Hello @thethakrals
Sorry for your troubles. When you say long time what does that mean? Few days,weeks a month…? Please share exact records and information so that you could be helped accordingly.
Nevertheless,the server does take time to update some points/contributions on Google maps. You need patience to understand that it has maybe millions of points and contributions to update daily. Please give it time. It will eventually update the points.
Happy guiding
Cheers

Hey @thethakrals
I’ll take some time to update your points. Try checking after 24 hrs.
What type of activity do you engage in most? Points are added instantly for photos and videos. Reviews are generally instant too, so long as they don’t get blocked for something that’s against the Terms and Conditions.
Adding roads has an extended approval process. It can take 1 to 89 days for a road segment to be approved. When you reach 90 days without approval, it gets finally marked Not Approved. There is a bit of a disconnect between when you receive emails saying Approved, when the number of roads shown in your profile increases, and when the points for those roads are given.
Just wait a bit more and all will be well.

Which minimum level is required to get any rewards or any gift from Local guide for example the Google Map pin batch or the pair of socks etc like that 
@SholaIB
Also please message me on social media I have few questions too @SholaIB
Hello @thethakrals
There isn’t any stipulated level to receive those rewards/perks. It depends on your geographical region and the availability of the rewards items too. 
Please read this post on rewards.
Sorry I am not available on any social media. You can chat me on telegram or WhatsApp.
Thank you
Cheers

How to check the availability then if it’s not available on my location then it’s all time waste for me
What do you mean? Are you spending time here only for pins and socks? Most of us are here to help make the map better and be of assistance to users. You haven’t done a lot yet, so it might be a bit premature to demand a reward anyway.
At the moment, you have 53 visible photos out of 79 posted, and 30 visible reviews out of 52 posted. the hidden photos and reviews are cause for concern, as Google isn’t likely to reward you with such a large percentage of your contributions being blocked by the system for deviation from the Terms and Conditions.

Hello @thethakrals
There isn’t anyway to check availability of rewards items in your area. Only Google decides that.
My advise to you is don’t contribute to the maps with the mindset set od expecting a physical reward items. If it’s difficult for you to contribute freely and voluntarily,you’ll better not continue in the program. Keep contributing quality and presice information to improve the maps. Maybe you’ll get it someday,maybe not.
Aside socks and pin badge etc,there are lots of other benefits you stand to gain.
- Interactions with others
- improved communication skills
- Even reasonable friendships beyond connect
- …etc.
Happy guiding
Cheers
