Claim first. Until the listing is yours you cannot edit it, and correcting it is the whole point of claiming.
If the information is actively harmful — a wrong phone number sending calls elsewhere, or a photo of a different business — say so in the claim form so it can be prioritised.
Claim first, then correct
You cannot edit a listing until it is yours, so claiming is the route to fixing it, not a separate task.
Flag anything harmful in the claim form
- A wrong phone number sending your calls elsewhere.
- A photo of a different business.
- A wrong address sending people to the wrong street.
Saying so lets the claim be prioritised, because the damage is ongoing.
