    No internet again. Please check DM @PLDT_Cares . So you're not assisting customers via X anymore? FB messenger is useless. What's the use of ur X account if unable to help?

    Cannot get over how bad @WestJet service is. Not the fault of the front-line folks, but no support on the phones, online links that are broken, and you have to use Facebook Messenger to chat to an agent. What a sad decline.

    My sister was recently scammed online. Via @facebook messenger and @google chat. Someone she trusted was hacked and she was told to send @Apple gift cards -of course. Seems all these companies could help more shutting scammers down. They're pervasive on FB.

    @umobile Why your app is not working? I am unable to login or topup. Your Artificial intelligence (stupidity) based bot on fb messenger is taking me circles not letting me connect with humans to resolve the query. Kindly get some humans to respond.

    @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?

    This week Amazon Prime wouldn’t let me renew my membership with a new card, Facebook messenger keeps saying I have 3 messages even when I have 0, and Lord Twitter is once again showing the whole word his ***. The richest men in the world run these service and they all suck.

    @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.

    @FlyFrontier You screwed me over AGAIN! Now I’m trying to use the $200 voucher you sent and it’s only loaded with $125 and expires tonight. Can’t call for help because apparently customers would rather be on hold for hours over Facebook messenger or your website. How can this be fixed?!

    @metronetfiber Customer Care has no info on my outage. FB messenger has auto reply about not what wanting to hear and to contact customer svc (expect same here). Website is to have area to check status of service and there is NONE. Over couple hours lost already.

    @mamoribaek anypass refreshes everytime you close the app, so the best way to do this is through FB messenger or any messaging service w a chat head that can be opened over other apps without disrupting the app. so you can ss and send the image via messenger

    Is anyone else experiencing an issue with @Facebook messenger where a message goes unread for hours but then when the person opens it, it says they read it at the same minute you sent it?

    @Breaking911 You don't buy oxy from some stranger via Facebook messenger. She also had ********* - she's a druggie. She knew the consequences of her choices. On the other hand, the dealers and distributors should be taken down in general.

    Does anyone else have issues with Facebook Messenger not sending notifications a lot of the time? It's been like that for a year or so for me. I probably get notified for about two thirds of my message overall.
