They just don't respond. All of a sudden this app took every coupon code I've ever made and added them to merchant center, giving customers 100% off using test codes I made. This caused a huge problem with our business, and so far, 7 days later, nobody ever responded to my support ticket.
Hi there, William from Shopify here, the situation you're describing definitely does not sound ideal so thank you for taking the time to review our app. Since this has store specific details that will be required to troubleshoot; what I'll do is reach out to you via email to discuss those details and get to the bottom of this request.

Un mes esperando a que me solucionen el problema, activan y desactivan los productos sin ningún sentido, muy mala sincronización con la cuenta de merchant, no lo entiendo al final todo es un producto de google con el que gana dinero de todos nosotros, no entiendo el mal soporte y la mala asociación con sus productos.

If I could give this 0 stars I would. I chose Shopify because i wanted to direct more of my sales to my own website instead of using Amazon for all my sales. I was excited to use the Google App. I signed up in April and everything was going fine for a few days. Was getting good traffic and then Bam! I was suspended for Suspicious Payments. I have been trying to fix this but no one from Goggle will assist and tell me what is wrong or how to fix my problem. There is no way to talk to anyone. This has been very frustrating. If I am going to keep this webpage I need to figure out how to drive buyers to my site.

Although Google is best to direct you with this, I'll be sending an email out to you shortly to explain some details that could help. I look forward to communicating with you there. Adil | Shopify

Garbage app misrepresentation is what they tell you so you have to pay. Spent 6 month's asking to review it and they give the same lame excuses it doesn't follow policies but they won't tell you how to fix it.
Hello there! Paola here from Shopify. I completely understand where you are coming from. Having your Google Merchant Center Account suspended due to misrepresentation can be frustrating and confusing. Although Shopify and our app has no participation in suspending your account (this is entirely up to Google and not Shopify), I am happy to share with you a bit of my experience and what you can do next to best address this issue. Hopefully you can take advantage of our Google Channel app soon. I will be reaching out to you through email shortly. Looking forward to chatting with you! Best Regards, Paola | Shopify

My experience with this app has been terrible. It hasn't made any difference since I signed up. My Google Ads Specialist didn't respond to any of my emails. I was informed the team is working on finding me a replacement. It's been 3 weeks.....

My google ads account was suspended for the very vague reason of "misrepresentation" so I call google support and the lady I spoke with says that I met all requirements and that nothing was wrong so I ask if she can fix it because it's urgent and she said I have to submit a request for review that could take up to 7 days... during my biggest sale of the year... BLACK FRIDAY!!! I am so frustrated I might move all my stores from google shopping. I can't begin to express my disappointment... I will lose thousands over this.

This app sucks. Been waiting to get approved for weeks now for the smart shopper campaign when its suppose to take 3-5 business days, tops. It Just says “pending”. Not sure why Shopify allowed this channel to be built if the developers do not respond and approve the issues listed here.
Hey there, Robyn here from Shopify. Thank you for taking the time to share your review of the Google Channel with us. We really appreciate your feedback. I'm sorry to hear of the struggles you are facing with a stuck pending campaign.

3 weeks waiting for google to approve my products, but I keep getting errors even if everything is well set up. No support from shopify - they send me to google, but google sends me back to shopify. This app is a joke.. and is also not well documented. You have to blindly guess where every issue is coming from, optional fields are actually mandatory fields (you will find this on your own time..), and the bulk editor for google fields is a joke - you have to go page by page in order to find a product that needs a option checked for google.
Hi there, William here a support specialist with Shopify. I see from your review that you've had some trouble getting your products approved and using the bulk editor. I also understand that the level of support you received was not at the standard you were expecting. I'm going to reach out to you via email to discuss the account specific details, please look out for my email. William | Shopify Support Specialist

I've been sturggling for about a month with my merchant account being suspended for "misrepresentation". They claim that when you're account is suspended, you'll receive an email with more details about the issue and information about how to fix it. The warnings are broad and leave you having to guess exactly where the problem is. When I've called the help center for more information, they've told me directly that their system is automated and not even they can tell me why my account is suspended. There is no way of seeing where an issue is and no information is provided about how to fix it.
Hi there, Cathal here from Shopify. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback, we really appreciate it. Although contacting Google is the best way to resolve this issue, as the suspension comes from them, I'll be sending you an email shortly to explain some details that could help. I look forward to communicating with you there.

Do what we did. Ditch the google app. Move to a paid app which integrates with Google shopping centre and get support from a proper app developer who can help solve your feed issues. Google wont help you.
Hey! I'm going to send you an email to see exactly what happened, and see if we can get to the bottom of what's been going on here. Please keep an eye out for an email from me. Cíara | Shopify Support

It worked for two weeks very well. After that it stopped working. No visible reason. No exsisting troubleshooting site.

Our Google Merchant centre and Google ads account got suspended, as soon as we installed this. Shopify experts should evaluate each app before launching. It's so disappointing.

I find it quite disappointing that because our store currency is in Naira which is because we are in Nigeria, we are unable to use this application. We tick all the boxes and have been using Shopify for 3 years. I do think this discrimination is unfair and we have been trying to use this for over a year now. Would be great if this can be reviewed
Hello, Jacky here from Shopify. Thanks for taking the time to submit your feedback. At the time of this reply, Nigeria is listed as a beta country of sale on Google and the Google channel does not support those countries. I will follow up with you over email to open up the lines of communication. Jacky | Shopify

The product sync suddenly lost connection without any notification. We have lost significant revenue because of this. And as at today, around half month after the issue happen, there is no update from Shopify and no one contacted us. I am desperately looking for solution but could not find any. Seriously disappointed.

This app has never worked properly and i end up with a misrepresentation violation from google which suspends my account. Its quite frustrating as google never actually tells you what you have done wrong
Hi there! Paola here from Shopify. I understand how frustrating it is to not know why your account was suspended due to Misrepresentation. Google does not share with us at Shopify why an account was suspended. Our app only reflects their decision. With that being said, I'm happy to share with some suggestions based on our experience. I will be following up with you through email shortly. I look forward to chatting with you! Paola | Shopify

I would like to know why Google is all of a sudden claiming misrepresentation on so many including us. What is going on? Why are suspended? Why should I continue to do business with Google at all?

Google does not share with us at Shopify the reasons why they suspend an account. However, I'm happy to share with you some suggestions on how to handle this situation. I will be reaching out to you shortly via email. I look forward to chatting with you! Paola | Shopify

Same issues. Does not work. Google requires GTIN codes and if left empty all your products will be disapproved. I create custom products and it doesn't work.
