How to Delete Google Reviews: Your Own vs Someone Else's

How to delete a review you wrote, and how businesses get other people's reviews deleted by Google.

How to Delete Google Reviews: Your Own vs Someone Else's

Deleting a Google review you wrote

To delete a Google review you wrote, open Google Maps, tap your profile picture, go to Contributions → Reviews, tap the three dots on the review and choose Delete review. It disappears immediately.

Deleting a review someone else wrote about your business

You can't delete it yourself. Only Google can, and only when it breaks policy. The process is in our guide on how to remove Google reviews.

Can a business pay to delete Google reviews?

No one can pay Google to delete reviews. Legitimate removal services like ours build policy cases with evidence. Avoid anyone promising to delete genuine reviews; that isn't possible and can put your profile at risk.

Can the reviewer be asked to delete it?

Yes, you can politely ask a genuine customer to update their review after you've fixed the problem. Never offer money or incentives.

Not sure if your review qualifies?

Contact us and we'll assess whether your review qualifies for removal. It's free and confidential. Call 1300 114 672 or send us the review link through our Google review removal page. We're Australian owned, most cases are resolved within 0–14 days, and it's no win, no fee.
