    @MicrosoftUK Do you respond to Facebook messenger messages as I’ve contacted you about not being able to login into my email account?

  • mgluckman MWG (@mgluckman) reported

    @MSTrapHouse @ianbremmer I am sure it's to build their user base, which is smart, but weird for a signal type service. Sensible for a facebook messenger.

    @FlowCayman You have absolutely the worst customer service. Internet not working since Friday. Tried calling dozens of times and got disconnected most times. No reply to email, WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook messenger.

  • davefairless9 Dave Fairless (@davefairless9) reported

    @markBgoDawgs They reply via facebook messenger.......whether it’s the reply you want is a different matter. They haven’t been able to fulfill any of my last 4 orders and I’m still chasing refunds. Absolute dogshit service from @sizeofficial

    Was on hold with @WestJet for 2hrs. Got booted off. Now on hold for another 1.5hrs. Poor service. First you cancel one of my flights and now you don’t pick up the phones. Can’t use the website cos it’s a multi trip booking. Tried Juliet on FB messenger, she told me to call. Ugh.

  • MontanaNomad Montana Nomad (@MontanaNomad) reported

    @Ask_Spectrum Hi, I’ve already messaged a couple of people through Facebook messenger and the issue appears to be the modem using the wrong geotag for determining the time zone I’m in. There also doesn’t seem to be a way to fix it.
