  • MarkStanmore Mark Stanmore (@MarkStanmore) reported from Southampton, England

    @facebook has something happened to your messenger app. I appear to have a domain error on the iPhone app and unable to access messages on the desktop. Normal feed appears to be working. Updated FB today with your latest version also. #facebooksupport #messenger #fb #facebook

  • NZSpides Paul McKay (@NZSpides) reported from Te Rapa, Waikato

    @DemiseNZ I ignore Facebook now. Turn off notifications for Facebook and messenger. I only have it for when I really need it for something. And that’s only a couple of times a year. I wouldn’t be sad if it shut down.

  • HodophileAthena Eunice Athena 💕 (@HodophileAthena) reported from Kawit, Calabarzon

    No Facebook and No Messenger. No Problem 🙂

  • MonicaMcAlister Monica McAlister (@MonicaMcAlister) reported from Holly, Michigan

    I swear none of my friends want to message me via the same service. Twitter DM, Instagram messsages, Snapchat, Facebook messenger, Hangouts, etc. If I ever don't respond jist messafe again. I probably didn't see it lol

  • DerekMoser14 Derek Moser (@DerekMoser14) reported from Brush, Colorado

    @dede77869627 @AnnCoulter They were never down when we used to communicate on that platform. Many people just plain gave up quit deleted all accounts. No one cares about Facebook. Supposedly business folks still use Messenger, but some people send porn as spam and that’s messed up, because no delete FB

  • imshensadioa Ms. Elly 👸 (@imshensadioa) reported from Quiapo, National Capital Region

  • yegventures Lincoln Ho | Yegventures 🇨🇦🇭🇰🇻🇦 (@yegventures) reported from Edmonton, Alberta

    @madebygoogle I've noticed it at times on regular video recordings, as well as TikTok and FB Messenger. But Instagram is by far the worst of it. (I specifically changed from Sony Xperia to Pixel 3XL due to the Instagram lag issue.)

  • DenizaDrenica 🌻DENIZA🌻 (@DenizaDrenica) reported from Biel/Bienne, Canton de Berne

  • tarisss3 t a r e b e a r 💛🧸 (@tarisss3) reported from Sandusky South, Ohio

    My back camera is really not working. It only works on Facebook messenger and twitter. I am about to cry

  • TungstenNichols Jerome S Nichols (@TungstenNichols) reported from Ypsilanti Mobile Home Village, Michigan

    Facebook's brand looks cheap. The entire thing. It was clean years ago but it's showing it's age these days. Instagram specifically has major font and image compression problems. Messenger looks like a spammy website. It's all a mess.

  • MelonieDodaro Melonie Dodaro 🇳🇱 🇨🇦 🇬🇧 🇩🇰 (@MelonieDodaro) reported from Amersfoort, Provincie Utrecht

    @mediamarkt_nl I bought a birthday gift for a birthday TODAY that still hasn’t arrive 5 days later. No one is responding by phone or FB messenger. I will have an unhappy nephew with no birthday present today if I don’t receive it. Please help!

  • RushaSahak Rebekah (@RushaSahak) reported from Cainta, Calabarzon

    FB messenger is not working at moment. Not everyone but only me. This isn’t pretty. 😿

  • MKLiebmann MK of Flea Bottom (@MKLiebmann) reported from Los Angeles, California

    I don't use ANY apps on Facebook. None. I don't even like to use messenger. I use it simply as an events management, and to share photos with family etc. But it's the apps and liking content that are the problem. That's what needs regulation.

  • Jen2223 Jennifer Bracken (@Jen2223) reported from Ridgeland, Mississippi

    @snaptravel I have called and FB messenger many times - no reply and emailed with automated idiots replying to no resolve. I’m trying to ask a simple question and cannot talk or text with anyone. I will NEVER use @snaptravel again! Totally bogus company, zero customer service!

  • ELamy4Palestine Eric Lamy (@ELamy4Palestine) reported from Cakung Barat, Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta

    Indonesian government has been shutting down access to FB, Messenger & WhatsApp for a week now because of deadly riots (9 dead). Missing news of #Palestine so much...

  • sherfranklin Sheree (@sherfranklin) reported from Gurnee, Illinois

    If you ever need to get in contact with Eventbrite forget emails, and twitter. Use FB Messenger. It is better to use other services than Eventbrite. There charges are excessive and they have lousy customer service. #LousyCustomerService

  • 3thanXP ˗ˏˋ e x p ˎˊ˗ (@3thanXP) reported from Seattle, Washington

    For my own peace of mind, I deleted my FB app completely and changed all my websites that use FB login to a regular login process. I still have FB messenger to use to some group chats, but I remain “offline” so I won’t be bothered by others.

  • SacHiLife1 Sachi (@SacHiLife1) reported from Miami, Florida

    @BlackGetaways Hello BCG, please respond to my messages regarding my request for a refund from the cancelled DR trip. My wife and I have sent messages through FB Messenger, Instagram Messages and the info email account. This is not a good look for your customer service.
