    @newlook Having made several attempts to resolve a click and collect issue via your Facebook messenger, WhatsApp and twitter 'help' options I am still without a resolution. Is there a Customer Service telephone number available to provide help?

    @tjm585 @MarchingWith7 Google even recently engineered the Messages app on its own side to fix the way iMessage spammed emoji-reacts into mixed-OS group chats, since Apple refused to do so. IDK, I've got Discord, Signal, Slack, FB Messenger. It's 2023, SMS / anything adjacent = no use-case for me.

    Sent a DM through Twitter and also reached out through FB messenger. Rogers support helped me reset my password and I finally have access to my email. Still lot sure of what the underlying problem was, but suggest you try one of these methods to get support

    Tech help needed - how do I get messages on WhatsApp, fb messenger and iMessage not to show up a preview of the message when my phone is locked. Can’t for the life of me sort it …brain is not functioning today. But I need to make sure mini moo doesn’t see contents of anything

    tip: if you use fb messenger and have suddenly stopped getting notifications, hold down on the messenger icon to go into app settings, then battery usage, then click on unrestricted (might be labelled something slightly different depending on brand)

    @UBAGroup @OluwadepoJerer1 It is a shame that a transaction of N150,000 dispense error transaction was not reversed since February 3 after several complains via a branch office, Twitter, email and Facebook messenger. This business money for God sake. Pls I need urgent help.

    @Coles Already done all that via Facebook messenger only to be told, "Not our product, not our problem." Obviously very little regard for customer safety. I've messaged Pepsi Co directly.

    @gryphon_katsu I got this with Facebook Messenger the other day Why would an app decide to force-close itself and update WHILE IT'S OPEN, that seems like a really stupid and easily avoidable issue lol

    @MSROPER10 @caviterginsoy It looks to me like Facebook messenger, or maybe just the iPhone messaging app. Either way it's a messaging service.
