Review Management;
Where a business has new ownership, manager and name change.
We have the right to remove reviews that are no longer relevant in the event of a material business change. Not every change to a business qualifies for a review transfer or removal.
Can't remove reviews
Ownership changes can’t remove reviews.
When a business gets a new owner or manager but doesn’t change its name, we don’t remove reviews.
You can use the reply function under your login and clarify any changes or improvements to the services your business/facility or property provides.
Most name changes can’t remove reviews.
When a business makes a minor name change or when a business with multiple locations changes its name, we don’t remove reviews.
Temporary or permanent closure can't remove reviews.
If your business closes temporarily or permanently, reviews remain attached to the closed business. Temporary or permanent closure doesn’t prevent customers from leaving new reviews.
