How to stop review request that has already been sent and how to request a second review for the same property and change the email address on the request

Updated over a week ago

How do you stop a review request that has already been sent?

Once a request has been sent to a client, there is no way to retract it.

  • You can stop the client from receiving any additional reminders

  • You can send a new request if the details were perhaps incorrect.

It may be that your client has changed emails or has asked you to stop sending the requests. Here is how you stop the automatic email from within RateMyAgent:

Step 1. Log into your RateMyAgent dashboard. Navigate to Reviews > Request. Then, click on View Pending Requests located on the right side of the page.

Step 2. Locate the specific review request and select Stop Reminders

When you request a review from your vendor or buyer, a weekly reminder is sent to them until they complete the review, or until the reminders are cancelled either by you or the client.

Please note that if edits are needed to a review or survey, you must contact the author directly as RateMyAgent cannot cancel or re-edit reviews.

The reminders will go out once a week for 5 weeks, or until they are completed, unsubscribed, or you cancel them.

How to Send a New Request or Request a Second Request for the Same Property

This guide covers sending a new request or requesting a second review for the same property.

Steps:

  1. Go to Properties: Navigate to the "Properties" section of your dashboard.

  2. Search for the property: Use the search function within the "Properties" section to locate the specific property you need.

  3. Select "Manage Reviews": Once the property is found, select the "Manage Reviews" option associated with that property.

    Note: If the result is not yet confirmed, you need to Confirm the result first before you can see the Manage Reviews option.

3. Select "Request a new review"

4. Enter the new details to send a new request.

Please note:

  • You cannot send a new request for the same property to the same email address

  • You cannot send a review request to an email that has unsubscribed from RateMyAgent emails.

Change the email address a request was sent.

Sending a review request to the wrong email address can be easily fixed via the Reviews tab in your profile.

1. Log into your agent profile/agency profile and select 'My Reviews' from the menu and then the 'View sent requests' tab.

2. Find the listing you have sent the request to and click 'Stop Reminders' if the button appears. This will stop reminders from going to the incorrect email address.

3. Click on the 'Edit & Resend' button to be able to add the client's correct email address and adjust any other details before clicking 'Request Review' to send the request out to your client's email address.



4. Select 'My Properties' followed by the 'Sold' tab - you will be able to locate the listing here, or you can use the street address search bar. Once you have located the listing, simply click 'Manage Reviews'.

5. Click 'Request a New Review' to send a new request.

6. Fill in the form with your client's correct email address and 'Request Review'

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can RateMyAgent Cancel or Re-Request Reviews?

No, RateMyAgent cannot cancel or re-request reviews that have been submitted. Changes or edits to a review or survey can only be made by the author of the review.

Can I stop a vendor from writing a review if they have the link?

No, once the vendor has the review link, it cannot be deactivated. However, reminders can be stopped.

Why are automatic review requests being sent despite my settings?

This usually happens if the 'Easy Reviews' feature is enabled. Disabling it under account settings > Automate Reviews will resolve the issue.

How can I ensure my agency doesn’t send review requests for properties we didn’t sell?

Mark properties not sold as 'Withdrawn' to stop unwarranted prompts for review requests.
