Quantitative approach and SEM-PLS were used to gather data from (384) customers in Sharjah. The results showed that the general service quality has a considerable direct impact on customer loyalty. Although service quality also has a positive impact on the customer satisfaction, customer satisfaction does not mediate the relationship between all dimensions of service quality and customer loyalty. The assurance and tangibles are the only ones mediated with, and reliability, responsiveness, and empathy do not have significant indirect effects. This study added to the theory by expanding the use of EDT to a highly regulated, duopolistic telecommunication environment and provides practical implications to the telecommunication providers in the UAE who are aiming to increase customer loyalty by improving the quality of service offering to their customers in ways that are targeted and specific.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> 2026-05-12T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Hussain Alzamani https://managementscienceresearchjournal.com/index.php/msr/article/view/211 The Influence of Consumer Dissatisfaction and Variety Seeking on Brand Switching (A Study of Tumbler Tupperware Users in Surabaya) 2026-05-11T16:41:44+07:00 Amirah Cetta Candraningtyas 22012010310@student.upnjatim.ac.id Hery Pudjoprastyono heryp.ma@upnjatim.ac.id <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of consumer dissatisfaction and variety seeking on brand switching among users of Tupperware water bottles (tumblers) in Surabaya.
