About Yext Duplicate Suppression
Please note the following:

• REVIEW
  Suppression requests are reviewed by Yext and/or the publisher to confirm that they are for duplicates of an existing Listing. Do not use this feature to suppress listings that are not duplicates of an existing Listing.
• TIMELINE
  Review usually takes no more than 24 hours, after which suppression happens immediately on many sites. Other sites may take up to one week or longer.
• RESULT
  Suppression causes listings to be removed from search results on the publisher. In most cases, the URL of the suppressed listing redirects to the correct listing, but sometimes the old URL shows the new content or returns an error.
