Thank you everyone for your support and vivid discussion. I hope this manages to reach the right eyeballs eventually!

As someone who works in reputation management, it was observed that there's very little incentive/value for the business to follow up on individual complaints with limited exposure - At best, resources will be spent with little return of value, at worst, the business may be dragged into a legal battle.

Consider putting it on Telegram, as you may know Telegram is growing faster than ever before.
