@Dennis
Good questions…
As to why US reviewers are more willing… I have several theories.
1)Reviewing started in the US and the leading review sites took several years longer to enter the market become popular in Europe
2)There are big cultural differences around the question of publicly sharing.. Germany for example, due to their history, is much more rigorous on a personal level about privacy. In the US, we have larger a % of the population that moves and thus might need reviews more.
3)These differences in culture might apply to customer complaints as well. It would be interesting to survey consumers and see.

Now, I’m wondering how their customer complaints differ. I wonder why the U.S. is more willing to leave reviews than the other English speaking countries.

Those are some interesting statistics. I wonder where Canada fits into the equation. Do you know where I could find some information about Canadians reviewing companies?
