Problem with Facebook Bing Maps – when adding a ‘peg’ to a holiday destination on the Fb map, I found it put the place, a town in Italy, into a completely random place [with seemingly the same name] somewhere near Manchester, UK. Fb software will not let me change or delete it.
Thanks for the visuals! I too am concerned about privacy of the map. I have only one “check-in” on there — it was from a friend. He used the “F” word in the check-in location, and I can’t delete it. Unfortunately, when I follow your instructions, I am only given the option of sharing with friends or sharing with the friends of the guy who checked me in. Frustrating!

I wrote a post to answer your question. https://jenniferellisj.wpengine.com/fix-incorrect-facebook-location/
But essentially the answer is, if the location is incorrect on a specific page on Facebook somewhere, you can request a change to that page.

You can go into your main settings under privacy and turn off the ability for people to check you in.
