Report Review (or photo) listed for the incorrect location / business

It would be very useful if Google Maps had a feature to report an incorrect review (or photo) for the wrong location or business, rather than just the option to report violations.

 

For example, I encountered a review for a fashion store in Perth city, WA - Uniqlo - which contained a review for a food store. If I select Report Review I only have the option to report a violation under four categories:

1) hateful, violent or inappropriate;

2) advertising / spam;

3) off-topic, or

4) conflict of interest.

 

There is no option for 5) review of incorrect location / business.

 

An iPhone screenshot showing three reviews for Uniqlo Perth, with the second review circled in red which contains a review for a different (food) business (not Uniqlo fashion store).An iPhone screenshot showing three reviews for Uniqlo Perth, with the second review circled in red which contains a review for a different (food) business (not Uniqlo fashion store).I have seen that other Local Guides have made similar suggestions but perhaps in a forum that went unnoticed or when there was a different format to LGC feedback e.g. @ElenaG 's post - Review and photos of a different place.

 

Like ElenaG 'I think it is obvious that there is a need for more options which include the possibility of sincere mistakes by reviewers and "local guides".'

 

Please vote with a thumbs up if you agree with this idea.
