    They made up some pretty horrendous bullshit about me to my former chapter (NYC) too. Claiming I pulled a knife on another member I had issues with because I confronted him for being an ******* to my then-girlfriend. We had a FB messenger fight but somehow it became a knife pull

    @wa_status is there a way to set my status not to show online when am using the service, it would be just nice not to be bother. Just like in Facebook messenger you can set yourself offline. Please advise

    @PrimusHelps your number isn’t working, your wifi isn’t working, and no one actually chats on your FB messenger. New modem arrived to ‘solve’ my internet issues but still no wifi. Others in Fort Erie with Primus service also down and can’t get through.

    @sotirpetrov @MeliksahDipcin @NikiasMolina In Greece people use Viber/FB Messenger and I hate it. Terrible apps, with the ui getting worse and worse.

    @jet2tweets I’m trying to amend the date of my holiday to a new date as it’s currently 5th July. Tried messaging on your WhatsApp service, call back request service, emailing, fb messenger, phone. No reply on any. Been on phone on hold for 30mins now, how do I speak to someone?

    @VZWSupport I am having a billing issue. No way to call and talk to a person. I’ve been using a chat through FB messenger that then created a secure chat but that has timed out. How do I get to support?

    Catching up with a friend I haven't spoken to in ages via Facebook messenger. Haven't used it in years so still getting used to the changes. Trying to scroll down and accidentally leave a ******* laugh reaction on a message of her saying her mother died recently. KILL MEEEEEEE

    @toister @Dyson I had an issue recently with a vacuum cleaner. I used Facebook messenger to contact support. Communication was seamless and easy. They diagnosed a battery issue, and sent a new one without me asking, even though the warranty had expired. Arrived in the post three days later.

    @Android Why did your last update mess up my Motorola phone?? My apps are not functioning properly!! I don't get notifications when they're on and my Facebook Messenger is completely f**ked!! I've done everything I can think of and these issues still persist since the update!!

    @kcemenike No, WhatsApp is not OTT. OTT refers only to video. As a service, conceptually and architecturally, WhatsApp is no different than iMessage or Facebook Messenger. What made it distinct early on was the use of phone number as primary identifier, and zero-rating deals.

    This is probably old news, but a sneaky tip if you loathe read receipts in FB messenger as much as I do… if you open messenger so you can see all your unread messages and then press and hold down on one, it pops up so you can read it but won’t show as read to the other person.

    @tstickstobi The impact first on Brands is many brands that are reliant on government policies will stop tweeting and stop running paid campaigns. They won’t want to stoke the government. Customer service will be driven via Facebook messenger and IG, hopefully via software like Zendesk.

    @talk2GLOBE Our internet is down for hours now. we tried calling your hotline, chat in facebook messenger, use globeone app, but none was able to help. Your line is down. Messenger does not recognize "ask for help" or "internet connection". What now?

    @GoldenC688 @SaltySicky @ChronicSalt Someone tried doing that to me through Facebook messenger. I blocked them instantly. "No, I don't need your expensive oils to make me feel better!" I needed a doctor who would listen and help.

    @Celcom your service sucks. I have been on FB messenger since 5pm trying to resolve a sim card delivery that was returned to you by the courier company. after 9 days I still have not gotten my sim card.

    Every time I’ve seen a Facebook messenger page, it requires login. Not sure if the page was deleted or how/why Google is ranking a login required page. Don’t have a Facebook account so can’t verify either way.
