  • Whip0fAlchemy 🏳️‍⚧️Wild is The Wind (@Whip0fAlchemy) reported

    And yes, I used to be active on FB YEARS AGO and FB Messenger until it was compromised beyond help. I was a member of multiple David Bowie fan groups & had many friendships of over 15 years, so though leaving the platform was for my safety, it caused an unfortunate disconnect.

  • jpNla Jason Pinyan (@jpNla) reported

    @VerizonSupport I chatted online with support on FB messenger. He confirmed there is an outage in the Los Angeles area and could take 12-14 hours to resolve.

    @CebuPacificAir Luuuuh. Your FB messenger customer service isn't really helpful. 😭 Just give me a concrete update 😭

  • queennielopezz Queennie Lopez (@queennielopezz) reported

    @cathaypacific Tried contacting you thru call, FB messenger, Twitter DMs but no luck. Waited an hour for someone to pick up my call and no one picked it up. I have a flight 40hrs from now and no one is answering. What service is this? Very disappointing.

  • kgrsajid Kazi Rabbany - building SaaS ✪ (@kgrsajid) reported

    @sabakarimm Interesting 💡 but why can't fb messenger or whatsapp solve that problem?

  • niallmurphy_ie Niall Murphy (@niallmurphy_ie) reported

    @Suntransfers hello. I am due to use your service next week. I have tried ringing, mailing and Facebook messenger to confirm booking. Please contact me asap.

  • Landry76 Landry Corkery (@Landry76) reported

    @DavidRedstone2 I tried to contact fb about their community standards. Their fb messenger just gives automated responses, their phone number won't let you talk to a live person and there is no email. You have to write them via US Postal Service.

  • hanniepal1004 your hanniepal ✨️SVT🤝🏻SJ BEST YEAR ⑰✨️ (@hanniepal1004) reported

    Stop telling me @CebuPacificAir to reach out to your FB messenger customer service, kasi hello, AM NOT TALKING WITH A LEGIT PERSON BUT A BOT. CAN YOU JUST UPDATE ME WHETHER WE CAN GET OUR LUGGAGE BACK OR NOT? Update lang hinihingi namin. 'Wag nyo naman ipagdamot.

  • neilshanks63 neilshanks63 (@neilshanks63) reported

    @westelm I have reached out to West Elm via FB messenger, Twitter and attempts into Customer Service without any luck reaching someone. Looking to place an order and a first time customer promo code as the one I was provided via signing with my emails isn’t working. Thank you.

  • DebjeetDebnath I'm Debu (@DebjeetDebnath) reported

    @MobiKwikSWAT @MobiKwik @BipinSingh This is your customer support where no one picks the calls and only bots reply in your help section or fb messenger or email. Worst app.
