Google Maps - wrong road name - reported a few times

    I am in Dublin 15 and the name of a nearby road on Google Maps was changed incorrectly in August. I reported the error, and the correct name, in late August. I got the auto acknowledgement but it was never fixed.

    I have reported it two times since.
    A resident on that road said that it is causing problems with deliveries as the road cannot be found. He has also reported it to Google Maps.

    Every other fix that I have reported has been changed. I generally point to OpenStreetMap.
    For my last report I said that StreetView would confirm my report.

    Does anyone know anyone in Google Maps that could push the fix through?

    There used to be some people on the ILUG (Irish Linux Users Group) and on #linux irc.linux.ie/linux IRC who joined/work for Google. Perhaps it might be worth asking them if they know how to deal with the issue or have any advice.
