I've submitted multiple corrections to Google Maps and all of them eventually were fixed. I even got a same day response one time, with the longest taking about 3 weeks. I haven't made any corrections recently. Have you attempted to submit feedback on the Maps site?

+1 ... rather than complaining about it, leverage the editing functionality provided in there to make the maps better for everyone.

As counter anecdata, I've reported a concrete coatings company claiming to be inside of a post office. I've reported it several times over the course of several months and nothing has happened. See for yourself: https://goo.gl/maps/LvAZXpSJgURoUqYk8

And with the blackhole that is Google support, what's the point in feeding the beast? We're all better off using Open Street Map and not rewarding Google for their poor behavior.

Their website lists their address as a PO box which is probably causing problems. Some automated process added the business to Maps and the only solution might be for the business to take action and claim the listing on maps and update it.
