How helpful is the Facebook messenger support?

The helpfulness of Facebook messenger support depends on the support representative.

Unfortunately, from our experience, most of the Facebook messenger support representatives are rude and impatient. Therefore we highly advise you not to take it personally.

We had cases where the representative kept pasting the answer template, saying that it is not his responsibility to help us in this specific case.

However, not all of the representatives are like that.

One customer of ours told us that he tried to contact the support three times regarding an Instagram shopping issue. After two failing attempts, the third support person helped him to escalate the matter up to the engineering team - and the issue got resolved (a true miracle!).

Now when you know how to contact them - Facebook messenger support can help you resolve Facebook-related issues. However, be aware that it sometimes requires patience to get to the right representative and to get your issue resolved.
