    @Argos_Online Your customer service is very poor. Why is it not possible for me to make a complaint. Your Twitter Live chat and FB messenger are a joke. Can someone please give me an email address that is monitored by humans, so that I can make a complaint about your service.

    @AskPayPal I am currently on hold and been on hold for over an hour. Tried to communicate through Facebook messenger and they have not responded back. I was on hold yesterday for an hour too and still have not spoken to anyone who can help me with my account.

    @ghostcatbce @canadapostcorp Over the last 2 years when I’ve had issues with big companies I’ve tried phoning, using Contact Us on websites, direct emails, tagging them in Twitter posts and using FB Messenger. Messenger always gets a response and action. Usually don’t even hear back on the others. Good luck!

    @CashSupport sooooo again when are they expected to clear? Cause I’m still waiting on an email, Fb messenger hasn’t responded, and y’all keep ignoring my dms, and tweets so I guess I gotta blow y’all notifications up again. Like this is an app with horrible customer service.

    @nanoff94 OK, so I'm NOT the only one having computer issues today? OneDrive just seriously f*cked me over by deleting a bunch of stuff from my desktop when I tried to turn off auto backup and sync. Meanwhile, my dad's Facebook Messenger account just got hacked, apparently. 2020 sucks ***!

    Facebook Messenger is down apparently. What else is new?

    July Nothing much happened, I guess, other than chatting with a friend on Facebook Messenger, expressing the same problem. And I continued writing Lorelei Chronicles.

    When most of your family & friends say iPhones suck. 😭 I’m starting to believe them. I haven’t been able to log onto fb app nor fb messenger since November. “Error login” must mean stop updating your iPhone. 💔

    @JoelHoekstra13 your Facebook messenger not working?

  • Rocket_Co Joel (Rocket) 🌈🚀🎄 (@Rocket_Co) reported

    @SciencePharmer I've thankfully limited it to only using fb messenger. I can't handle normal fb, even before this pandemic. The amount of pseudoscience and antivaxxer old classmates I constantly had to try to help then fully block and move on I was so done.

  • loneheart92 Sweetheart⁷⟭⟬ NSFW 💜🌈✊🏿 (@loneheart92) reported

    I can't even open my Facebook messenger because ppl keep spreading misinformation videos about how this is nanotechnology or a way to kill off the population. If they don't want it give it to someone else who does. **** it. You can't help stupid.

  • aquagirl1024 Kate 𓆏 (@aquagirl1024) reported

    My phone is broken and I dont need the new one until Monday so if any of yall need me, message me here or on facebook messenger!

  • JustResisting Justin Russell ✍️ #VoteBlue ✍️ #ActOut ✍️ #Resist (@JustResisting) reported

    @MercurySchroepp @mattyglesias Facebook owns Facebook Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp. For a short time almost every messaging app available was owned by Facebook. WhatsApp's founder came out and made Signal in order to provide an alternative. That predatory control is why Facebook needs to be broken up.
