An ever increasing number of companies are claiming to use Twitter
for customer service. But what they are really doing is using
Twitter to engage with the customer and direct them to the right
customer service resource. From the consumer point of view, the

response will be quite visible to others. Any company setting up
customer service on Twitter has to deal with the same issues it has
with other methods of support but with new twists.
