I am told I have messages, I know I don't but face book needs me to download to prove I don't have messages. Control is fine, bullying with zero substance is alienating.

Subject: Request for Reactivation of My Professional Facebook Account

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to request the reactivation of my professional Facebook account, which was deactivated on November 22, 2023. My name is Jeremy Berrebi, and I am a marketing consultant. The account in question is associated with the email
I have been using this account for the past five years primarily for promoting my services, sharing informative content such as blog articles, videos, and photos, and for expanding my professional network. This platform has been instrumental in establishing valuable connections with partners and clients, significantly contributing to the growth of my business.

I assure you that my usage of Facebook has always adhered to the Community Standards. I have consistently respected the platform's rules and have never engaged in posting inappropriate content or violating others' rights. My commitment to abiding by these norms is unwavering and sincere.

The unexpected deactivation of my account has severely impacted my professional activities. It hampers my ability to communicate effectively with my clients and partners and to promote my services. This situation has a direct and negative impact on my business operations.

Therefore, I kindly request that you reconsider and proceed with the reactivation of my account. I am ready to cooperate fully and provide any necessary information to demonstrate my compliance with Facebook’s rules.

I regret the lack of a direct communication channel with your service to discuss this issue and feel a great deal of frustration due to the absence of appropriate recourse on the platform.

Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter. I am available for any further information you may require.

Sincerely,

Jeremy Berrebi

Hacked account, no way to get help recovering it!

My account has been hacked - my email and password that is linked to it changed, yet hacker has kept my phone number as a means of access! All the items I had for sale on marketplace have gone and I'm totally unable to change or edit anything as my details don't tally with it anymore! There's no way of directly contacting Facebook and I'm of the opinion that it's an inside job as even to try and change the hackers username doesn't work! Disgusting, there should be an email address or direct phone number to speak to a real person?? I tried one of the people others were saying could help me but they wanted £200 to recover and reinstate my account - absolututely hitting head against brick wall!!! 😞

Facebook

Facebook, without a doubt , is one of the most influential social platforms of our time.it has evolved over the years constantly adapting and offering new features that keep millions of user engaged and connected .as an avid user , I would like to share my thoughts and experiences with the dynamic platform. First and foremost , Facebook user interface is sleek , intutive ,and user friendly navigating through different sections is a breeze , whether you're , accessing through the web or the mobile app , the well - organized layout allows to easily find and interact with friends pages, groups and events
One of the greatest strength of Facebook is its ability to connect people from are all corners off the globe it has revoltionized the way we ,communicate , breaking down barriears allowing us to connect with friends ,

Facebook Marketplace is terrible.

Since august, 2021 until now I have purchased several items thru marketplace. All orders were paid for at time the orders were placed and all have been posted to my bank or credit card. I also have order confirmation and tracking numbers.
5 different purchases are not responding to my inquiry about where are my products. The seller is not responding nor or they updating info about the tracking. two sellers have deleted the tracking number and will not respond to emails. Phone calls say the line has been disconnected.
Facebook has been notified about each individual issue and has done NOTHING to assist. They continue to allow the sellers to advertise on marketplace.
When I go to the web page, it says call XXX. When I cal, a recording says they no longer respond by phone but to use the web page.
The marketplace function of Facebook is unworthy of my business. They definately need to improve their customer relation service and post better information on how to contact and speak with a person.

USELESS!

Absolute sack of poo I use messenger for my business as people can message that way and choose to, its been showing 2 now 3 messages there but when I look for them there are none, I've reported the issue several times over the last year but no one gets back to me or fixes it. A multimillion pound company with zero staff on hand to help with issues caused by their own multimillion pound software!

Horrible

Horrible. Facebook used to let your write posts at other pages. Now, you are FORCED to use Messanger.
I refuse because even when I wrote posts and presented a biblical opposing view, my posts would be deleted. Definitely not open-minded.

FB messenger, what a joke.

FB messenger, should butt out of peoples private conversations. I have a 30 day ban, because these tossers at FB don't like my so called private conversations. It's no wonder why FB is losing favor to other chat apps.

Poorly copying other apps

Forces stories at you in an attempt to copy functionality of other better apps. Does nothing to promote privacy, the encrypted messages being an afterthought rather than the default.

Specifically about desktop messenger

Specifically about desktop messenger - It was good! Then they changed it - clicking on icons brings up the wrong thing you can't see who's available for chats any more as it runs horizontally instead of vertically - why why why did they do it? It's not useable any more. Back to main online messenger for me.
