    @whatsappforbiz You are so lazy in customer service @WhatsApp, review customer support issues carefully! Banning numbers without clear reasons hurts businesses & users. My number +234701455574 was banned for almost a month. Can you explain why? #WhatsApp #CustomerSupport "

    @WhatsApp a few days out of nowhere, I can no longer receive any calls, video or phone, I changed no settings, no one is blocked, but friends can't call me, I uninstalled then reinstalled, still won't work, is this a system wide issue?

    🚨 WhatsApp Web flaw: Lock a chat named "Rahul" & set secret code as "rahul". Now search "Rahul" — 🔓 chat opens with no auth. I’m a developer — this looks like a logic flaw. Happy to share steps with @WhatsApp to help fix. #PrivacyBug #WhatsAppWeb #CyberSecurity

    @WhatsApp @finkd The garbage company blocked the users at the door? The database is not updated, the customer service is just for show. Didn’t you marry a Chinese wife? Didn’t she teach you to work hard? I consulted for a whole day but still couldn’t solve it. I was furious.
