A more detailed report for clearer understanding will be written later.
Basically Escrow.com and even their CEO, Matt Barrie (who doesn't have good reputation amongs tech entrepreneurs) (he's also the founder of Freelancer.com which failed to IPO 10 years ago, and saw his net worth dropped significantly by 10x over the years) tried to bully me on a review of a transaction for the past 3 months.
I was willing to let it go since I can deal with my case via UDRP later, and what I reported on TrustPilot was the truth and the full story, but they just kept bullying me and tried to get the reviews removed to somehow protect their already bad reputation as a licensed Escrow service.
I'm planning to move my portfolio to AtomPay or EscrowDomains.com to see if they are better. I already have one ultra premium domain listed on Atom, signed an exclusive contract with the top domain advisory firm, Hilco Global, last year.
I don't like bully. Having worked in the cybersecurity space for over 10 years, I've been dealing with a bunch of bullies, hackers, cyber criminals, script kiddies. This case is quite interesting to me, because Escrow.com CEO reflects his leadership style and work ethics as a lazy bully all the way down to the whole Escrow.com team, as you will see in their frontline support when you experience them recently.
I will spend my spare time making sure that this escrow market is balanced with more competitions at least from Atom and EscrowDomains.com instead of just being dominated by the currently untrustworthy Escrow.com (who knows if they improve in the future, but right now it's giving people, not just me, very bad tastes)
