    @AllianzIreland Hi is it possible to renew my car insurance today I have tried my online account it's not working. Emails I'm getting no response By phone it's taking too long Facebook messenger hasn't got a response back either What's going on?

  • frederikdiamond FREDERIK DIAMOND (@frederikdiamond) reported

    While we're on the topic of problems with my S22 Ultra: From time to time, I'll not receive any notification sounds from apps. For instance, if someone sends me a message on FB Messenger, my phone will just ignore it. Super annoying.

  • transguys Joshua Riverdale (@transguys) reported

    @eBARnews I'm trying to reach Cynthia Laird. She reached out to me on FB but FB Messenger isn't working. I sent you a msg through your contact form, but the form doesn't provide a confirmation so I don't know if that went through either. Tech issues today!

  • DTE_Energy DTE_Energy (@DTE_Energy) reported

    @Unknown80083 We know this is a disruption to your day, and we’d like to help. Please send us a private message using Facebook Messenger so we can look into this for you.

  • iamthedans Dan Simpson (@iamthedans) reported

    tip: if you use fb messenger and have suddenly stopped getting notifications, hold down on the messenger icon to go into app settings, then battery usage, then click on unrestricted (might be labelled something slightly different depending on brand)

  • Stevie_G5456 Steve Graham (@Stevie_G5456) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam how do I actually get to speak to a real person on Facebook messenger? I have a specific problem that can’t be fixed by troubleshooting pages, yet all I’m getting is “speak to other customers”

  • RossB1987 Ross Barker (@RossB1987) reported

    @British_Airways can you pls provide me with an email address for your ‘customer relations’ as people on the phone lines can’t help, people on your fb messenger can’t help, your online forms to submitted info to your customer relations doesn’t work. 9 weeks and still waiting……

  • MilanEire2023 MilanEire (@MilanEire2023) reported

  • janewalton10 jane walton (@janewalton10) reported

    @BritishGasHelp I've have sent via FB Messenger - however, auto reply says only available 9-5, when I'm at work. However, hoping for resolution as promised email not materialised. You do make it hard to reach you and deal with issues!

  • AjiloreMatthewA Official_Excel (@AjiloreMatthewA) reported

    @GOtvNg Hello good afternoon. Please I made a payment to my Gotv and it’s not reflecting on the account I tried reaching through the FB messenger channel but no response. Please help me restore my view. IUC:7528113902

  • Raven_Satanas Raven (@Raven_Satanas) reported

    @Coles Already done all that via Facebook messenger only to be told, "Not our product, not our problem." Obviously very little regard for customer safety. I've messaged Pepsi Co directly.

  • MaryBremner8 Merri-Berri (@MaryBremner8) reported

    @MWEBTweets @mweb We where on the phone nearly 2hrs a week ago the second call your tech’ advised that a tech’ would come out & check no one came. We call weekly due to the pathetic speed -we PAY for 100up/down & never get close! I have forwarded all pvt. details of account holder on FB messenger!

  • MPowersNorrell Mandy Powers Norrell (@MPowersNorrell) reported from Lancaster, South Carolina

    @cstegmaier Yes! I didn’t even know what it was years ago and didn’t have it on my phone and ultimately found out a constituent was furious w/me for not fixing an issue - though she’d never called or emailed my office. Only used Facebook messenger. 😳

  • DickChenidid911 Falseflagwars (@DickChenidid911) reported

    @PLAYairlines I filled out a stop over form a week ago - no response. I reached out to your Facebook messenger customer service and it's a joke. Kept asking for info I already provided and then a day later says hello... Can I please get some assistance? My case number is 189409

  • Shop2712 SHOP2712.CA (@Shop2712) reported

    @WestJet BFFR!! I’ve called again this morning at 6:30am an agent answered at 8am, she was super helpful but her system was down so she was waiting on quotes to make my change AND again you’re system hung up after 2 hour mark!!! Plus still no reply from my dm or fb messenger!!

  • HybridProphecy Jack° 🎗 (@HybridProphecy) reported

    Does anyone else have issues with Facebook Messenger not sending notifications a lot of the time? It's been like that for a year or so for me. I probably get notified for about two thirds of my message overall.

  • louyanong Lou Yanong (@louyanong) reported

    Am i the only one having problems with my Facebook messenger

  • celticmagick333 celticmagick (ジェイソン) (@celticmagick333) reported

    @Breaking911 You don't buy oxy from some stranger via Facebook messenger. She also had ********* - she's a druggie. She knew the consequences of her choices. On the other hand, the dealers and distributors should be taken down in general.

  • theshelleywalsh Shelley Walsh (@theshelleywalsh) reported

    @Ammon_Johns @GuideTwit Does that mean your FB messenger is also down?

  • caramelsunrise Karen Yao (@caramelsunrise) reported

    @aynbernos Same issue when I inquired sa new gym sa ortigas / pasig area~ I told them no, and that I'm not comfy with calls, and I kept asking for specifics nalang via fb messenger. teehee

  • kyddryn kyddryn (@kyddryn) reported

    @jdiannedotson Warm hugs. Would it be acceptable to send you something via PM here or FB Messenger? Ok if no, grief is deeply personal. It’s a comforting thing I talk about with friends who are grieving and I’ve no notion if it’ll help but I’m game to try. No religion, promise.

  • williams57111 KAREN WILLIAMS (@williams57111) reported
