Moz Local not updating after G+ and FB are updated
-
Per the FAQ, we updated the client G+ and Facebook address information, but Moz Local still lists the incorrect address information. Any ideas on a time frame when the MOZ listing will update? FAQ's state an hour, but that is not happening in this case.

Thanks! We ended up having to get Google involved to manually validate the listings.

I keep following that process and still get the following error: For security, we require your location to exactly match a verified listing on Google or Facebook. To proceed, please update the listings in your CSV or select a verified match for each listing below.
Both Facebook and G+ have the correct physical address on my admin view of G+ (which shows verified) and Facebook, so I am uncertain why this keeps happening.

Good Morning!
Thanks so much for asking about this:) Any time you need to edit your name, address, phone number or website in Moz Local, there is a set of specific steps that need to be taken in a specific order to push your changes through. Let me share these steps with you here:
First, edit the desired data on your Google+ Local or Facebook Place Page
About an hour later, please log into your Moz Local account click the little cloud icon on the page to download the .CSV file our system has auto-generated for your business.
Edit the desired field in the .CSV, making sure that you hand-type in whatever edit you need to make. We recommend using either a recent version of Excel or Google’s free Google Sheets to edit your .CSV. If you have multiple businesses in the .CSV, you can delete the other rows so that we are only editing the business of your choice.
Save the .CSV and then return to the Moz Local dashboard and upload the .CSV via the big yellow button.
We will then re-validate the listing against Google or Facebook and you should see your edit succeed.
I sincerely hope these steps will be helpful! Please let me know if you have any further questions!
If you run into any trouble and need to have a Help Team member take a one-on-one look at your account, please do contact us through the Help Hub:)

MOZ Local not recognizing listing in ranking - score should be higher
Hello I have used MOZ local for a client in New York City. Since we set up MOZ Local for his practice MOZ keeps showing there is no Facebook page nor a hot frog listing. However both of these listings exist and are correct. Is there a way to show MOZ that these listings exist so the MOZ Rank can show the proper score/accuracy. He wonders why the score isn't higher but there isn't much I can do at the moment. Thanks!

Insider Pages & City Search Update Not Going Through
Hello, I updated our company phone number about 2 months ago and every aggregator updated except Insider Pages and City Search. They both have empty circles and are showing as Inconsistent when opening up the campaign because they have the old phone number. I thought for awhile it would just take some time, but it doesn't seem to be updating at all. Is it possible that it's stuck? A lot of the others changed to half circles, then full. But this one is just sitting as an empty circle. Thanks, Chris

Moz Local Validation
I am trying to list my business under Moz Local. I have filled out all of the documentation and had no errors. However I am stuck on Validation. It says "We were unable to validate the following listings on either Google or Facebook Places." I have checked both my google and facebook pages they are up to date with the most current address. Any ideas where the problem may be?
