Anyone been banned by a company on twitter?

Hi Ive just entered a blog comp with a twitter link - when I clicked follow on it it said that I had been blocked by them. Ive never done anything wrong as far as I know and feel quite upset about it. (I am easily upset!) Have sent them a message on twitter about it but whether they reply I dont know if they will reply. Has this happened to anyone? Thanks xoxo

Which company was it? Someone was sent a negative (sounding) tweet by a company re comping.

Thanks. I love my hobby - I only enter for things I want for myself or members of my family. Its not like I sell the things I win. I cant wait to see if they reply! xoxo

It's a bit silly of them really though, creates bad publicity for them and puts people off using them. I guess I can see if someone does nothing but RT comps they may not like those people to win but probably quite a few compers will end up using companies they have won from, I know I have given in when I've won something and really liked it and most people probably don't enter unless they like what is on offer.

Find it quite rude of a company to do that!

I believe in naming and shaming in those situations...

had the same happen to me. with @LMDvintage needless to say i wouldn't but anything from them ever. Why have a competition then ban people from entering. Banned from viewing the comments on the tweet i retweeted and banned from following too.

Had a couple ban me for no apparent reason.
Thought it was a bit rude, seethed :mad: for a few seconds then moved on and never gave it another thought until now.

I've just been blocked from following by the Worsley Dress Agency. Weird, I've never done anything to them!
