    @123midnite Nah, I can't find any fixes for that problem either (I was curious), just stuff for developers. Twitter links in FB messenger sometimes do that to me.

    In 2019 all AirAsia call centers have been shut down. There are no phone numbers available anymore and CS staff can be reached on Twitter only. Automatic answers from a chatbot are available on live chat, WhatsApp, WeChat or FB Messenger. @airasia @AVA_airasia You are cheating !

    @HelloFreshUK have messaged via FB messenger 3 days ago but no response as yet. Had a few irritating issues recently and then a major one this which I want to address ASAP. What is the best way to do this?

    @NSPCC Respect work u do hugely but ur way off mark on the Facebook messenger stuff w/ @10DowningStreet. Ur being used to frame GCHQ/MI5 public surveillance legislation as a child protection issue. If there are CP responsibilities here they're with parents' lack of supervision.

    @jacksettleman Believe it or not, Facebook Messenger is still a great way to send yourself content without losing quality. For some reason, my GMail has file restrictions, and Facebook has worked no problem for some of the larger files I needed transferred.

  • spruebox Raven (@spruebox) reported

    Facebook Messenger is a piece of crap. Even wrote their support to complain about the problem, but of course couldn't be bothered to get back to me. Idiots.

    @STOKESSTORES Guys please reply to your customers! I’ve been trying to reach out to you from a few days now, but you’re unreachable everywhere. can’t call your phone number, your email isnt accepting emails, you’re not replying on FB Messenger, you’re not replying on the Customer Service Chat.

    @christitustech Unfortunately, many people in my country use Facebook Messenger, so I can't really do that without causing many problems. I'd love to get rid of it if I could, though.
