    @IPSYCare I dont use FB or FB Messenger. Can you explain how to reach you via email using your help site? All I see is FAQs, none of which apply. I understand this is a cost saving mechanism but it shouldn't be this hard to contact a business whose product I am buying. Thx.

  • ScarVC Scarlett Holly Ⓥ (@ScarVC) reported

    @Long_Tall_Sally I've had the worst customer service experience with your Facebook messenger team, constantly ignored and had the same boiler plate info thrown at me on repeat. I really hope this isn't the same team as I need some actual assistance.

  • JenKermitjh Jennifer Walters (@JenKermitjh) reported

    Where do I send the DM Lowen? I have tried your chat service repeatedly only to be ghosted. I’ve tried FB messenger as well and was ghosted there too. Please direct me as to who to DM?

  • rsmjoy ɠιɳα🪆 (@rsmjoy) reported

    So frustrated! 😫😤😡This is now my 2nd day without cell phone service. My cell provider is working on getting the problem fixed. I’m supposed to talk to them again this afternoon. Thank God for Facebook Messenger & Google Voice!

  • BethNKVV Beth V (@BethNKVV) reported

    @HelennaRossa If they do that, I will be leaving Facebook for good. I'm only on there to stay in touch with my daughter who lives in a remote area in AZ. It's easier for her to stay in touch using FB messenger as she doesn't get very good phone service.

  • HangmanBayBay13 🦋 Anxious Millennial Fangirl 🤠💙 (@HangmanBayBay13) reported

    So earlier i got disconnected from a Red Dead Online session and then a few minutes later was when facebook messenger and Instagram was down. messenger working fine for me again so far.

  • Ememchan8 Ememchan8 🇵🇭 || Unexpected Omega @ Tapas (@Ememchan8) reported

    @talk2GLOBE I've been talking to you in DM for an hour now but all you do is send me automated messages that resolves nothing! Your app GlobeOne is useless, including your customer service through phone, & in FB messenger. You're the worst! You don't plan on responsibility for your mistake!

  • ScotScores Scot Scores (@ScotScores) reported

    Still no results for Sunday on Airdrie/Coatbridge Sunday League website, and all cup results missing from last week too. Their Facebook Messenger says they are "away" at the moment. Hopefully this is just a temporary problem.

  • Richwcleve Richard W. Cleveland (@Richwcleve) reported

    @julissaarce @BankofAmerica I had a problem contacting Bank of America and I live in Thailand. Finally, I had my brother visit a local branch in Tallahassee, and I spoke to one of the bank officers through my brother's phone, using Facebook messenger.

  • DM7DragonFyre Layla Antagonist (@DM7DragonFyre) reported

    Not that there's anyone on here who I speak with regularly but FB messenger is down and I can't send messages and I'm receiving them sporadically if at all. Which sucks bc it's my main msg program. :(

  • arrabellesss Arratilis (@arrabellesss) reported

    @enjoyGLOBE @talk2GLOBE hi! can someone pls help me with my concern about Globe at Home? I keep messaging your FB messenger but it keeps saying invalid account number. Ano ba ang hirap nyo naman iaccess? Nasira yung linya namin ng. internet.

  • RobertM52870280 Robert Mitchell (@RobertM52870280) reported

  • mlee121416 Matthew Lee (@mlee121416) reported

    @LGUSSupport I am trying to have warranty work done on a refrigerator freezer combo that in all likelihood has a compressor issue. I have had callbacks promise that didn’t occur and have gone a full day with no response to Facebook messenger chats. It’s impossible to get help.

  • SugarPuma Sugar Puma (@SugarPuma) reported

    @OctoberPrima @krystlerose42 @Shannanagins6 On Facebook Messenger there's an option to remove the unsent notification so it completely disappears from your side. You just have to hold down on it again and hit Remove.

    The facebook messenger bubble thing is terrible... Thankfully you can turn that nonsense off.

  • BoothBaby1 Carol Booth (@BoothBaby1) reported

    @QueenWillRock So sorry someone is on FB Messenger impersonating you, they actually tried to convince me you "Roger" would help with my disabled spouse and get a wheelchair van, I blocked them as the language they used did not seem like my ROGER TAYLOR :)

    @Malray7 @jen_deslauriers Oh man that sucks. Reminds me of the issues I have with Facebook messenger. My messages seem to disappear

    @flyvolaris @flyvolaris is the absolute worst.. I went to Mexico in Dec and didn’t get my bag to me until halfway through my trip! Customer service has been a nightmare. Submitted tickets on their website with no answer. Don’t get me started on their fb messenger bot. Need to talk to a human

  • Deb08795065 Deb 😃 (@Deb08795065) reported

    @majola84 @interrec @FNBSA I asked on FB messenger who RB is, as I was nervous about trusting. RB assured me he helped with queries (can’t find that message now) but I think they have RB just to get the query off soc media & out of the public eye. Then they don’t do much to help.

    @alexia24y @JuicyMomx Facebook messenger has been hacked and is a terrible platform to use.

  • PhoenyxVT Phoenyx | Vtuber (@PhoenyxVT) reported

    Is anyone else having problems with Facebook messenger? It's just not sending me notifications that people are messaging me, doesn't even pop up on my screen anymore? Is it just me? It's driving me insane cos I'm missing so many messages...
