    @eBARnews I'm trying to reach Cynthia Laird. She reached out to me on FB but FB Messenger isn't working. I sent you a msg through your contact form, but the form doesn't provide a confirmation so I don't know if that went through either. Tech issues today!

    @MSROPER10 @caviterginsoy It looks to me like Facebook messenger, or maybe just the iPhone messaging app. Either way it's a messaging service.

    MTN is the most useless company on the face of the planet. No help. Billing incorrect. They don’t answer their FB messenger! They expect you to call from all over the world to get help and you sit for hours on the line. USELESS, USELESS, USELESS

    @SportsDirect_CS I've been trying to contact customer service via Facebook messenger. I got an initial response from someone saying they will look in to it and have heard nothing since. My order was sent to my old address (my fault), and apparently returned to Evri?

  • Pamiko9 Pamiko (@Pamiko9) reported

    @gomo_ph OMG how do I get ahold of customer service? Your automated responses on FB Messenger is so awful!

    Facebook messenger not working on laptop, just a blank box, what is causing this, okay on mobile phone

  • RealJohn1776 RealJohn1776 (@RealJohn1776) reported

    @Zanrkend Looks like a classic phishing attempt that is often on Facebook messenger. Someone you know gets their account hacked, link sent to all contacts. Person goes to link and needs to login, only for password to be stolen, rinse repeat.

  • 0wen0924 Oli🌸 (@0wen0924) reported from Baguio City, Cordillera Administrative Region

    Is FB messenger down? It is logging out forcefully.

  • xxx_kimbo_xxx Kim (@xxx_kimbo_xxx) reported

    @apchara PS Does not help that FB messenger still isn't working for me!

  • BeanLeMoo Bean Le Moo (@BeanLeMoo) reported

    Tech help needed - how do I get messages on WhatsApp, fb messenger and iMessage not to show up a preview of the message when my phone is locked. Can’t for the life of me sort it …brain is not functioning today. But I need to make sure mini moo doesn’t see contents of anything

  • MPowersNorrell Mandy Powers Norrell (@MPowersNorrell) reported from Lancaster, South Carolina

    @cstegmaier Yes! I didn’t even know what it was years ago and didn’t have it on my phone and ultimately found out a constituent was furious w/me for not fixing an issue - though she’d never called or emailed my office. Only used Facebook messenger. 😳

  • loose_danny Danny Loose (@loose_danny) reported

    @JuicyGirls7 Send me a friend request on Facebook messenger, then we will chat and get down to buisiness

  • susieocall susan lewis (@susieocall) reported

    @newlook Having made several attempts to resolve a click and collect issue via your Facebook messenger, WhatsApp and twitter 'help' options I am still without a resolution. Is there a Customer Service telephone number available to provide help?

  • heathr Heather Gold (@heathr) reported

    You've sent me a customer service phone number that doesn't work @AerLingus (885) 567 8224 and I'm unable to get a person, not a bot , to answer your DMs or chat on your website (frankly I'm surprised your co would use FB messenger for customer support given it's track record)

  • frederikdiamond FREDERIK DIAMOND (@frederikdiamond) reported

    While we're on the topic of problems with my S22 Ultra: From time to time, I'll not receive any notification sounds from apps. For instance, if someone sends me a message on FB Messenger, my phone will just ignore it. Super annoying.

  • the_wilderless grace in the wilderless (@the_wilderless) reported

    We have game-changing tech all over the place, people mocking up apps that do absolute magic, Meanwhile Facebook messenger is the only site I can think of that not only can’t fix typos, but actively CAUSES them by jumping the sues or all over as I type

    @sefkateliorgtr oh GOD, STOP THIS MURDER FOR PEOPLE! I offer to help an orphan. Write to me on Facebook messenger!
