    @Heulschwein It's all dystopian, yes. I don't have TikTok either, I'm sure it's a hell of its own, but insta is bad enough. I get ads based on conversations on chat meta apps (Whatsapp, Facebook messenger), and it's infuriating. It's too much trouble to get off all of them.

    *UPDATE* So after 2 1/2 hours, being transferred back and forth, and 4 dropped calls with AT&T Customer Service, if you need to reach me, don’t call or text. Just Facebook Messenger me!!! 🚫📱😞

    @thejuliarock @StephenStorey We met some lovely people in Belize three years ago and have been trying to find a way to help them since. My wife chats with them on FB messenger. They don’t have an actual address. Somehow we are supposed to send a package to a post office an hour away and they get it there?

    @messenger I need to protect my 80yr old mum with dementia from a “romance scammer” on FB messenger. You wont take down his account. Please help.

    Hi @PLDT_Cares I reached out thru your DM and FB Messenger and I did not get any assistance. Our internet has been down since Sunday morning.

    People please don't click on links from people you don't know where they came from. Sometimes even the people you know. Don't click on them. It can cause you trouble. Email, text messages, DM, Facebook messenger anywhere.

    @HertsmereBC Just tried your facebook messenger and got this response "Were having problems with our phone lines right now. We'll keep our social media pages up to date with the latest. Thanks." Funny. I dont see any posts here or on facebook. BC, more like BS!

    @tualgorithm We use the WIFI with our phone to get better service. I call my kids using facebook messenger which works much better. But we still get dropped calls. Our rural WIFI sucks too. Our electric co-op recently installed fiberoptic internet access. Works much better.

    @neilvagg Depending on who you’re flying with, some countries - and therefore their airlines - will completely ban WhatsApp unless you’re connected to a national telecoms service provider. It happened in UAE with FB Messenger.

    @MutualofAmerica @MutualofAmerica I’ve called multiple times & waited on hold for over 30 min. each time & no customer service rep answered. Can someone contact me today, pls? I will send my number via DM, but have also commented on Facebook and sent several DMs on Facebook messenger.

    @visiblecare @visiblemobile I just got off the phone with someone on Facebook messenger and they were no help. I can't seem to find anyone to help me resolve this issue. I either have to wait a few hours or just let it go. Horrible service

    @TelusJudette @QuebecYQB Hi, we see that you tried to contact us through Facebook Messenger. However, you haven't passed the automated machine. You need to write "Talk to an agent", in order for us to help you. Know that all platforms are managed by the same team, so you do not need to spam us. - Moana.

    @deargodwhatnow I remember in 2015, FB Messenger app did something weird to my Samsung at the time would just cut out if I was on a normal (non FB) phone call. I uninstalled FB Messenger, never had the problem again. As a result I just never messaged people on FB again.

    @PLDT_Cares I have sent DMs, I have visited help lines on FB messenger, I have rang 171 for the past FOUR DAYS of having NO INTERNET. Despite all these efforts, PLDT HAS NOT RESOLVED THIS.

    @FlySwoop you cancelled my flight today with no email or phone call. I cannot cancel my return flight online and no phone number is available to talk to someone. I’ve been in queue for 4 hours on fb messenger. This is unacceptable. I want my refund asap! Terrible company

    @GeraldKutney My god. It’s like she typed that on FB messenger where it suggests three words as the next word in your sentence and just randomly chose one of those three suggestions each time. Thankfully, her account is shut down. Good job everybody.

    @World3nder they want you to break the containerization of their service through a browser window to demand native android/iOS privs. if they sandbag or outright can functionality through browser (e.g. facebook messenger) then they make you grant access to your storage device directly.

    @WeAudition I have had sound issues with the WeAudition reader I always work with. For the past year it was perfect and the past month it has had issues. Tinny noises and static sounds popping in randomly. But using FB Messenger works perfectly. why?
