    I was told the person working on the case was not in the office. How can there be no communication from you for almost a month? Your customer service is very bad. I have messaged you through FB messenger and we have been calling and even texted pictures of the

    @Fabletics Well I will give it a try but since starting to work your customer service via Facebook Messenger over a month ago it's been one of the worst customer experiences I've ever had

    @FrontierCare Where do I send the DM Lowen? I have tried your chat service repeatedly only to be ghosted. I’ve tried FB messenger as well and was ghosted there too. Please direct me as to who to DM?

    @julissaarce @BankofAmerica I had a problem contacting Bank of America and I live in Thailand. Finally, I had my brother visit a local branch in Tallahassee, and I spoke to one of the bank officers through my brother's phone, using Facebook messenger.

    @LGUSSupport I am trying to have warranty work done on a refrigerator freezer combo that in all likelihood has a compressor issue. I have had callbacks promise that didn’t occur and have gone a full day with no response to Facebook messenger chats. It’s impossible to get help.

    @FanSets Your policy of ignoring emails and forcing people top use *cough* Facebook Messenger to make CS inquiries is frankly preposterous. I shouldn't have to explain in 2023 why it is hostile to your customers to force them to use Facebook in order to receive customer service.

    @IPSYCare I dont use FB or FB Messenger. Can you explain how to reach you via email using your help site? All I see is FAQs, none of which apply. I understand this is a cost saving mechanism but it shouldn't be this hard to contact a business whose product I am buying. Thx.

    @talk2GLOBE I've been talking to you in DM for an hour now but all you do is send me automated messages that resolves nothing! Your app GlobeOne is useless, including your customer service through phone, & in FB messenger. You're the worst! You don't plan on responsibility for your mistake!

    @Long_Tall_Sally I've had the worst customer service experience with your Facebook messenger team, constantly ignored and had the same boiler plate info thrown at me on repeat. I really hope this isn't the same team as I need some actual assistance.

    @HelennaRossa If they do that, I will be leaving Facebook for good. I'm only on there to stay in touch with my daughter who lives in a remote area in AZ. It's easier for her to stay in touch using FB messenger as she doesn't get very good phone service.
