I came to catch the flight at 6 o’clock in the morning, and then I have been working on the manuscript at the airport. I will update these first, and continue after landing. There will be more in the evening.
“Do you have any explanation about Tuanbao.com?”
“No, I can’t even get through to the customer service phone number, and I don’t know where to go to defend my rights!”
“I will never hoard coupons again.”
“Those merchants who have not received their payment are the worst off…”
The incident of Tuanbao.com boss running away continues to grow, and there are more and more rights protection groups. In addition to consumers, the biggest problem is the payment from merchants.
Because of the egregious nature of the situation, the matter has been extremely popular on Tieba and Weibo.
Everyone was waiting for an explanation, but what they were waiting for was not an apology and compensation from Tuanbao.com, but another piece of news.
24 Coupon’s business in Xiacheng collapsed. More than 120 employees blocked the door of the company to ask for wages, but the city manager never showed up.
“Another runaway!”
“I really can’t believe the group buying, one after another, it’s terrible.”
“Fortunately, I didn’t hoard too many coupons. How many people must have been deceived!”
“Mom said there are many bad people on the Internet, and it seems true.”
“How many group buying websites can you trust now?”
“Don’t believe any of them. They are all the same, offering discounts every day, but in the end the wool comes out of the sheep!”
“This is a phishing website. It will give you a discount first to get you to take the bait, and then it will take your money and run away after gaining your trust.”
“I am from Metropolis Daily. Do you have any inside information? I will follow up on this matter and report it. Maybe I can help you protect your rights!”
The turmoil has not subsided, but another wave has arisen, and the group buying market has begun to become chaotic.
And those affected websites have also stepped forward and started public relations to regain their credibility.
Lashou.com directly disclosed the second financing to the media, and also mentioned Alibaba’s name, which was regarded as an endorsement of itself by using the other party’s credit.
Nuomi’s approach is similar. It also cooperates with Baidu and invites several top celebrities to shoot advertisements.
But it’s a pity that the effect is not good, because Baidu has no credibility in the hearts of consumers…
Dianping went even further and directly launched a use-now-pay-later monthly settlement service.
In other words, they directly changed the order of consumption, so that consumers’ worries that they would be easily cheated by hoarding coupons were directly eliminated.
