    @AirFranceUK Apologies are not much good to me to be honest … a direct message on Twitter and fb messenger didn’t even warrant a reply . You are very good at taking money for flights and baggage but your customer service is the worst I’ve ever experienced.

    @Hootsuite_Help can you help me with communicating with a person, the Answer Bot is useless and Facebook messenger gave me one response and nothing since. I need to communicate with a human to solve this problem.

    @oh_softboii Please ask your friend ONE thing: ACTIVATE "SHARE LOCATION" FROM FB MESSENGER. Get the location, then call the police to report and ask for help. Give the police the location.
