  • buckejv Lisa Buck (@buckejv) reported

    Trying to cancel a flight and finding it impossible. Phone service isn't available. FB messenger can't retrieve the reservation. Website says I can't do the cancellation or change on-line. And call-back service is scheduled for next Friday, well after the flight. Suggestions?

    Amazing, there are so many friends on my FB messenger list and not one person I can reach for advice when I'm in a crisis and need help. Oh well, I guess I'll continue.

  • AngelaMcConne11 Angela McConnell (@AngelaMcConne11) reported

    @Argos_Online I’ve wasted 2 hours on Facebook messenger, your website chat bot and calls just to be told you can’t get me through to anyone to help. Waiting since November for refunds and your customer service is a disgrace. Can a human contact me to resolve this?

  • melsypop Melissa (@melsypop) reported

    @NewLookHelp is anyone here to help at all? I’ve tried tweets, DM’s, Facebook messenger, WhatsApp and the chat bot is useless!!

  • shakermaker90s Pauly (@shakermaker90s) reported

  • kozjegyzo Rob (kozjegyzo) (@kozjegyzo) reported

    @backlon I never understood the iMessage hype until I switched to an iPhone. Yeah it's super convenient, but I wouldn't miss it at if it was gone. Everyone I know has and uses FB Messenger and/or some other DM service so there are so many substitutes

  • melsypop Melissa (@melsypop) reported

    @NewLookHelp @LisaLettis Wow someone IS actually working today and responding to some tweets??? Not mine apparently? Tried tweets, DM’s, Facebook messenger, WhatsApp and the useless chat bot thing!! Is this the New Look customer service?

  • unfoldedbeagle thecrowdisuntruth (@unfoldedbeagle) reported

    @SleepwellCap Neither does so many people in the US using Facebook messenger help the case. Tons of poor people who don’t have phone plans use fb messenger

  • j4rvs Mike Jarvis (@j4rvs) reported

    2/3... Facebook messenger and it's unsatisfactoryly automated - no good to me. Then I try the online help, also automated rubbish. I just need to speak to someone who might be able to help, but it's probably too late now. @sainsburys

  • matt_lardie Matt Lardie (@matt_lardie) reported

    Can someone else with Boomer parents help me figure out how to explain to my mother how absolutely maddening it is to try to follow along with a series of messages she sends via text, IG message, and Facebook messenger all in the same day? Do other people experience this?

  • hopeforhumanit3 hopeforhumanity (@hopeforhumanit3) reported

    @backlon Other than USA it is not an issue. People uses WhatsApp, signal, Facebook messenger etc. On the contrary all my family members uses iPhone but our chat choice is WhatsApp.

  • melsypop Melissa (@melsypop) reported

    @newlook Why isn’t anyone responding to my TWEETS, DM’S, FACEBOOK MESSENGER, WHATSAPP?!!! You have no phone number so how do I get help with an order??!!! @NewLookHelp

  • czern_y amy (@czern_y) reported

    @VodafoneUK your online chat function isn't working and the phone number you provide on your website doesn't help at all. I've even tried using VOXI's chat service on both the voxi site and facebook messenger. nothing works. how can I speak to a person about the issue I'm having?

  • KAS_stoner Kas (@KAS_stoner) reported

    For some reason I don't have the fb messenger likes/themes on Instagram even when I'm already connected to fb. Instagram still has a basic white background on my new phone. @instagram help?

  • melsypop Melissa (@melsypop) reported

    @newlook @NewLookHelp is anyone here to help at all? I’ve tried tweets, DM’s, Facebook messenger, WhatsApp and the chat bot is useless!!

  • PaulNew04518092 Paul Newell (@PaulNew04518092) reported

    @Qantas Serious 2 hrs on hold and 2 days to get a response via Facebook messenger, you need to resource and upgrade your customer service or people will start flight Virgin (I know I will). Ridiculous!
