Recently they had a Dash giveaway using Twitter. We had to retweet one of their posts - in effect we were advertising for them.

Well they made a mistake and it didn't work - no Dash was received. They then tweeted that we should email them, but many of us didn't see it in time, as they gave us only a couple of days to do so.

The response was just that we were out of time. I find this very unprofessional, and this fits some of the descriptions of the Dash team which I have seen elsewhere on the web.

My Twitter profile now says "Don't buy Dash!"

I hope the Dash team realizes that, although they have been successful because of their slick advertising, there are two sides to every coin. There is also such a thing as negative advertising and in its most natural form it is customers publicly showing dissatisfaction.

(Please note that the actual amount of Dash involved was quite small, but that's not the point)
