  • jmgi_ (@jmgi_) reported

    @wpink77 I don't know. Nevertheless, I think the best option would be to send him a message through FB messenger and see if he's receiving funds or looking for help. 🙏🏻

  • OliviaL22538175 Olivia Lewis (@OliviaL22538175) reported

    I think Facebook Messenger is the worst application ever built. You can't reliably send a small image. You can't reliably send anything. It's a messaging application so one would expect this. What a terrible contribution from a company that has provided ok tools.

  • WozzaHP Charlotte Worrall (@WozzaHP) reported

    I wonder if anyone on here can help - I’m trying to recover deleted messages from fb messenger, which I’m hoping to use as evidence for something. I’ve downloaded the back up zip file, but they are not there... surely I can find them somehow??

    @sainsburys So I reported a problem I experienced in one of your stores on FB messenger on Tuesday but no one has replied. I realise your website only says 'contact us' but I rather took it as read that implied someone would be concerned and reply. Can you help?

    @jessieabbate I should have said I hate FB messenger, and I've only used it for texting. I only use it when others prefer it for various reasons. And yes, I hear you on the problem with calls. It does teach patience!

  • HawkeSarcastic Sarcastic Hawke (@HawkeSarcastic) reported

  • RabidMonkies Techla (@RabidMonkies) reported

    @Daniel_Rubino I need something that 1) starts minimizes to system tray when Windows starts, 2) does video and text between Windows and Android. That pretty much narrowed it down to Skype, Teams, and Signal. Choose Teams because it's new and seems lighter. Hard no to Facebook Messenger.

    So if something is super important or you wanna stay in contact DM me here on Twitter or FB messenger I'll 100% see those Telegram I'm horrible at so 8/10 times I won't see it. I love and care about a lot of y'all super deeply. I'm just terrible at initiating the convo.

  • DogBuckaroo Noddy (@DogBuckaroo) reported

    I would like to thank Snapchat and Facebook Messenger for just inexplicably randomly deciding to just not notify me of some messages I get. It's a reet help.
