    @PLDT_Cares Your fb messenger sucks. You make subscribers wait for so long to the point of them losing patience and ending the transaction. You should fix you lines well because everybody is paying right! Best in putol kayo pag nadelay nga ang bayad.

    @thelaurenobrien Hi there! Constant connection drops are definitely not the experience we want for our members. We’d love the chance to make this right! Please connect with us through our website/app chat, or send us a quick DM on FB Messenger, IG, or X so we can dive in and help. -Princess F

    @TXTeslaCowboy I still use Instagram and it has no problem draining battery, but Facebook always did when I used to use it on my iPhone previously. Not terrible, but it definitely was way worse with it installed and using it daily along with FB messenger Way better after deleting it.

    Had a thing where FB messenger took over my phone, displaying over every other app, with no way to get it to go away short of restarting my phone. I'm about ready to burn down that entire ******* company over this bullshit. Absolute ******* ********.

    @TMFAssociates You have to think, who actually texts anymore? Thats all the service can do currently. Me and my friends exclusively communicate via FB Messenger, id say 90+% of the people i know use this as well, texting is dead therefore Starlinks service is redundant.

    @ryanripkenshow Believe it or not, I suggested to Dan Duguette to try Trey in the OF via FB messenger. He responded "That is a good idea". I told him I was coming down to Orioles spring training the next week. He said Trey would be out there today.

    @AppleSupport you really need to do something about not being able to send picture messages to android devices . It’s speaks volumes about the lack of tech in the iPhone . I’ve done all the suggested fixes and continue to have the same issue. Have resorted to fb messenger instead

    Cool FTR feature - sending Ghost data challenges to anyone using any messaging service you like - Whatsapp, FB messenger, email.. anything the OS supports. A custom encoded image gets attached and you just copy it to the clipboard to let the game decode it!

What to do if Facebook Messenger is not working

How to interpret these reports

Direct reports are submitted by visitors. Locations may be estimated from their connection or supplied by the reporter. A low local count does not establish that service is working; the service-wide status and local report totals describe different areas. How our outage detection works
