  • DFJason 155 Live (@DFJason) reported from Jackson County, Michigan

    @googlenest customer service is INSANELY GOOD. Possibly the best experience ever. We spent 2 days troubleshooting (over facebook messenger no less) a battery issue with our thermostat to no avail; they're promptly replacing it for us. #topnotch

  • heykearstin ♡ // Kearstin (@heykearstin) reported from Front Royal Junction, Virginia

    The most pathetic Facebook trend is people that screenshot random messenger conversations of them letting dudes down. You’re the one replying to these weirdos, just block them & move on.

  • DavidKetcham17 David (@DavidKetcham17) reported from Southgate, Kentucky

    Please help a stranger keeps requesting a thousand dollars from me on Facebook messenger 🤣 #appreciatethehustle

  • alanningrealtor Aaron Lanning (@alanningrealtor) reported from Menifee, California

    When I realize what crappy customer service they had I blew them up on FB, FB messenger, and Twitter. I got my account cancelled finally. But now @Intelius doesn’t allow me to comment on the FB post and has block me in messenger! Horrible service. Take care of your clients and...

  • c0bwebs_ 𝔍𝔲𝔡𝔦𝔱𝔥 ℜ𝔲𝔩𝔢𝔰 (@c0bwebs_) reported from Township of Lindenwood, Missouri

    @NinexKnuckles It’s the one platform my parents can still share things with me and I still have a lot of connections on there so like my problem isn’t so much with Facebook, just primarily with messenger 😫

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Started a chat on Facebook Messenger with @SkyUK regarding my broadband issues at 9:04am. Since then I’ve been passed to 4 agents, none of which have actually spoken to me and have just passed me straight on to someone else. Supposedly it was a 20 min wait to speak to someone...

  • Lilchefinflight Danny D (@Lilchefinflight) reported from Arcola Junction, Texas

    @Amex_Guildford,@AmextraOficial Help I need an agent to book a ticket for me once we find the right fare. Lilchefinflight on Facebook messenger... please help!

  • cyrilmay21 Psy-real... 🌹 (@cyrilmay21) reported from Toledo City, Central Visayas

    I only saw the green logo in fb messenger beside your name and I sat down & wiped my tears. I wishfully thinking if I can reach you just like before but it wilñ never happen again.

  • DennisonBertram Dennison Bertram (@DennisonBertram) reported from Shimogyo Ku, Kyoto Prefecture

    @id_ltd @lawmaster But Facebook already does money in messenger. Seems simple for them to turn on zuckBuckz without much problem. With most of the world's population on the platform, seems like a losing fight for governments.

  • WillGav Will Gavin (@WillGav) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @cineworld I managed to get in contact with them last night via facebook messenger and they recovered my lost item for me, brilliant customer service on the branches part!

  • GolfSoBad Mickey Rottinghaus (@GolfSoBad) reported from Clermont, Florida

    @LeonaLioness666 I only really use Facebook for its Messenger service. Wouldn't use that if my family and acquaintances weren't so tied to it.

  • nismo488 Gordo (@nismo488) reported from Fresno, California

    Funny how when I was 220-260 the girls I asked out turned me down and now they’re in my fb messenger 😂 I still ain’t shit but no mames

  • ManagementTina Tina Dandridge Management (@ManagementTina) reported from Swadlincote, England

    Issac is so wrong how we met. We did NOT meet on Yahoo. I’ve never had a email account with yahoo or used any messenger service. We met on Facebook.

  • aashlynnicolee Ashlyn (@aashlynnicolee) reported from Rockwall County, Texas

  • AdeByrne Ade Byrne Esq.🏂 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺 (@AdeByrne) reported from Southampton, England

    @dermotor @timolloyd Viber too I think. Main problem with WhatsApp is its bound to a phone. My mum doesn't use a phone but has ipad. I used to iMessage her but she learned Facebook messenger just fine

  • Mike18874001 Mike (@Mike18874001) reported from American Mobile Home Park, Michigan

    @Josehannah10 @gene_madelung Hey seen your tweet i have talked to hundreds of thousands of women on messenger and fb and have never found anyone serious... if age is not a problem hmu

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    1.5 hours since starting a chat with @SkyUK support via Facebook Messenger and I’m still being passed to agents. Nobody has spoken to me yet. Time to cancel the service, this is poor.

  • MamaTygryss 💚Mitch'sHigh😲🤯Avi'sLow🖤 (@MamaTygryss) reported from Surrey, British Columbia

    @Disney_DMR Curious how I get a message through to your company. I've tried emailing...twice in the past 6 days, I've left a message on Facebook Messenger, and sent a PM on Instagram but still no responses from any of it. Help would be greatly appreciated.

  • saraswati81 Saraswati (@saraswati81) reported from Basel, Kanton Basel-Stadt

    @HilaryJHendel I think what you’re describing is the issue with the other party involved. This is why communication was flawed & I am now since blocked. I did sadly scare him & appear toxic due to technology issues on fb messenger. I have complained & they have changed it.

  • DeanTong DeanTong (@DeanTong) reported from Jasmine Estates, Florida

    @lpd473 I warned you and Lindahl about NOT adding my services to his defense. I just talked to him the other day on FB Messenger. This is what happens when I'm not working a case like his!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @SkyHelpTeam I’m on Facebook Messenger and three times I appear to have been passed around to another agent, three time’s being asked to provide my name and info. Then get told someone will be with me. This is really poor customer service. Come back @virginmedia, all is forgiven.

  • DorianSinnott Dorian J. Sinnott @ UNY Collector’s Show (@DorianSinnott) reported from Lincoln Park, New York

    @Cookie2thejuice I’m always a text away, too! My messenger I had to uninstall about 5-6 months ago because of issues with it on my phone. But I’m always a text away. And I’ll be on FB and my personal IG (and here)!

  • deetcho deetcho (@deetcho) reported from Gamu, Cagayan Valley

    @itsedsregio You are right! FB Messenger is working with my Globe. Guess @SMARTCares @LiveSmart is having problem.

  • babydani124 Dani 🎀 (@babydani124) reported from Oakleaf Plantation, Florida

    Hello all, my cell phone number was hacked. If you’ve been trying to contact me and I haven’t responded, this is why. Use Facebook messenger or iMessage to get ahold of me. AT&T is trying to fix it currently. 🤞🏼🤞🏼
