Please help me build a list of companies who have deliberately walled off human support behind a ai support bot loops

There are some companies where it is just impossible to reach out to a real human support person. There support bot system will just play you for the fool. These companies have designed there support to just keep exploitingthe customer. AI bot support replacing humans completely is like an epidemic, it is everywhere around the world. Some of the companies I have faced this issue with are: Flipkart, Zepto, Rapido bikes, X, Discord.. but I am seeing too many complaints about this design becoming a norm.

Being personally frustrated with the design, I have started a X account called @NoBotForSupport for fighting this incompetent design. It would very helpful if you can share your stories facing such issues with AI bot support and company names implementing this design. I would be able to help many more consumers.

Amazon Prime $2.5B class action settlements for using dark patterns to trick people into prime subscriptions

Amazon got hit with a $2.5 billion settlement for using dark patterns to trick people into prime sub. If you signed up between 2019-25, you may qualify for up to $51. No proof needed. I'm not sure if I can post the link here, but if you look up $2.5B Amazon prime membership FTC settlement, you should find a form (should take 2min to fill out)

There's this free ios and android app called FreeClaim that I built to track active class action settlement. 81 right now, 18 don't require proof. (Disclosure - I'm the dev, the app is 100% free)
