FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Unfair or misleading reviews can cause measurable damage to your business. Here you will find clear answers on review removal, legal context, timelines, and how our process works.
How long does review removal take?
Initial platform feedback often arrives within 24 to 48 hours. More complex cases take longer and may require stronger evidence or follow-up submissions.
How is pricing structured?
Deletix is built around transparent case review and a success-oriented model. The core principle is simple: payment is due only when there is a real result.
info General
Can Google reviews really be removed?
expand_more
Yes. Under certain conditions, online reviews can be removed. Deletix evaluates each review for violations of Google policies and prepares structured submissions where false factual claims, abusive content, or lack of real customer contact are involved.
Is it legal to have reviews removed?
expand_more
Yes. Removing unlawful or policy-violating reviews is legal when it is based on official platform rules. Deletix works strictly within those rules and assesses cases against the same standards used by the platforms themselves.
Why are reviews so important for my business?
expand_more
Reviews shape online perception before a customer ever speaks to you. They signal trust and reliability and have a direct effect on conversion and lead generation. Even a single unjustified 1-star review can reduce enquiries noticeably.
gavel Removal Process
How long does the removal process take?
expand_more
Many platforms respond to well-supported requests within 24 to 48 hours. More complex cases can take longer. Deletix documents each step and keeps track of the platform response throughout the process.
What types of reviews can be removed?
expand_more
The strongest categories usually include:
• abusive or degrading language
• fake or purchased reviews
• demonstrably false factual claims
• reviews without real customer contact
• defamation, threats, or hate speech
• competitor-related review abuse
• repeated reviews from the same person
• abusive or degrading language
• fake or purchased reviews
• demonstrably false factual claims
• reviews without real customer contact
• defamation, threats, or hate speech
• competitor-related review abuse
• repeated reviews from the same person
What happens if the platform rejects the request?
expand_more
If a platform rejects the request, we reassess the case and determine whether:
• a second structured submission is justified,
• additional supporting evidence can be added, or
• the review is likely compliant after all.
The goal is to avoid blind repetition and focus only on steps that still make sense.

Can older reviews also be removed?
expand_more
Yes. The age of a review is usually not decisive. Even reviews that are several years old can still be challenged if the content itself is problematic.
payments Pricing
What does the service cost?
expand_more
The model is built to reduce risk. There are no upfront fees, no hidden costs, and no obligation. The case is reviewed first, and payment is due only when there is actual success.
Should every negative review be reviewed?
expand_more
Not necessarily. Some critical reviews can even appear authentic. The key question is whether the review violates rules or causes disproportionate damage to the profile. Deletix helps distinguish between the two.
lock Security & Discretion
Who has access to my data?
expand_more
Your data is handled confidentially. Deletix does not share information with third parties unless specific details are required by the platform to review the case. Documentation is handled in line with strict data-protection standards.
Does Deletix work with lawyers?
expand_more
Deletix is not a law firm. We primarily work with platform rules and structured moderation procedures. In complex cases, we can point to trusted legal partners, but many review issues can be handled successfully without legal escalation.
Questions that appear most often in Google and AI search
Which reviews are easiest to challenge?
The strongest cases usually involve fake reviews, false factual claims, abusive language, no real customer contact, or review abuse linked to competitors.
Should every 1-star review be removed?
No. Not every negative review is harmful or removable. The key question is whether it violates rules or disproportionately damages the profile.
Can older reviews still be removed?
Yes. Older entries can still be removed if the content is problematic. Age alone does not protect a review from moderation or challenge.
Who benefits most from this service?
Especially local and trust-sensitive businesses that depend on Google Maps, local rankings, and public reputation signals for new enquiries.
