How to Remove Fake Reviews in Australia (Trustpilot & Beyond)

How to Remove Fake Reviews: What's Actually Possible

Every major review platform bans fake reviews, so a review from someone who was never a customer can be removed — on Trustpilot, Google, Facebook, Glassdoor or TripAdvisor. What platforms won't do is act on a complaint alone. They act on documented cases that point to the exact guideline breached.

Fake Reviews That Qualify for Removal

  • Fake reviews — the reviewer never had a genuine experience with your business
  • Competitor or coordinated attacks — patterns of negative reviews from linked accounts
  • Defamatory statements — false claims of fact presented as true
  • Incentivised or bought reviews — including review-bombing campaigns
  • Personal information or harassment in the review content
  • How to Remove a Trustpilot Review

    Trustpilot's Content Integrity Team removes reviews that breach their guidelines. You can report a review from your business account, but Trustpilot's tool asks the reviewer to verify their experience first — and fake reviewers routinely supply fabricated "evidence", so the review stays live. Escalation with a properly structured case — evidence, guideline references and documented account patterns — is what gets results.

    How to Remove Fake Google Reviews

    Fake Google reviews breach Google's fake-engagement policy. Flagging them in your Google Business Profile is the first step, but removal usually depends on proving no booking, transaction or visit ever took place. See our full guide on how to remove Google reviews.

    The Simple Way: Our Fake Review Removal Service

    All you have to do is contact us and send the review link or your profile. We assess the review together with you to confirm it qualifies under the platform's guidelines. If it qualifies:

  • We document the evidence and guideline breaches
  • We manage the removal case directly with the platform
  • We escalate and follow up until it's resolved
  • You pay only once the review is gone — no removal, no fee
  • Get Your Fake Review Assessed Free

    Send us the review for a free assessment. We'll confirm whether it qualifies and exactly how we'd approach the removal — no obligation, no upfront cost.

    Reviews are typically removed successfully; however, platform decisions are outside our control and we do not take responsibility after removal. We maintain a 98% success rate for removals.
