    @bigbasket_com I have already shared the details on your facebook messenger. But I am pretty sure you will either offer me a refund or an exchange but you will never go to the root of the problem to see why were there insects when the food was packed.

  • p444sjt SARAHJANE THOMAS (@p444sjt) reported

    @bandq_help @BandQ I have sent all my details including screenshots of my order confirmation, to Facebook messenger. This is an extremely poor level of customer service - I have been ringing your contact numbers all afternoon, only to be either cut off or kept on hold for over 30 minutes a time.

  • miskmp MISKMP (my immune system killed my pancreas) (@miskmp) reported

    @AlexMasmej @tryShowtime I’ve find some issues with how Facebook Messenger allows users to share unsolicited, offensive and disturbing content. Leaving a group message floats the data as an archive that cannot be deleted, reported, edited. Yet, offending content is shareable even after leaving the group.

    Worth of Amazon gift cards. You're supposed to claim your prize within 20 days of winning. I did that for all 3 times I won something. The times I won were October, November, and December. I was in contact with them via their Facebook messenger until they shut that down
