I have been Trade Me for many years, had couple of hundred positive feedbacks and very few negative/neutral feedbacks, just months ago had problem with a buyer, then Trade Me called me and threatened me specifically that they’ll close my account if I got one more negative feedback.
I was feeling been treated unfairly as they only heard one side of story as usual, I had discussed with my lawyers and was ready to prosecute, then I found your website and decided why shall I waste my energy to someone who’s so arrogant and rude, when I can start over here fresh.
I don’t know how much money I made for Trade Me, and always keep my positive feedback above 96%+, but if this’s the way they abuse their power towards their royal members, then it’ll be a good time for a new change.
I’m not sure am I the only one or there’re others like me, but I wish my story will reach to others who might have faced similar situations, and I just want them to know that you do have a choice.
