Hi @AriMar , thanks for the great post. I have a similar question, but it’s related to the level-up e-mail. I reached level 8 about a month ago but never received the usual “congrats” e-mail from Google. I’ve had it enabled in my settings the ability to receive e-mails from Google, and I even received this e-mail when reaching previous levels. Do you have any light on this?

Looking forward to your response! Thank you in advance and best regards from Brazil.

Hi @AriMar ,

It seems everyone is getting the same error like @imsharmasagar .

I got my Google 1 perk email twice but unfortunately it gave me the expired message on both the occasions.

Any solution to this? Can we expect this perk?

Regards,

Harpal

Hi there! I was told I’d receive socks (see attached picture) but instead I got stickers. I tried going through the Google Merch prompt and they just ended up sending me stickers again…I also emailed [REDACTED] but never heard back. Was wondering how I could get this resolved? Thanks in advance!

Hello @Doom_doom ,

Thank you for reaching out, Google Maps is a web mapping service to help people go around, discovering new places and others.

The Local Guides Connect itself is a place where Google Maps users join as Local Guides where they can communicate more among each other about several topics, in addition to that here is an article where you can read about Why be a Local Guide?.

I have a Google Local Guides contributor for over 2 years now and I have never received any Perks. I am also Level 7 Google Local Guides Contributor. Is there something wrong with my account?

Hello @mikhailhathey ,

There is nothing wrong with your account, perks may be offered from time to time to some Local Guides. To maximize your chances of being eligible for a future perk opportunity, continue to add high quality contributions to Google Maps.

Please also be sure that your email preferences have perks emails enabled by visiting your Local Guides settings as mentioned above on the main post.

@AngieYC I contribute quite often and have always had the perks setting on in Settings, yet I still don’t receive perks.

@AngieYC any word on why I was sent stickers instead of socks? (See previous post) Would really love to be able to show those socks off.

Hello,

Today I received the 2019 perks email and chose bon appetite as my perk subscription. But after using the code, it turns out that the google play link no longer works (bon appetite is no longer download-able on google-play). So I used the code for something I can’t use. Any way I can get another code sent to me?

Best,

Kevin
