    Remove duplicate Business from Yahoo Local Search

    Hi Folks,
    I have my business listed in Yahoo local search, when I logged in to my account I can see one active listing, 3 pending listings and 1 reactive (deleted) listing from the same Yahoo local Account.
    Now if I go to yahoo local search and type my business name, address I can see three listings with same domain name, address and different business names.
    So my query is how I can remove duplicate business listings from Yahoo local, is there any features like “Report a problem” available in Google local that yahoo provide to remove other listing except my business submitted my me.

    Refer this Image for clarification.



    Thanks!

    Here, this is what we have used in the past: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/local/remove_listing.html

    Hope that helps. If it doesn't I would recommend contacting Yahoo support.

    James,
    It's been a while, but I was wondering what you did to remove the duplicate listings you had on Yahoo. I tried the above link and it's not going anywhere specific. I already tried to deal with Yahoo directly and they were no help. They sent me to a general forum and after some searching, I ended up here.

    Thanks
