    @TheSuperFrizzle I've made a couple sales out side of ebay like this. One was bc they were overseas and I don't do international shipping. Plus the sale saved me seller fees. The other one we went through fb messenger without issue. So ya never know. Not all people are trying to scam.

  • Pestontour2 Sonia Thorley (@Pestontour2) reported

    British Airways Customer Service is non existent . There is no live chat, the call centre IVR just says they are too busy and hangs up. They stated that I did not cancel in the 24hour period, I tried. They have communicated on FB messenger but no refund voucher only

  • lindsaybea Lindsay-Bea Davis (@lindsaybea) reported

    @CullingSongs My mom got so mad at me for not answering those calls, but it should also be noted she made them on FB MESSENGER like anyone would use that phone service intentionally.

    @WestJet I have been on hold for more than 2 hours to figure out changes to my flight. Your Facebook messenger app was no help - nor was the website you direct us to. The “call me back” function says to schedule a time for next Tuesday!! Would appreciate an update on ur call ctr

    @VOXI_Uk latest from voxi via Facebook messenger after ignoring me for 21 hours. "Sorry but we're not an instant messaging service". That's the first bit of truth I've had from voxi yet.

  • a_pathak5 Aishwarya Pathak (@a_pathak5) reported

    @walmarthelp is there any way to connect to customer service? I am unable to reach any associate via Call/FB messenger or the website. My order got sent to the incorrect Walmart location and I’m unable to move it. Need help!!

  • wesderby Wes Derby (@wesderby) reported from Mesa, Arizona

    Interesting. So, FB Messenger has fixed the issue where hitting return on a BlueTooth keyboard didn’t send a message. Twitter still hasn’t fixed this for DM’s on the iOS app.

  • JJRothery Thee 5G Chip is Activated, Thanks Pfizer🍁 (@JJRothery) reported

    As of this tweet I have phoned, emailed, sent information as requested via FB Messenger...and none of the above has gotten a response. So now you get the tweet thread. I'm pointing out a flaw in your customer service that really needs improving, @WestJet . This is the 2nd time.

  • JRawal67 Xceed Driver Trainer (@JRawal67) reported

    Ok this is beyond a joke. Told average wait is 14 mins. Still on hold exactly 53mins 59sec and counting 'Thank you for holding the line' I have no choice you can't answer via twitter DM or Facebook messenger as advised by you WHY!! took my money fast enough #Help #wastingmytime

  • Mbachichi mbachi kamwendo (@Mbachichi) reported

    @flyethiopian then on your Facebook messenger the agent just introduces themselves with on reply? #ethiopianairlines How are your 24 hours calculated? Because you are quick to cancel a reservation but can’t be asked to offer effective customer service? #youhavetodobetter

  • oyversen oyversen (∞) (@oyversen) reported

    Frens, I write this in English because I want everyone I know to make it and unfortunately most of my norwegian IRL friends are not into crypto. But I really recommend checking out @AscentPad (my broskies, send me a PM om FB messenger need any help regarding crypto etc).

  • GensanBoy Paco The Dog (@GensanBoy) reported

    Globe having trouble sending and receiving sms and calls. Good thing we have other means to communicate like sms. Viber. FB messenger to the rescue.

  • keirabrown14 Keira Brown (@keirabrown14) reported

    @ScottishPower I’ve been on hold for over an hour. I’ve been cut off twice before this. FB messenger offered help then palmed us off. No live chat response. This service is unbelievably poor.

  • THR33TsMom Ty Baker (@THR33TsMom) reported

    @Equifax can you check your FB DM please?! You have my name wrong on my online profile and I cannot edit your error but it is not a report issue so there is no dispute that will fix it. Administrative error. Please check FB Messenger. Thx!!!

  • PeterHouston8 Peter Houston (@PeterHouston8) reported

    @HiveHomeUK 2 days ago I sent a complete history of my long running saga of camera problems on facebook messenger to Daniel W at Hive as instructed by him. Once again I have heard nothing. Is there a better method of contacting so that I can send the complete history once again

  • RichPreston Rich Preston (@RichPreston) reported

    Some people had questions when I posted about this previously, especially off the back of stories highlighting issues around women's safety, so just to be clear: - I posted a message on our local FB group - We communicated through FB messenger. No phone numbers were swapped
