Fake and malicious reviews are costing Australian businesses real money
Revenue loss is immediate
A single star-rating drop can reduce click-through rates by up to 25%. For businesses that depend on local search, that translates directly to lost bookings, lost enquiries, and lost revenue — starting the day the review goes live.
Google's AI amplifies the damage
Google now uses AI to summarise reviews and generate recommendations. A cluster of negative reviews doesn't just lower your star rating — it trains the algorithm to actively steer customers away from your business in AI-generated results.
Flagging reviews yourself rarely works
Google's automated review moderation rejects the vast majority of business-submitted flags. Without a detailed policy violation case submitted through the right channels, illegitimate reviews stay up indefinitely.
Competitors know the system
Coordinated fake review campaigns are increasingly common across Australian industries. Rival businesses recruit reviewers, use burner accounts, and time attacks to coincide with your peak trading periods — knowing most businesses have no effective response.
This is where CredBolt comes in
Our AI analyses every negative review against 40+ Google content policies, identifies the ones that qualify for removal, and submits detailed policy violation cases through the channels most likely to result in action. You only pay when a review is successfully taken down.
How it works
Three steps to a cleaner Google profile
We audit your reviews

We submit removal requests
For each flagged review, we prepare a detailed removal request citing the specific policy breaches — then submit it through the channels most likely to result in action.

FAQ
Common questions
What types of reviews can be removed?
Reviews that violate Google's content policies — including fake reviews, spam, competitor-placed reviews, off-topic content, defamatory statements, and reviews from people who were never genuine customers. We analyse each review against 40+ policy criteria.
How long does the removal process take?
Most clients see initial removals confirmed within two to four weeks. Timelines vary depending on the volume of flagged reviews and the specific policy violations involved. We handle all communication with Google on your behalf.
Do you need access to our Google account?
Yes, we require you to add our team account to your Google Business Profile. This takes under two minutes and allows us to submit removal requests directly through your profile. We provide step-by-step instructions and only need basic access.
What if a removal request is declined?
We resubmit using alternative policy grounds at no additional cost. If a review ultimately cannot be removed, you pay nothing for that review. Our fee only applies to confirmed successful removals.
Is this legal?
Absolutely. We work entirely within Google's published content policies and review guidelines. We don't post fake positive reviews, manipulate ratings, or use any black-hat techniques. We simply identify policy violations and request enforcement.
Can you remove legitimate negative reviews?
No — and we wouldn't try. We only target reviews that violate Google's policies. A genuine negative review from a real customer expressing their honest opinion is not something we attempt to remove. Our focus is on reviews that shouldn't be there in the first place.
