    @AnsarCh777 @chenweihua @AFP I’m not the one who has the Facebook messenger icon surrounding his face on Twitter, that’s you. Go learn manhood. The Hindus have embarrassed the pakis many times and you guys ran to China like beggars for help. You haven’t even convinced them to convert to Islam. Big losers.

  • Cheyenn02855996 Cheyenne Hemmer (@Cheyenn02855996) reported

    So I just off with a friend on the computer on Facebook messenger and the live streaming on Instagram causes my battery to go down. So what I am going to do for next week's show is I am going to try and use live streaming here on Twitter and see how that works out.

    @smarTrikeUS I live in the UK and have tried contacting you via email, Facebook messenger and telephone, as the STR7 we bought for my son's first birthday has a broken brake, which we noticed on first use. I have not heard back or been able to speak to anyone. Highly disappointed with this.

  • RiaxElisabeth Ria-Elisabeth🤍 (@RiaxElisabeth) reported

    @PureGym why has my account been ‘cancelled’, your phone line keeps hanging up on me and your Facebook messenger help team don’t reply?

  • ItsMadaleine 🔴 Maddy (@ItsMadaleine) reported

    @KawaiiFoxita We uninstalled FB messenger years ago bcuz every time the alert went off, it triggered anxiety. It was almost always a **** pic from some random dude 🙄🤮 And unfortunately, we've experienced similar problems you have. Have the majority of women/girls gone through this? 😔

    @JaneDavis13 @lightinthebox Go on Facebook messenger as they actually seem to help. However, it cost me £19 to return the item yesterday. It’s an absolute con!

  • ROBERT_Rhodes65 Robert Rhodes (@ROBERT_Rhodes65) reported

    @mkelly007 Find the ones who want help and see if the City and non-profit organization like mine can help get these people help and shelter them till we get them on their feet. I have ideas for this and strongly suggest that prop B be removed Contact me here or on my Facebook messenger

    @eDreams hello Sir, Flight to Usa via UAE didn’t allow to board Indians, I am trying to reach you guys for the refund. You don’t have proper customer service number to call and tried to reach on fb messenger, Please respond

  • jbgraeber John B. Graeber 🚀 (@jbgraeber) reported

    @courtneyellis Every once in a while FB Messenger will test my resolve by putting an alert icon on the app itself (which I struggle mightily to ignore). The only apparent remedy to make it disappear is to enable push notifications. My resolve is shaken, but has not yet broken.

    @Techstructicon @chenweihua @AFP Seriously u must have a screw loose in that hollow head 9f yours making q big deal out of a fb messenger dp seriously go get some help b4 its too late u ****

  • gledhill I don't make boilers (@gledhill) reported

    @DaveGorman @ThomasAtcheson Probably hoping people will follow them so they can spam their links using DMs. I get a lot of unsolicited stuff like that on Facebook Messenger. At least Twitter does something about it when reported, FB always tell me that they haven’t broken any rules.

  • AdamConwayIE Adam Conway @ XDA (@AdamConwayIE) reported

    @ishanagarwal24 I had some issues with Facebook Messenger notifs, but when I disabled MIUI battery saver in the app settings it was perfectly fine. What's been up with your FP sensor? I've noticed at times it can be slow, but the face unlock tends to handle it instead

    The minute you get an idea, write that **** down. • Put it in the Notes app in your phone • send yourself the idea in a text to yourself • send yourself a message in FB Messenger • send yourself a damn DM on IG

    @NewLookHelp hello, please could I have some help with an issue with my order? I ordered it on 7th April and it still hasn’t arrived. I have messaged on Facebook Messenger but have not had replies. Thanks

  • mommykjobo KJo (@mommykjobo) reported

    @IPSY @newkirk_abby @IPSYCare I’m having the same issue with no response. Email was sent as well as FB messenger request from last night. I really hope this is fixed soon and you keep some options for folks to personalize with. Please advise what needs to be done!

  • tillyshubara99 tillyshubara99 (@tillyshubara99) reported

    @ASOS Your contact system/ customer service is appalling, it used to be simple and easy via facebook messenger but that no longer works, I cannot contact you via twitter and your “live chat” also does not work. Your options for help are useless and this seems like my only hope.

  • LucindaTwitch LucindaLove (@LucindaTwitch) reported

    My fb messenger keeps giving me notifications from conversations I had in 2020 and its really spinning me out like please settle down

  • XBLFlynn it's pronounced JIF (@XBLFlynn) reported

    The biggest issue I found was getting a video call from Facebook messenger... Even ignoring the call cause the game to go black and reload for over 10 seconds while I was in a match with another player.

  • Solar___Jetman Chris Maddocks (@Solar___Jetman) reported

    @TalkmobileUK I have an issue with FB messenger, I can't connect on data says no connection. Reading this could be a faulty SIM. Also I don't get HD calls, is that normal? I use to on Vodafone. Would it be fine for a replacement SIM?

  • Teacher94266421 Teachertalk (@Teacher94266421) reported

    @beautybay I bought something which I need to return. Online form doesn't work. Facebook messenger kicked me out. Can you help?
