    Is there any easy way of contacting Google (e-mail) with regard to correcting errors on google maps. I have tried the self report feature several times to no avail. :mad:

    1. On your computer, open Google Maps . Make sure you're signed in.
    2. In the top left, click Menu Send feedback Edit the map.
    3. Follow the instructions.
    4. Click Submit.

    I have been submitting it that way. I guess they are just ignoring the feedback. :p
    It’s annoying as I noticed recently an auctioneer and a local cycle group referencing this incorrect placename. Well its more the case of the correct placename out by about 10 miles. Reminds me of a problem they had in San Francisco https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/02/technology/google-maps-neighborhood-names.html

    I must be blacklisted too then as I'm not having any success submitting feedback this way either :( Granted, my feedback was far from trivial to fix, but nonetheless....
