Twitter Faces Lawsuit for Failing to Pay for Office Services

Twitter accused of non-payment for office services

Twitter is facing another lawsuit after the company was accused of failing to pay for services for its offices in London, Dublin, Sydney and Singapore.

The Sydney-based infrastructure services company is seeking payments of more than AUD1 million ($666,000) in expired in October last year when Elon Musk bought the platform.

Extent of services and impact

Services provided include facilitating the installation of sensors in London and Dublin and office equipment in Singapore, while in Australia’s service has been halted, according to documents obtained by the British newspaper The Guardian.

The case, which was filed in the US District Court for the District of Northern California in late June, was first reported by NCA Newswire.

After Musk acquired Twitter, the company said the company of social media he did not dispute the bills but simply did not pay them.

According to court filings, the company isn’t the only one suing Twitter since Musk took over.

Advertisers alienated

The company explained that Musk’s moderate decisions and the lifting of the ban on far-right and neo-Nazi accounts alienated advertisers and caused a financial crisis for the platform.

Interestingly, Twitter stopped paying rent for some of its offices and stopped paying many vendors whose services it still used.

Twitter also canceled several contracts and stopped paying people it owed money to.

The popular site has already dealt with cause legal proceedings for non-payment of office rent in around the world, according to the newspaper.

There was also speculation that the company’s decision to limit non-paying users to seeing just 600 tweets a day last week was the result of a failure to pay bills to keep the site running smoothly.
