Duly noted!
In the case of the Facebook page, it looks like it's not being included in your Moz Local listing because the name on the page isn't a match to the Google+ page which was used to validate your listing. If you were able to change the Facebook name from Detroit Deluxe to Detroit Deluxe Paint Body and Car Restoration, then you should see it included within your listing report.
I'm sorry that you're feeling frustrated with the process. As far as the functionality of the system goes, the general timeframe for updating listings can occur in as little as a day or so, but some of our partners can take up to 8-12 weeks to be fully updated. This is talked about within this list of frequently asked questions on the topic of Moz Local: https://moz.com/local/faq

Thank you for your response. But it did not give me an answer that led to resolving this issue. PLEASE NOTE that i did everything in the response yet no answer as to why Facebook is gone. PLEASE NOTE that the Facebook was originally on there when MOZ did their initial test. ALSO it was added into he social media links as shown in the the image. Also note that Moz talked about making life easy, this program so far has been a pain! 2 weeks to see results? why wouldnt MOZ say that up front? Is it because no one would use it? Please investigate, I was so pumped about this program now i am feeling like it is a mistake and waist of money.

Hi there!
In general, your listing score is simply a representation of how your complete your listing is among all of Moz Local's partners and non-partners. While I would consider it strange that you'd see an immediate change in listing score, it doesn't seem like it could be related to Moz Local's updates because the changes we make usually take a few weeks to propagate.With respect to the Facebook page, there can be a number of reasons why it's not showing up. I'd recommend checking out the 'FAQ' section of this article for some reasons why it may not be visible to Moz Local: https://moz.com/help/guides/local/listing
If you're still encountering issues after taking a look at those factors, then I'm certainly happy to investigate :). I hope this helps! Feel free to let me know if you have any further questions or concerns! Thanks, and have an awesome day!

Multiple Locations + Incomplete "Facebook" Listing
Hi! I am in charge of multiple listings for the same business because they have many offices throughout the US. Upon submitting these different locations on Moz Local, I have now run into an issue where all of the listings are not registering their correct Facebook page. On Facebook I have created separate pages for each location (using their location manager tool), but I am unsure on how to connect this to Moz. I have tried submitting the URL of the Facebook page in the "Advanced" tab in the "edit" area, but this does not seem to solve the problem. Any idea on why this is happening, and if there is an easy fix? Thanks everyone!

How long do Facebook and Google pages have to be published before Moz can verify them?
Hi there. I've checked the forums and have seen similar questions, but couldn't find an answer in them. I have a listing that I imported from my Google My Business account, but it comes up as unverified for both Facebook and Google. Both pages exist, but have only been published for about 3 weeks. Both sites contain the accurate business information and are the appropriate types of pages, so the best I can determine from what I've read in the other posts is that "newly" published Facebook and Google pages may not be able to be verified by Moz Local. So the question is, what is considered "newly published"? The Facebook business page is: https://www.facebook.com/JTBentonConsulting/ The Google+ page is: https://plus.google.com/b/114469171569907148968/+JTBentonConsultingAdamstown?pageId=114469171569907148968&hl=en The name registered for Google My Business is: J T Benton Consulting - Mobile Notary Public Any ideas?

Is there a way to transfer ownership of a Moz Local Listing to another account?
I have a past client who is interested in taking over the management of their own Moz Local account. I've looked through the resource material, but have not found any information on if it is possible to transfer ownership. Has anyone else had experience with this or know a solution? Thanks!
