Hello,
I’ve been doing maps for years, level 7.
Yet I have never been offered any perks! My son started last year he got a pair of socks. In the support it says to check your email settings, everything is ok.
So is there a way I can receive my missed perks which I could have earned? A 1Tb update , socks???idk, pls?
Thx
Hi DarrenCh! Google does provide perks for different Local Guides levels and other ideas surrounding us local guides. I’m so sorry you didn’t receive Google socks. Always make sure to check your emails and spam too for perks still needing to be excepted. Also, from my own experience with Google Local Guides, I have been offered extra storage space in Google One, free training credits to Google Cloud, access to discounts, Coursera classes, 1 on 1 mentoring, early access to new apps, and a number of perks. Googling around Google search has usually led me to awesome perks. Hope this helps! 
Bonjour à vous. Je vous encourage à poursuivre démarches et bonnes photos ou courtes vidéos pour Google et sa communauté. De la part de Philippe DELAUBIER dit Ph3 photographe expert niveau 10 et Local Guide niveau 8.Le programme Local Guides peut être énormément amélioré en qualité d’images. Pour un grand nombre de Participants, des tutos sont, pour cela, très utiles.
We are doing this job voluntarily. Helping other people is the best gift. But you are right about the gift. Even though I’m level 9, I didn’t get any rewards. This is a little motivational. @DarrenCh
Not really the point.
Like an explanation not an argument.
I do have a real job to earn money, this is for fun and helping people (it’s so obvious to me, but in case thought that I’d mention it).
I know we do this for free, you don’t get high levels without realising the obvious 
So maybe, just maybe you missed the point of my question, or I wasn’t clear enough, idk.
Is there some setting that I could get a small present. My son’s socks were really nice.
I’d just really like to know the reasoning?
The socks 
that rocks!
Have a nice day and I hope that someone somewhere somehow will answer my question.
I have not received any perks either and my friends that are local guides have received socks, pins, etc. Was there any resolution found for how to receive those items? I understand this is something we do voluntarily, but it would be nice to receive the same perks my other Local Guides have received
