What merchants complain about

EDITED: Viral sweep is great. We are on our 6th sweepstakes and they get it right every time. If i have a problem they will hop on zoom with you and fix anything you need. They are great - Coming back to change my review this is not the company it once was. Customer Service is almost non existent when it comes to solving problems - there is people to talk to but they have no idea whats going on anymore like they used to. We are abandoning these guys after this month, after working together a very long time. Started in 2021
