How to Delete a Review You Wrote on Google
Posted by Joy Hawkins
Due to how often I get this question, I’m creating a quick guide to explain how to delete a review you wrote for a business on Google or Google Maps.
- Search for the name of the business and click on the reviews.
- Your review should float to the top. Click on your username.
- This should pull up your profile on Google Maps. Click the 3 dots next to the review you want and click “delete review”.
