Sometimes I end up buying something I really regret buying, and this time it happened again. I can assure you that it’s not my first time, and it won’t be the last time.

Sometimes I buy a product, not based on reviews or referrals, but because I’m curious and want to test something new.

Let me tell you what happened.

I’ve been thinking about testing a new software or service for Twitter for a few weeks. I’m still using TweetAdder, and I still find it just as amazing as I did a few months ago. It works great.

Now, I’ve seen some ads for new autoresponders for Twitter. An autoresponder for Twitter is all about scheduling tweets and direct messages. I have to write all my tweets and messages, but with an autoresponder, the system sends the tweets and messages at a specific time and date.

I schedule my tweets with TweetAdder. Since TweetAdder is a software on my computer, I have to leave the computer on in order for it to send my tweets. Therefore, I wanted to test a service, where I didn’t have to leave my computer on in order to send my tweets. This service was Twt Autoresponder.

I ended up paying a one time fee of $17.

The first thing I noticed was that it was easy to add new tweets, but hard to understand what time they were going to be sent to Twitter. Since I live in Norway, I’m in a different time zone than people in the US. I had no clue about the time zone, so I decided to do some testing.

I added 10 tweets, all on different times and they were going to be published during three days (on a different Twitter account than my official one). Four days later, I discovered that none of my tweets were published, even though it looked as everything was ok.

I did some more testing, and discovered that the only thing that was working was immediate tweets. The schedule didn’t work at all.

Now, I wanted to send support a few questions. If they didn’t answer them, or didn’t make Twt Autoresponder to work as the sales page says it will work, then, I’d want a refund.

I couldn’t find contact information or support anywhere on the sales page or inside the members area. All I could find was that Twt Autoresponder is a division of Fireball Group of Companies.

I could probably find out who’s behind this, if I just did some digging. But at the moment, I just want to leave it alone. It was only $17

Twt Autoresponder might be working now, but I don’t recommend it. I did my testing and that was it.
