    @CreativeGoodsNY I’ve reached out via Facebook messenger and via email. My order was not filled correctly (what I ordered was not what I was sent). However, I have received no response. Help!

  • Michell24186175 Michelle (@Michell24186175) reported

    @sunday_citizen_ why can I not get a hold of anyone in customer service ??? I am missing part of my order. If someone does not respond to me today I am returning both of my orders. No one is responding to my FB messenger or my chat on your website. #sundaycitizen #CustomerService

  • davidixon David Dixon (@davidixon) reported

    @jeyfree21 @AsteadWesley good Android phones aren't really all that much cheaper than the equivalent iPhones. i think the bigger issue is that in the US, people just use the stock messaging app on their phones whereas Whatsapp, Signal, Facebook Messenger, etc are more popular elsewhere

  • brittney9246 Too tired to even try to care anymore (@brittney9246) reported

    I upgraded from an iphone 11 to an iphone 13 and I can not get my fb messenger to work at all. When I try to log in, I get the following message. I have done everything recommended to try and “fix” this. So, as of now, I can’t use my messenger at all.

  • joewintergreen Joe Wintergreen (@joewintergreen) reported

    It's maybe the last free online "service" I can remember using that was actually free and actually a service. It was ubiquitous, Facebook Messenger replaced it, but then Facebook fell heavily out of use and favour with many folks, who are now off FB but still on its Messenger
