Has anyone pointed out the problems with the Indiegogo-Campaign to Indiegogo directly?
The policy for campaigns prohibits misleading statements btw.

A few people have complained, including me.

All you get is a stock reply message:

Hi there,

Thank you for sharing your concern with us. At this time, the campaign is under review to ensure that it adheres to our Terms of Use (http://www.indiegogo.com/about/terms). We will follow up with you if we have any further questions.

So what happens now? We will include the information you have provided along with all other information at our disposal in our review of the campaign. In some cases, we will contact the campaign owner to have them edit their campaign and it will remain on our platform. If the project doesn't follow our rules, we may remove the campaign. We may also restrict the campaign owner's future activities on Indiegogo.

To protect our users' privacy, we're unable to share the action we take. At Indiegogo, we take the trust and safety of our community very seriously, and we greatly appreciate your patience and understanding throughout this review process. To learn more about Indiegogo’s Trust & Safety effort, please visit: www.indiegogo.com/trust

Please note that you do not need to contact us again. Doing so would create a new ticket and prolong the process. Thank you again for taking the time to get in touch with us and for helping to keep Indiegogo a safe and secure platform.

It is pointless. I did complain to far worse campaigns which were obvious scams (free energy), and got the same stock message. I guess unless something is illegal, like selling drugs, they don't care.

I like the "PRO" tag on their vimeo channel :D

It didn't took them long to go and drop 500-ish dislikes on Dave's video.
Man, those guys are trying hard to defend their crap.
I'm sure if they were honest about their product, they wouldn't be in this mess.

Whoever purchased the dislike package should complain. Yesterday that video had 16 down-votes, and today 515. That's one short.

I went back and looked at Dave's other batteriser-related videos and all were downvoted to oblivion. I had to counteract all that. Thumbs up on all those videos

Maybe it's not too late to ask for a refund?

No reputable company would do this. Probably a "fan" did it, not affiliated with Batteroo :)

Who buys dislikes on a video that only had 900 views to begin with, I guess it shows that the video was the truth!

On a totally unrelated note, I guess I have many Vietnamese viewers who don't like my video... all at the same time!  :-DD

Perhaps their next model mk2 will require no battery, get even more energy from your none battery.

You have to post a screen shot of that!
There is proof they are buying comments, and mostly likely views, and now thumbs down on other videos. Sad.

Here you go, proof that someone bought dislikes on my Batteriser videos on the 24th August, out of Vietnam.
Note the number of dislikes vs views.
Can't get data on my most recent video because the stats lag.

For anyone who has a Batteriser related video, please post the same screen shots if you have been subjected to a load of thumbs down. I'd like to use it in a video.

More proof.
Exactly the same date and county as the other video but on my original video this time, with a fresh spate of dislikes the other day.
Never happened before on any of my 800+ videos.
Truly sad.

I don't understand.
why is it possible to have more dislikes than views?

Views require loading the video, dislikes only the page.

Views require loading the video, dislikes only the page.

but I would think it'd be a logical choice to have required you to watch the video to choose
then again, the web rarely makes logical choices.
