    I mean ****, the fact that Discord has one of the worst scam/spambot problems of any chat application I have ever used - even Facebook Messenger - should be telling of their low regard for their users. People pay for this. Thousands of people scammed, no additional protections.

    @MetaforDevs yall need to fix Facebook messenger bugs🤬🤬🤬 whenever i open group chats or direct message it kicks me out of the app and sometimes its stuck on messenger meta (loading screen?? ) 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • AxieEnergy Axie Arena Energy Calculator (@AxieEnergy) reported

    @mandapatfrank Hi! No, you won't be banned from using our app. Since it's just like using your Facebook Messenger or splitting your screen and using another application. It's 100% safe, over 400 users had it on our previous version and no one got any problems. I hope this reply helps.

  • starryjackie Jackie Alday (@starryjackie) reported

    I think Facebook Messenger is down again. Waiting to see if my message even sends. You should text me instead.

    The man who made my life miserable during my time as a customer service officer with S* Bank is in my Facebook Messenger, cheering me on. Talking about, “I knew you special!”

  • omglolbah omglolbah (@omglolbah) reported

    @atomicthumbs It needs to be good enough that people are willing to make the effort to join "yet another" messaging app. That is my main issue getting people off of just using fb messenger or discord. "It is fine, why are we moving?" is the general gist of most people's response..

    @O2 would you please let me know how to place an official complaint, it is impossible to get through to you via telephone and speaking on Facebook messenger to your customer service department is a shambles

  • davideoll David Eoll (@davideoll) reported

    @MuellerSheWrote @AshaRangappa_ @CoreyRForrester ... and yet she insists on trying to communicate with me through FB messenger, which I absolutely refuse to use. It presents a problem.

    @RedVentures I have an enquiry about a job vacancy listed on your website but can't get hold of anyone to ask. I've emailed the only address listed on your website but had no replies and tried Facebook messenger too, but no reply. Can someone DM me and help out?

  • DickyBellringer CuntyVonCrink© (@DickyBellringer) reported

    To all those that know me in real life.. Facebook messenger has stopped me from using the service. Won't let me reactivate the old FB account either.

  • ciaoobellaaa Janine (@ciaoobellaaa) reported

    @DFAPHL Good day, I’ve tried reaching DFA everywhere emails/hotline/fb messenger but none replied. In fact I just sent a new email asking for an update regarding my passport which I applied last July. It was never delivered back to me. I hope you could help me with my concern.

  • fatsailorsaturn 🪐👄🪐 (@fatsailorsaturn) reported

    Idk why but I am missing all of my dead family members so bad atm. It’s hitting me hard. Scrolled far down on my Facebook messenger and saw messages from them. I’m doing so much better in life but I still miss my mom and everyone.

  • 4thWall_Kat Kathrin 🌎 (@4thWall_Kat) reported

    Rather hilarious issue with a flight that aer lingus cancelled and automatically rebooked me on a different on: I am now leaving Dublin for Toronto a day before I even arrive in Dublin. Also, they offer customer service on FB Messenger (cool cool) but they just said to call? 🤔

  • mlopezflores1 Maria C. Lopez (@mlopezflores1) reported

    @DisneyStudios How does one get ahold of customer service at Disneyland? I've called, emailed, FB messenger only to end up at the same 714-719-4636 number where nobody answers. Hope someone has a contact number other than the one I have. Thank you!!!

  • hailieshapedbox multiple syllables (@hailieshapedbox) reported

    @viajaVolaris why are all of your customer service numbers fake and why do you try to compensate by using instagram and facebook messenger #unprofessional

  • MeezerSqueezer MeezerSqueezer (@MeezerSqueezer) reported

    @cvspharmacy What does it take to get a simple CarePass issue fixed? It's been almost 2 weeks. I have made many phone calls and sent multiple emails from your own website, and used Facebook Messenger. I've been disconnected, left on hold, and told my call could not be completed.

    @messenger I was the admin of a Facebook Messenger chat, but when messenger was down one of my friends removed me as an admin, now no one else is an admin. When someone tries to add new ppl it says new people need to be approved by admins, but there are no admins listed.
