Pretty disgusted RN. Terrible service.

  • larryfroot Larry McCauley (@larryfroot) reported

    I've set boundaries for my own well-being which is a daily one hour phone call during the week and *some* responses via FB messenger. But she has *no-one* except a list of waiting lists and a pharmacy service unable to prescribe her prescriptions.

  • tim_co_op The Hoov™ (@tim_co_op) reported

    @tonyneu Tracking it down would invoice searching old FB messenger threads. I’ll open a ticket with IT.

  • LCNCL96 lauren (@LCNCL96) reported

    Why is my fb messenger not working? Messages from friends going into requests

  • Ember_Reign_ Ember™ 🧡💚 | P and Vari luvr!! 🥺 (@Ember_Reign_) reported

    service because it was "too expensive". He always said that Facebook Messenger was a much better way of texting. So fb is the only thing I've used to text over there.) So I checked my messenger today, and there was a message from him. And I gave him my number. I do not know how

  • blindtechnician blindtechnician (@blindtechnician) reported

    @deaflibertarian You know in a way it would be convenient if Twitter did like a Facebook messenger style video calling or audio calling service but I don’t think it would go very well at all considering that peoples personalities here are different than on Facebook.

  • roblongwriter R Lincoln (@roblongwriter) reported

    @ToddAppel @FiorellaIsabelM Me too! I sent it to a friend of mine on FB Messenger, and it got pulled for “violating community standards”. I shut down my Facebook account almost a year ago. I guess now they monitor what people send through private messaging.

  • KatieHirst7 Katie Hirst (@KatieHirst7) reported

    @VodafoneUK She doesn’t have twitter but she’s messaged on Facebook messenger, please help! She’s sent the screen shot of this

  • EllGriff_NFT EllGriff (@EllGriff_NFT) reported

    WhatsApp's down... got to back to... *shudders* Facebook messenger

  • nooneinpar7 nooneinpart (@nooneinpar7) reported

    @DaveTheWave1998 @abbygov I guess part of the disconnect here is that people find it hard to believe there are places where Snapchat is the defacto messaging service over literally anything else like WhatsApp or even FB Messenger/Instagram.

  • d_captainn 🐱 (@d_captainn) reported

    why not fb messenger side down 🥹 i’m so tired of reviewing message tag man 🫠

  • Lunaanya8 Anya (安雅) (@Lunaanya8) reported

    @Ceylantics @Squidgnz @m0sstrx Its possible that they didnt want to pay the SMS charge to text you. A group chat with only iphones when you connect to wifi is free. They’re still bad friends though. When this happened my friend group just moved the group chat to facebook messenger. problem solved.

  • christngkh ひろし  (@christngkh) reported

    @messenger Hello, good day. My Facebook messenger apps continues to load indefinitely. I tried to reinstall and updated to the latest version, but the problem still persists. Device : iPad 9th generation, iPadOS 16.1(20B82) Could you please fix it?

  • ME1223D Gavin Durbin (@ME1223D) reported

    @trentonstech @amplifiedpoop If iMessage goes down then SMS still should work. If SMS isnt working then I would just try and use my work phone, and then FB messenger if that doesn’t work.

  • caroline_sonett Caroline Sonett (@caroline_sonett) reported

    @arzopa I have been trying to get help from customer service for over a week with a defective product under warrantee. My emails are unanswered and fb messenger responses are unhelpful

  • patc3cassells patricia cassells (@patc3cassells) reported

    British Airways Facebook messenger scam…the scam is download AnyDesk and then they want you to keep texting on messenger while they take control of your computer. They were very clever with no grammar or spelling errors and even gave me an adviser name and number. Be aware!

  • heyitsjohnnyc Johnny C (@heyitsjohnnyc) reported

    @talk2GLOBE your customer service is atrocious: your website tells us to call 211 or use the app. Your hotline tells us to use the app. The app directs us to Facebook Messenger. Why even have a website, app, or hotline if you’re going to send us to use FB if we don’t have it?!

  • salsabeela Lia Sadia 💗 (@salsabeela) reported

    When Whatsapp is down, people go to places where the other person most probably hangs out. I reached out to my friend on Facebook Messenger, and some on Instagram DM. My good friend SMS me because she assumed it was her internet connection lol

  • tiggymala James Smith (@tiggymala) reported

    Hi, does anyone work the customer service on here or facebook messenger? thank you.

  • DigitalVK Varun Kumar 🎶 (@DigitalVK) reported

    @aaravmeanspeace Honestly, in terms of adaption, no other app is available on everyone's phone. Especially if you are providing customer service or taking order on WhatsApp. Having own app helps, otherwise some alternative maybe Insta dm (not everyone ok), slack, Signal, Google duo, Fb messenger

  • YankeesGhost The Last King Lou🤴🏾 (@YankeesGhost) reported from North Haven, Connecticut

    I think my boy Manny Rodriguez was shot down last night in a road rage incident in Hartford. I text, called him, and fb messenger him and haven’t heard back. I know he’s an early bird like my si I’m worried. 🙏🏽

  • MayuriBiswasDas Mayurri Biswas (@MayuriBiswasDas) reported

    My #WhatsApp is down like the rest. Ping me on LinkedIn or Facebook messenger for anything urgent.
