Reviews Paused / Removed-Review Recovery Check
Google is pausing reviews on profiles without naming which one — this check identifies the paused profile, protects the evidence for any legitimate reviews that were removed, and tells you the one correct request to file and what to stop doing until reviews flow again.
Hit with a “reviews temporarily paused” notice or missing reviews? A reviews pause is Google’s temporary protection that stops new reviews from appearing. It is NOT a suspension — the profile stays visible — and only Google can lift it. This check identifies the paused profile, protects the evidence for any legitimate reviews that were removed, and tells you the one correct request to file and what to stop doing until reviews flow again.
What you get
A one-page recovery plan for one Google Business Profile hit by a 'reviews temporarily paused' protection or by removed legitimate reviews. We show you how to identify the affected profile inside your own account (the Reviews-tab warning plus the date new reviews stopped arriving — the pause email itself names no profile), the evidence pack to save that day (the pause email, the Reviews-tab warning, and your rating and review count), the correct protections-review request route and how to file it once per affected profile naming the profile and the removed reviews you can evidence, what to pause while the protection is live (automated review requests to that location), and what not to touch (no replacement profile, no repeated requests while one is open, no big unrelated edits). The plan ends with the resume-safely steps for confirming reviews are flowing again before restarting review requests. This is guidance and a plan only — a pause is Google's temporary protection, only Google can lift it or restore reviews, and no outcome is guaranteed.

How do I find which profile is paused?
The email names no profile, so check each profile’s Reviews tab in your own account for the warning and cross-check the date new reviews stopped arriving.
How long does a pause last?
There is no fixed published duration — a pause lasts until Google lifts its protection. Do not file duplicate requests while you wait.
Can removed reviews come back?
Google sometimes restores legitimate reviews evidenced in a protections-review request, but restoration is never guaranteed, and policy-violating reviews will not return.
Should I keep asking for reviews while paused?
No — pause automated review requests to the affected location until reviews are confirmed flowing again.
