Have you ever experienced difficulty communicating with a business?

Yes we had a bitter experience with an Asian internet TV company. They were providing all the regional channels that we were looking for. After trying them one month for free we took the connection.

We paid in advance to them and also agreed to the scheme of automatic debit from our debit card every month.

At the beginning we could see all the desired channels and the quality was also good. We were able to chat with their technical team through their website and they used to solve our minor problems.

But suddenly we were not able to view anything and when we went to their website all their contact us  page was not appearing and chat option was also not working. So it was impossible to contact them, and every month our money was getting deducted from our account.

Would social media have made it easier to get noticed or get your problem solved?

It was a helpless situation and then we started searching about the company and their activities through google. We found lots of comments from many users who has suffered and still suffering and we realized that we are also a victim. Those blogs and comments helped us a lot, We also joined the forum, but the company never got back to us. We had to cancel the payment option to get rid of them.


It was a learning session for us, now before opting for any purchase or any other financial activities we do a thorough research online about the company. Not only in their blogs but also check the customers reviews. Thanks to the social media.
