  • Benokem Csathó Bence (@Benokem) reported

    @Lcscosta81 @SamMobiles At first I was excited to update my phone, but now I regret it. Most of Good lock functions are not working with one ui 3, and the navigation bar is buggy or less responsive with ui 3. Facebook messenger is a joke now. Hate it

  • KhyberKtk Khyber Khan Khattak (@KhyberKtk) reported

    @AppleSupport Hi. If you can remove the issue in new software update. It always pauses video while we slide over the video during video call on facebook messenger. Another issue is that after 14.2 update it drains out battery too early & takes too much time to charge the phone 😟

  • sb_abell Steve Abell (@sb_abell) reported

    @CraghoppersUK Cannot place my order due to random error messages appearing, no phone support, neither webchat nor Facebook Messenger can help my query. Disgusting - you don't deserve my custom if this is how you treat people.

  • Jenni3claire Jenni (@Jenni3claire) reported

    @IKEAUKSupport I need to cancel an order but the phone, chat and Facebook messenger are all not working! Please help.

  • underwaterryan Ryan Offord (@underwaterryan) reported

    Note to self. When mum adds you to a random group on Facebook messenger as admin to send a meme, don't accidentally kick her out of her own group and then leave. All sorts of tears can happen. Her upset but me pissing myself didn't help. Oopsie.

  • ChristieLeanneB Christie Barker (@ChristieLeanneB) reported

    @Halfords_uk I would like to raise a complaint I have repeatedly asked your colleagues via Facebook messenger, yet they continue to ignore my requests. Hopefully you can help

  • GillyBarr Gilly Barr (@GillyBarr) reported

    @unativ I have the same problem, still not gonna download facebook on my phone or facebook messenger.. 🙅

  • sharonnotley1 sharon notley (@sharonnotley1) reported

    @IKEAUK I have received 27 candles from you, 24 of which are unuseable, I have tried phoning, fb messenger and no luck, please get in touch ASAP to resolve this issue

  • charliebuttler charlie buttler (@charliebuttler) reported

    @lottie_ellis1 @lookfantastic @Hermesparcels Yes they messaged me back on Facebook messenger to say it's being returned to retailer. If never buy from them again. Awful service. They said they will refund me when they receive it back.

  • PainterRandy Randy Dueck (@PainterRandy) reported

    PayPal deducts a fee when you use them to donate. When using Facebook Messenger it has no fee so 100% of what you donate goes to help me share God'Love & HisWord with the least of these here in RedBluff!

  • nilorahk jen rivers (@nilorahk) reported

    @AMCTheatres. I have tried for 4 days to get a hold of someone to change a movie on a private rental. The local theater won’t help, online I can’t request a refund, I have paid for it, reached out by email, FB messenger you got a higher number of calls then you can handle!

  • DjGenki Genki (@DjGenki) reported

    Neural link implant so I can listen to YouTube synth reviews with random Facebook Messenger ads interupting them while people in RL try to talk to me at the grocery checkout because I already totally don't have problems multitasking conversations.

  • SudipGh63016449 Sudip Ghosh (@SudipGh63016449) reported

    @HDFC_Bank Everyone knows how HDFC went down totally on 21st nov and I am a victim of bank fraud due to this. An international transaction took place without any otp or my interference. Need refund regarding this. Same thing reported to you on facebook messenger and mail.

  • ThomFrench Ho Ho Ho, JOIN A UNION! (@ThomFrench) reported

    @Matalan can u help me with a customer service issue?, since no one else can e.g in store, email, phone call, fb messenger etc. I'm getting no reply. My order has been missing since 27th October!

  • Simmo2403 Mark Simpson (@Simmo2403) reported

    @Rufus_Jay @UtilityPoint I'm owed £278.21 from @UtilityPoint . Not answering calls, ignoring emails to 2 addresses, nobody on live chat, and a very smug person on Facebook messenger telling me how long before I can go to the ombudsman. Disgusting customer service at this difficult time for us all.

  • LuQiu10 Lu Qiu (@LuQiu10) reported

    @nick_clegg Actually FB can help by adding a Bluetooth mesh networking feature across FB Messenger/WhatsApp/IG Direct to deal with Internet shutdowns so govts would be less obsessed with the concept of 'Internet Sovereignty'. (Reference Firechat/Bridgefy/Google Apple COVID Contact Tracing)
