  • MitaneBudo Mitane Budōkai 三種武道会 (@MitaneBudo) reported

    @MrSimonBennett I only have issues with it. I'm in Japan and my partner is in Canada. We usually default to Skype or FB messenger if we want clear video and audio.

  • HabaBun HabaBun (@HabaBun) reported

    @PLDT_Cares Please look into your connection in Marilao area. We're having issues again. My download speed is 0.09 MBPS. We have already contacted you through FB Messenger where the account details and phone number have been provided.

  • TheDaddyJim The Daddy (@TheDaddyJim) reported

    @AubryAndrews This is the same stuff I’d empathize with the women I’d talk with in public settings when I was an AOL guide. Yeah I’m aging myself. All the nonsense that the women had to put up with when it came to unsolicited IMs. So here it was FB messenger. Different service. Same crap.

  • BhristianRed Rist (@BhristianRed) reported

    Found out through FB messenger too. I always liked my dad, even when I turned 11 and he told me he had forgotten my birthdate ( he apparently was broke and that was a good excuse to him). I am bitter because I cannot see how it’s my job to rebuild broken relationships…

  • SaturnKit Saturn (manoj) 🪐 (@SaturnKit) reported

    @HilzFuld I believe FB, merged the identity for FB messenger login and Instagram login into one entity. This maybe side effect?

  • altoisdigital Altois Digital (@altoisdigital) reported

    Apart from instant messaging, FB messenger can help you: 1. Generate quality leads 2. Provide exemplary customer service 3. Build trust in your brand 4. Deliver instant customer support with bots (6/9)

  • sajeed141 sk.sajeed (@sajeed141) reported

    @airtelindia @GoutamB22379611 you. No 1 fraud company.. charging customers but not giving any benefits. Will rip you apart on social media. Escalated complaint multiple times on Facebook messenger n instagram.. no one cares to fix it. You just want money from the customers, you don’t care at all

  • DaniBurn4 Dani (@DaniBurn4) reported

    @StaffsPolice Via Facebook messenger. I have finally been contacted this morning and now waiting for neighbourhood policing to contact me. Appreciate the demands on the service but waiting 15 hours for a response to a serious assault is disappointing

  • SosyalGal Christine Bumatay 🌻 (@SosyalGal) reported

    Hi @flyPAL - I’m trying to change my seat selection online but it won’t take my card. It says that it’s already processing the transaction but it hasn’t on my end. Can you help me with this? I’ve tried calling and using FB messenger as well but no responses.

  • nahtan1818 nathan blanchette (@nahtan1818) reported

    @RickyHarris5 I sent them a message on Facebook messenger and they replied back that it was staffing issues

  • CrnchyMama 💙SaltyCannonFodder(teacher) (@CrnchyMama) reported

    @WashSportsRJ Me neither. I managed to get my neighbor fed via FB messenger & amazing neighbors literally *while I was driving to PA.* I don’t know if it’s a mom thing or a teacher thing or an Asperger’s thing, but I thrive on solving problems… To a point.

  • home_cinema_man Paul Allen (@home_cinema_man) reported

    @CeXSupport can someone DM please? I have an ongoing problem with a product I ordered 12 days ago that arrived broken and as of yet nothing has been done. I am being ignored on FB messenger.

  • existentialct_ Nic (@existentialct_) reported

    uninstalled & reinstalled instagram to try fix a glitch, but now it's not sending my 2fa text code (and I don't have backup codes saved) so I can't get into any of my accounts. Hoping it fixes itself in a day or two, but until then catch me here or fb messenger

  • sineadmcna Sinéad Mc (@sineadmcna) reported

    Nobody: Facebook messenger: Wanna talk to that random stranger who found your keys at the gym that one time in 2017 and messaged you on here to help get them back to you?

  • SaruskaCoraJ Saruska Balenciga (@SaruskaCoraJ) reported

    It wouldn’t be such an issue , if she didn’t make a huge deal about me threw Facebook messenger.

  • glen_mcgregor Glen McGregor (@glen_mcgregor) reported

    Lich says a big issue is that her and husband play in a band and a lot of their bookings come in through Facebook messenger. "We do everything, from Miranda Lambert to Motörhead," she says. Agrees her husband could do this.

  • eyllekskincare Eyllekskincare (@eyllekskincare) reported

    @Wix @WixPartners @WixHelp unblock Kellye Stephens on Facebook messenger. You guys have no problem billing her for years. Now all of a sudden you guys need Military style intelligence to investigate? If this was Kylie Skin we would have control of our website by now!

  • 58desiree Desiree Vandenhoven (@58desiree) reported

    @WestJet do u#you use fb messenger? I’m currently trying to solve an issue but am sceptical if this is for real?

  • bigdurtynerd Big Durty Nerd (@bigdurtynerd) reported

    HIVE MIND! I have a client who recently had an employee leave the company, but is still receiving FB Messenger notifications. We have removed him from the FB page but I can't find a viable way to restrict access to the company FB Messenger. Help? Please?

    @TurkishAirlines how does one confirm a flight change when none of your phone numbers are working? They don’t even ring, they just immediately fail when calling. I used your Facebook messenger service and they request that I call. My flight is tomorrow so we this is a problem!

  • bastion_of_hope Bastion of Hope (@bastion_of_hope) reported

    Is there anyone I know on here that can help point me in the direction of tracking down someone via Facebook Messenger that scammed me out of money and is likely doing it to other people? I want to make sure they get reported properly.
