Google Maps

We have made numerous attempts to resolve incorrectly drawn roads on our properties as follows:

4274 Maryborough Biggenden Rd, Aramara QLD 4620 - Driving directions are sending people through non-existent tracks at the back of the property.

Aside from the wrongly identified tracks, the main problem is the road leading from the house to Route 86 stops short and therefore is not linked.

4275 Maryborough Biggenden Rd, Aramara QLD 4620 - Driving directions are sending people through non-existent tracks at the back of the property.

Aside from the wrongly identified tracks, the main problem is the road leading from the house to Route 86 has a section marked as a walking track when is is really a road.

Desired outcome: Remove the non-existent tracks and properly link roads from both properties to Route 86.

Good Morning,

Name - Andrew Byres

I have been trying to receive admin rights for account [protected] for the past 3 months, I have completed the required txt files with evidenced ownership for the domains and sorted all the bits that were needed.

This has still not been completed by the team your end. Naturally I have started web chats to find out what is going on, they are now not responding to me at all. I have emailed at least 6 times with no response.

I then tried to call Google to discuss and sort this issue, as yet I have not successfully managed to get a number where I can speak to someone, below is the current chat line transcript which you can clearly see I am getting no response:

Thank you for contacting Google Ads chat support. You are connected to Ramandeep, It would be a pleasure assisting you with your query.
Hi there!
Ramandeep Singh · 9:57 AM
I have been trying to access admin rights for my account for 3 months and I am getting nowhere
yesterday I did a chat where the chat person ignored me the whole time. I have emailed you, called you, and I have received nothing from you for the last 2 weeks. can you help please
Hello
hello
hello
This is ridiculous, can somebody please answer me. I am going to call the UK head office to complain
Hello
10:05 AM

I am finding this really difficult to believe that google acts this way! This team is causing my business a massive amount of stress and is now damaging our ability to grow with google Ads. We may not spend much money with you (£7, 000 per month) but we are still customers and this is not the way we should be treated. This has damaged our efficiency and ability to track our campaigns and therefore we are wasting thousands of pounds for every week this continues.

I will attempt to attach the email chain in which you will clearly see I am being ignored.

Good Morning,

Please can you get in touch with me. This is taking far too long, I am yet to hear anything from you since the 25/05/2021.

You are causing serious damage to our business at the moment. The UK phone line does not work, the chat online are pretty useless also.

I expect more from google, massively let down by you

Google Bosch Canada- Home appliance LTD

I had the worst experiences of the service on 8thJun 2021.
I ordered a services to have my Dryer checked. I was told and booked appointment for 8thJun. She said the service should completed by 15 min. The service call was $ 139.00 and every 15 min. was $45.00 . The technician called on the 8th but stayed only 15 min. without telling us what was wrong, and without telling us how much was the the part and went ahead changed and told us the charge was $ 301.00. I was shocking to learn about the charged but I was engaged with a virtual meeting so my husband just gave him the credit card. then he charged and left .But when I got my email I saw the charge came through my card was $391.45 . The technician did not leave us any invoice at all. I called him immediately and was giving a different amount and we asking he should let us know before he changed any part. My dryer is working at the time . I was so shocked about the part need to replace after I was charge. When I called Bosch Center back and I was promised the Manager or Supervisor will retune my called in 48hrs but a week gone by no one called me. I finally got the invoices on 10th Jun by customer services and the timing which they indicated was from 1pm to 2pm that was so incorrected.
He showed up at our door at 12:30 pm and finished at 12:45pm and done the paper worked and completed by 12:50pm I got my email receipt at 12:54pm.
You wanted to talk to the customer service but they are all on the company side. . I was told any one want to change something they should inform the client first about the product and the amount. is up to the client if they want to change or not, and the invoice should be gave out at the time of the job was completed . I felt I am being cheated. The dryer is still not drying my clothes. The problem is not fixed . Worst nightmare.

Google Google Play

On 5/12/2021 Google Play billed my debit card for $5 and then on 5/13/2021 Google Play billed 100 times for $5.00. Total: $505.00! It took an hour and half for them to charge it every 7 sec to get there.
Filed for refund and they stated that due to prior history with the merchant it is denied. When I looking at the google account there is NO record of these $5.00 charges and they weren't going to tell me over chat who the vendor was. When you look at the account, not one charge was even number since they collected tax. These charges were even $5.00
There is NO phone number available to talk to a person due to COVID. The forms for fraud does not allow for detailed explanations or documentations that I wanted to send.
When I chatted with a representative they said it was escalated but then when I chatted again the next rep said I needed to fill out another refund form. I asked for a supervisor and they said he will contact me 24/48 hours thru email which I've haven't received.

Desired outcome: Refund

Google Trading platform

I got contacted by QuantBitex.com and the employ there convinced me to make first a deposit of 250 dollars and then 1000 dollars link or something like that, it's been two months since I am asking for my money back, and they just change the account manager or postpone me forever until I get bored and forget about the money, that feels like a fake site to me and I don't what this to happen to anybody else, I know it's not lots of money, but if they do this to 1500 people a month they are gathering something and messing with peoples life, I don't see that as good business for Google in the future. Unfortunately there is not much I can do about my money, but I am nagging them every day and making complaints everywhere I can in order to stop this abuse of people that just try to get a little air in life and this kind of business takes advantage of vulnerable people, besides there is no entity that deals with this kind of things from what I know, but I will not stop, I heard of this thing, skeems, but I never believed that to be true, they can let you but naked you just like that with no remorse and no law about it, I will not stop and I will go public with this until I stop or regulate this skeemers!

Google Google account

Google keeps insisting my account should be connected to the UAE as that is supposed to them my home country.

I have asked several times to correct this but their answer is that after analysis of the data, they keep my account to be connected to UAE.

I have never been in UAE I have never been even close to UAE, I have never been in the middle east at all.
I have never been more south than France for that matter.

My IP address has been 99.9% of the Time Swedish.

Even the servers that I use with my VPN are always in Sweden or incidentally in Canada or US.. depending on geo-restricted websites I like to visit.

How on earth is is possible that my account is being associated with UAE?

Facebook had the same problem... hence the currency my account works with is also UAE.

Desired outcome: Allowing users to correct their country of residence themselves.

Google Unauthorised debits

There are ongoing debits on my statement from google. These small random amount happen spasmodically twice, sometimes thrice monthly. On checking with google no purchases have been made. On checking with my bank they say I must inform google. It's like a vicious circle. What must I do when it's obviously a scam?

I have read such a scam exists. https://www.complaintsboard.com/google-fraudulent-charges-on-my-credit-card-c855117 Here are hundreds of similar complaints/reviews.

I hope this helps to recover everyone's money.

Thank you.

Desired outcome: Desired outcome that Barclays Bank reverse payments of these amounts and block whoever is doing this.
