Bing Places 4+

It’s ok

I can see when people have visited my page but that’s about it. You really can’t upload or update your content unless your doing a promotion. I’m a Realtor and it’s pretty limited.

Barely Used the App So Far, but Has So Far Been Useless

The app only displays and allows access to 50 of the businesses you manage, and the ones you can access on the app are arbitrarily selected by Bing, with no apparent way to edit the list of available businesses or even to access non-displayed businesses via a search function.

I initially downloaded the app to try and verify my association to a new business listing I had created, hoping to avoid waiting for a verification postcard to arrive (or to never arrive) in the mail. Bing on my desktop gave me the option to verify via the app, so I attempted to do so.

Unfortunately, seeing as how I was already administering 137 businesses on the service before even downloading the app, there was never even a chance of me verifying this new business listing on the app because it is not one of the 50 that Bing chose to display. Not to mention that the businesses that *are* available for me to edit on the app almost never need edits/updates because they are old, mostly unchanging listings.

Discovering that I won’t be able to manage via the app any new business listings I create from now on renders the app mostly useless to me. This is very unfortunate, and I’m not sure why the app's features are so prohibitively limited.

Surprising, since the Bing search engine has been such a universally loved, widely used success, much like Microsoft’s Edge browser! 😅 Kidding of course lol

Horrible experience with this app. Is my business published? Yes it is,but I’ve tried over and over to correct info on my site and got help in other areas but not the most important ones. Example.. carpet cleaning business,you should be able to type in “carpet cleaning near me”and find it at your office. You can actually type all kinds of variations of carpet cleaning and NOT find my business. When you do finally find it,I look under my listing and it shows all my other listings (FB,Yelp, etc.) all having exactly 2.5 stars. In reality I don’t have 2.5 stars anywhere on any site of mine,they all are 5 stars that I’ve worked hard for and am proud of. And lastly on Bing places every carpet cleaning business show their “yelp” reviews under their listings I’ve tried over and over to get my “yelp” reviews under my listing (I have 5 star reviews) with zero help or response via email.

Btw Google has all my correct info as well as easy to find my business. Thanks for nothing Bing!
