    Can't log into Facebook messenger bc the login code doesn't show up on my phone until it expires and won't work in the app... I'm tired.. I don't even want to use the damn app but there are army friends with no other contact with me😩

  • kyeoulhime 👸🏻| ありがとう ハイキュー‼︎ 🏐🧡 (@kyeoulhime) reported

    @talk2GLOBE can you reply pls? Resolve my disappearing data allocation. There are also others who have the same problem. I am paying for a 30.10gb data why was it reduced to 14.43gb*? (*typo on last tweet) No, your fb messenger bot & twitter dm is not working.

  • KezzachiVA KezzaChi (@KezzachiVA) reported

    Is anyone else having issues with @Facebook Messenger. Nothing is sending through!! I thought It was connection, but then I was blocked from Facebook for a few days. Then I got it reset, and now it's not working again! What the heck?!

  • emilylynmillard Emily (@emilylynmillard) reported

    @newlook I’ve been trying to find out where my order is as it was meant to be in your Falkirk branch on Wednesday and I’m absolutely appalled at your attempts to help. No reply on Whatsapp, facebook messenger, live chat is “offline” and your bot is useless.

  • PeteEccles Pete Eccles (@PeteEccles) reported

    @TessutiHelpTeam I have tried contacting you via every option available, Twitter, Facebook, live chat and online form, I have been told twice, via the online form and FB messenger that you will get back to me, Where are you? Dreadful service

  • AlecMuffett Alec Muffett (@AlecMuffett) reported

    @DavidRabinad I did. The results back then was Facebook Messenger Secret Conversations. The issue now is government attempts to "backdoor" the large E2EE platforms.

  • ItsTexasT03 💵iDefinition's Credit Repair Specialist💵 (@ItsTexasT03) reported

    I not about to go answer 100 questions to someone who can only call me on fb messenger neega get you a phone service 🙄

  • pimlico111 Lee (@pimlico111) reported

    @AStrangerJ @smokincabbie @Thinkware Well any problems I’ve had,they have sorted them out via Facebook messenger ...I’ve got two phones,so sometimes one doesn’t download the video but the other one does..but every camera is not fault free..but 5 years use out of one is good

  • RahulSi07921896 Rahul Singhal (@RahulSi07921896) reported

    @qatarairways I have been calling your customer service number to get my parent's flights rebooked and I get the message to communicate over Facebook messenger or Twitter. You aren't responding on either platforms, phone numbers don't work. No help from @qatarairways

  • lisa_pardo Lisa Pardo (@lisa_pardo) reported

    @Qantas your service is absolutely pathetic. I need help with a FF booking issue and waited on the phone for almost three hours, sent messages to you on FB messenger, and nothing. Premium prices, sub premium service!

  • jane_hurghada1 Jane Seymour (@jane_hurghada1) reported

    @CommBank Can someone from @cba answer me! Sre cards working at overseas atms, hotels etc., this is urgent, no-one answering on FB messenger. Ok app not working, but why no communication with customers either, not good.

  • thepinkestlips Queen W (@thepinkestlips) reported

    I told the food stamp ppl I cannot afford food they need to give me my stamps … they really sent a message back stating here’s a food pantry in the meantime 😭. Man **** yal! & btw if u didn’t know you can contact them and they respond on Facebook messenger. The issue be fixed

  • iamsupaJeanJore ⓙⓔⓐⓝⓙⓞⓡⓔ™ (@iamsupaJeanJore) reported

    @CebuPacificAir i have been contacting you for about 2 weeks now but your customer service won't assist anything. The contact numbers are unreachable and the chatbot on fb messenger not addressing the concern even reaching out on emails for response.

  • domfromlondon Domfromlondon (@domfromlondon) reported

    @IrishCanadian2 Ahh exactly what I wanted to talk to you about , I sent you a message on Facebook messenger , was hoping you could help me with something.

  • MightBeCuzins wait... we might be cuzins (@MightBeCuzins) reported

    If I continue to use Facebook Messenger, but shut down the rest of that hell-site, will that mess with the apps that use Facebook for authentication?

  • twkid08 Nathan Kile (@twkid08) reported

    @secrtgrl_68 Lol dang so you talking to me on FB messenger is apart of your ritual huh…I see how far I’ve slid down

  • jane_hurghada1 Jane Seymour (@jane_hurghada1) reported

    @CommBank Thanks, you can't ontrol the IT problem, but communication isn't good. 5 hrs to answer and 7 hrs ago sent a message on FB messenger, until now, no reply.

  • ReynanteMariano Reynante Mariano (@ReynanteMariano) reported

    @gsmarena_com I hope they can fix it because i have many issues with the MIUI 12.5 update on my REDMI 10X 5G. Too many glitches, bugs and laggy Ui. Sometimes when i open my home screen the animations are dropping so bad like i think 15-25fp. Phone heats up to 40°c when i only use Fb messenger

  • luiscruz Luis Cruz (@luiscruz) reported

    @Converge_CSU here's a privacy concern for you: -I'm NOT a subscriber -I receive SMS from you regarding account issues -This has been happening for years -I've tried emailing, FB Messenger, & tagging you in posts, all to no avail Maybe THIS will get an actual human's attention

    @CESCLimited our area has no water logging since 3pm yesterday, due to poor workmanship quality by your technical team rain damaged the repaired underground wire. We have power outage for almost 36 hours & no one attended or enquired. We reached out on FB messenger & 1912 umpteen

  • HikewithRichard Richard, Fully Vaccinated - QR code coming soon:-) (@HikewithRichard) reported

    @NanouuSymeon Migrate to the next service, and wait for that to shutdown. From ICQ to yahoo messenger, to MSN messenger, to SMS, to myspace, to facebook, to twitter, to jaiku,to plurk, to facebook messenger, to whatsapp, to signal, to telegram, and the list goes on. We're migrants. ;-)

  • phoebe_kathleen peebs (@phoebe_kathleen) reported

    @sarahschauer why do i have to keep seeing this question!! the mormon girl trying to convert me over facebook messenger gave me a whole lesson on this exact question and it was SO terrible taking “we have to go through hard things so we can be more like jesus & be purified for god 🥰”

  • utdjoeb jo-b (@utdjoeb) reported

    My church deaconness just came to greet my wife. She had problems with her fb messenger, while trying to fix it, I realised she's been exchanging nudes with Indian men. I don't want to even go about the lifestyle she and her husband portray and preach. God knows our hearts.

  • MLP_Esq MLP Esq (@MLP_Esq) reported

    I opened my FB messenger for the first time today since I killed my Facebook more than a year ago. Honestly, I didn’t know it still worked with the FB account shut down.

  • Ohenoki BrokenShadows (@Ohenoki) reported

    @OregonRolledA20 Haha Facebook Messenger stopped me posting a message in a private group because of a spelling error...
