Verification for Bing Places for Business, Broken for MONTHS
Microsoft’s Bing Places for Business has been broken for months, with no fix in sight. The verification page still displays the message: “Due to some operational issues, we are unable to initiate your postcard verification. We hope to resolve this issue by Jan 31.”
Originally, this deadline kept getting pushed further down the calendar. Now, they’ve simply stopped updating it—leaving businesses stuck, unable to verify their listings, and the message outdated by over a week.
Seriously, Microsoft—you’re a $3.5 trillion company, yet you can’t manage to fix a basic function that allows local businesses to appear on your map? Instead, you’re too busy pushing AI into every product while neglecting essential services. Maybe focus on making Bing Places actually work before expanding into the next big thing. This is beyond ridiculous.
