    As many of you are already aware, Carolina West appears to be down. This means I cannot receive any calls or texts. You'll need to reach me via FB Messenger. my work cell (if you have it), or Twitter. I'm also able to receive singing telegrams, candy-grams, smoke signals, …

    @PLDT_Cares Hi, I need assistance regarding my internet issue. I am currently having no LOS light and occasionally it turns blinking red for a few minutes then goes back to no light. I have already created a ticket through your fb messenger and I wanted to do a followup.

    Trying to chat with @bose customer service on fb messenger and it's like i'm talking with someone who's three years in the past. It's taking forever.

    @noseyrosey30 @TweetCalzedonia Good luck! I placed my order on 27th December and still haven’t received it! The customer service is terrible... don’t expect a reply on here, via email or via phone. Try Instagram DM or FB messenger xx

    Facebook Messenger's web version seems to have gotten absolutely terrible all of a sudden now that they're trying to push a desktop version. Like, actively borderline-unusable. Takes 5-10 seconds to switch conversations, massive lag on everything and frequent glitches.

    @HPUK why has it become so difficult to arrange a return under warranty with hp UK. All I get is a virtual agent and Facebook messenger service to a US site? I have had a hp spectre x360 for almost 3 years and have had to return it 6 times due to various hardware issues.

    @TMobile_NL @tmobile_webcare And with this tweet + 20 minutes trying to reach the customer service by phone + facebook messenger message I consider that my 1 month previous notice has already started, I don't wanna hear in february "you will have to pay March"

    if fb messenger got rid of the feature where you can hold down an emoji button to make it blow up like a balloon i would probably have to end my life

    Lockdown problem. A friend messaged me and I forgot to reply. Was it an SMS? WhatsApp? Signal? Facebook Messenger? Carrier Pidgeon?

    @kreditbee I've contacted via Facebook Messenger, email, twitter Dm's everything but there is no proper response from your side. Atleast please let me know if the server problem cannot be fixed rather than giving false hopes. This is really unprofessional, never expected this

    Reed (@TheReedyBear) reported

    @Chature_ @signalapp I have that problem too! (When receiving) It can be quite frustrating, but i haven't cared enough to make a bug report. I do quite like having cute cute stickers & really miss the large selection i had on fb Messenger (which i seldom use nowadays)

    @enjoyGLOBE I've been asking for help in your fb messenger app. And nothing. Zilch. Spend more on your help centers than on mediocre advertising.

    @freeWisp Hey again. Finally my facebook messenger just as of a few minutes ago started opening up and working right again. No more redirects. I didn't do anything to fix it, they just got it working again. Was out for me from the 21st to just earlier today. I hope it is for you soon.

    @relu84 @stickermule FB messenger is even worse than WhatsApp! And also, it's a tragic IM service, such a mess.

  • bb6xt
    Abraham Yusuf (@bb6xt) reported

    @iamtoystars @Samuel_NET I just go to FB to read posts and watch funny videos. Friends & family will just message you because you're online. I don't have FB messenger (don't want it) so it is tedious for me to login via browser just to see "hi". It'd seem rude if you don't reply so just hide.

    @NordicTrack @iFit I’ve tried tweeting them. Facebook messenger. And email. They are unresponsive over the past week. I didn’t pay $2000 for the bike and $300 for service warranty to get this kind of **** service. Please help or please come pickup the bike. My next contact is to the BBB

    Had a guy contact me on FB Messenger. He liked my take on a problem a #screenwriter was having. He asked me to read his first 15 pages (they're usually not good). I waited til I was feelin' no pain from some #CoorsBanquet to read. Surprise! His work was great. #screenwriting

    @sapphicbill 👥 MSN Messenger, later rebranded as Windows Live Messenger, was a cross-platform instant messaging client developed by Microsoft. It connected to the Microsoft Messenger service while also having compatibility with Yahoo! Messenger and Facebook Messenger.

    Has anyone else's @Facebook Messenger been BRUTALLY slow for a little while now? Like I mean obnoxiously slow for opening the messages tab and scrolling back through a conversation. Seems to be a desktop problem only.

    @acccent @noneuclideangrl Yeah. I’m down to maybe 4 people I “need” FB messenger to talk to. One day that’ll be 0.

    @Celcom how is it that your 1111 customer service line is experiencing high call volume and that both your twitter account and fb messenger are not responsive? Slow just like your internet line.
