posted: 9 months ago

Package Header

Almost half of us have purchased something online we wouldn't have bought in person. And more than half of us have resolved a consumer complaint...through Facebook.

500 online shoppers were surveyed by the folks over at Lab 42 to find out why more of us are hitting the web to do some - and even all - of our shopping. The top tip we've taken from this info-graphic is on how to get your customer service issues resolved quicker and less painfully. The answer is in social media: post your complaint onto the brands Facebook page. 51% of those surveyed said their issues where resolved this way.

Five of the Best

Things we love, things we want, things we want to do, and things we think are just cool, interesting, or at least noteworthy.

  1. If you wish you lived in a luxurious, hip barns like we do, then you'll want to click here to find out about renting one for a self-catering holiday.
  2. We haven't exactly fact-checked this Abercrombie & Fitch slam, but we're certainly open to it (and think you should be, too).
  3. Yes, you fine young thing, this pop up supper club at the Sanderson is exactly where you need to be dining on the weekends in May and June.
  4. Hold on tight, folks: 24 is returning as a 12-part mini-series next summer.
  5. We might tire of this chandelier after one night, but no doubt, it would be an interesting night.
