"I have been severely brainwashed and neglected my economic ability. I was already financially strapped, but now I am forced to become even more desperate and anxious. I sincerely request you to help us protect consumer rights and recover our hard-earned money. Thank you very much!" In December 2022, a consumer who loaned nearly 30000 yuan to purchase wedding VIP services was refused a refund due to dissatisfaction with the service quality of Hong Niang, So I posted a post on a social platform with over 100 comments and responses below. "It's already difficult to find a partner for marriage, and there are many routines to follow." Some young people claim that being caught up in the routines of marriage and love intermediaries has made their marriage and love paths "even more difficult.". "I wish I hadn't entered the door of a dating company." "I wish I hadn't entered the door of a dating company at that time!"

Thinking of this, Wei Meng immediately regretted entering the door of this matchmaking company.
