer. There is no guaranteed time: it depends on the reason and on Google’s response.
It depends on the case: number of reviews, platform and the work involved (a standard report or a reinforced request with legal arguments). At RepScan we assess every situation before starting so you know the scope with no surprises.
Yes. Our service does not go through the courts: we get reviews taken down by reporting them and managing the case with Google, and when needed we reinforce the request with legal arguments and the rights the review violates.
A spike of negative reviews in a short time usually points to a coordinated attack. We document the pattern and report it as a block, which works better than going case by case.
A review from someone who was never a customer, a former employee for example, can break Google policies for conflict of interest, and that is a valid reason to report it.
From your Business Profile or from Google Maps you can flag it as inappropriate so Google reviews it. If it is not taken down and you believe it should be, we reinforce the request with the arguments and the rights the review violates.
A review can only be deleted by whoever wrote it or by Google. A company cannot delete someone else’s review, but it can report it when it breaks Google policies, and that is how most reviews are removed.
