Migrate data between google accounts

Hello Guides.

 

Does someone have experience migrating data between Google accounts?
I want to get a new email address, but I don't want to lose all my points and data on Google Maps and Googe Local Guides Community. Is it possible?  👀 🤞

 

I found some links but I'm not sure if all my LG data It's gonna be safe in this process:

I hope someone could help me with some tips.

 

Cheers from Nicaragua!

Re: Migrate data between google accounts

Hi @LeninMedina:

Unfortunately, it is not possible to move all of your contributions and points from one account to the other. You'll have to start again with all of your contributions if you want to use a new email address. Afterwards, you'll have to leave the program with the old account and sign up with the new account. 

Please post publicly so others can benefit as well. I do not have private messages. Thanks!

Ok, thanks.
Maybe in the future Google LG Program should consider this as an options. In my case I have a privacy issue with my current Gmail address. 🙄

I tried but it wasn't possible for this reason: "If your account's email address ends in , you usually can't change it."
This option is not enable on my Google Account.
Thanks a lot!

Re: Migrate data between google accounts

@LeninMedina: Are you trying with a non Gmail account? Local Guides requires a Google account, as per the Terms & Conditions of the program.

So it doesn't have to be a Gmail account, but if the account uses G-Suite, then you would be able to sign up for the Local Guides Program.

I understand it is frustrating that you'll have to start again, but this is great feedback as I know others have similar experiences!

Hi @Shirley, it possible for me to copy my contribution to new account and after finish copy all my contribution I will delete my account? won't it get banned or blocked?

Hi @FachryMyID:

It isn't possible to copy contributions from one account to another, at least not in one step. If you want to go to your individual review for each location and copy the review from one account to another, then I suppose you can spend some time to do that.
