3 times this year Facebook has closed my account and demanded proof that I am human. How quickly could I actually morph into a robot? If I was human the first time, then clearly I am human now. They demand a video and say they wont keep the data for any more than 28 days. Quite clearly 28 days later they demand the data again. I did it twice but I… Read more
am leaning towards giving facebook the flick this time. If that is the level of intelligence of a person who gets into Harvard, then clearly the t-shirt is the most impressive thing there. I had serious doubts about Zuckerberg's personality before this and this has only strengthened my belief that he has serious issues to be signing off on such a childish approach.
There are a number off issues I have with Facebook. I listed an item with them and placed it on roughly 12 group sites as well as the main site. I had their AI tell me the item was fake and they took my account off. I asked for a review as the items are authentic. Eleven of the 12 reviews that they did, said my ads were legitimate but one said… Read more
it was fake - this is for the same item!! As a result, I have an ad on my Facebook page that I cannot amend or remove or ask for a further review. Their rating system has been down for over a week and everyone is unable to rate a person who they have have had dealings with on Marketplace. There is no easy way to contact Facebook to tell them that they have stuffed up their web site, and I am NOT going to go through hoops trying to tell them. I have an old computer screen that does not have a camera. Like many others on this site, I have been FORCED to do facial recognition. This means I have had to have a lend of someone's laptop so that I can do the facial recognition to get my account reinstated. This is happening about once every 10 days. Surely, some brain surgeon in there can work out a system whereby once people have done the facial recognition, that it should be sufficient for more than 10 days. Toughen up Facebook and have a shop front where people can contact you with issues where you are accountable instead of hiding behind a veil of impossible tasks to contact you.
Facebook will not allow me to block the posts of the terrorist loving communists. Also called the ALP! But anyone with an open mind would recognise them as the Australian Communist Party.
What's going on with these advertisements All the videos just pops out and then adds some straight after, marc Zuckerberg you are just a greedy clown. Hopefully you will get more fines.
Beware ALL Facebook sponsored advertisers They are mostly selling scam product that DOES NOT WORK and many either add almost the purchase proce for bogus handling and other charges OR you never see the goods. Facebook makes it impossible to contact these people or Facebook Facebook appears a scam organisation facilitator
Facebook is a political influenced social media that can’t and won’t allow criticism of government departments and political parties influenced by other means. It doesn’t allow free speech and like the government punishes anyone who pokes fun at the… Read more
British Labour Party It restricts and bans anyone who criticises or pokes fun at government activities eg The treatment of the young girls raped in the uk by Muslim Pakistani old men for over 10 years which was covered up by South Yorkshire police and the government and who even arrested the fathers of the girls for complaining about the abuse. And the government refusal to prosecute the police or the councils that hid these crimes. If you put comments about the religion of Islam practicing and condoning this and ask why it’s allowed to flourish in countries where their beliefs are against the law or Criticise the government stance you are a racist or Nazi Free speech is a right win by our forefathers but is not allowed on this platform
Follow-up · A banning order is all that Facebook can give WITHOUT even allowed to write anything in your defence, all this from a company that is owned by Elon musk a strong believer in free speech
Facebook is a creepy greedy app that accesses the private data on your computer (but just on the FB account) and sells it to marketers. If you have the FB app your data is personal not safe - including personal photographs
Facebook is forcing Australian users to submit facial biometric video selfies to access their accounts, with no alternative and no opt-out. This violates the Australian Privacy Act. I’ve lodged a complaint with @OAICgov and urge others to do the same. @Meta must be held accountable.
I have a new computer and i want to reset my password i requested a code by email and sms to my phone and they never sent a code I keep getting an email asking if it was me but there is no way to say it was me They just want me to use my profile picture to login to me it is not a safe way to login How hard is it to send an sms by email or phone
They prioritise serving ads over content. The ads will load first, then sometimes content. It's full of p*rn with OF losers showing their stuff. Marketplace is mostly scammers from the sub continents. The paid advertisements are mostly clickbait scammers. Now the reels have a scam advert every third reel. Facebook and Meta could stop most of these… Read more
problems overnight, but choose not to. They are happy to take advertising money, even if it is from a scammer. Facebook and meta are despicable. I just deleted them off my phone. Going to buy a couple of books instead.
They don't even deserve 1 star Block my account without giving any reason, I contacted Facebook to ask what was the reason but they didn't respond. Why can't they block the accounts of the scammers they have on Facebook. Now I have lost all my contacts. Terrible
Facebook suspended my Facebook account about 6 months ago FOR NO LEGITIMATE REASON. They say it is because an Instagram account had contravened some rules. The problem is it was NOT MY INSTAGRAM account! IT IS NOT MY INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT, NOR DO I HAVE ANY CONNECTION TO THAT ACCOUNT, OR EVEN KNOW THIS PERSON. I don't know how they thought my… Read more
Facebook account was in any way linked to this Instagram account.
I have asked them repeatedly to disconnect my Facebook account with this Instagram account and restore my Facebook account.
I have sent many, many emails and messages through Facebook, Instagram and Meta, BUT NOT ONE SINGLE RESPONSE!!!
I have been trying to fix this problem for 6 months.
This is a very simple matter to resolve, yet they do NOTHING.
SHAME ON FACEBOOK.
Has deleted my 20 years old account to force me to sign up a new one. After already gave my name, date of birth, email to verify me, it wanted the phone number. Then I had to pass some stupid puzzle tests to prove I was human , but even that wasn't enough. It also wanted a video of my face from different angles so it can use face recognition… Read more
technology. Fingerprint scan already on laptop so the only thing Facebook is missing is a blood sample to take my DNA. And the government is worried about Tik-tok collecting some information ?
I was denied access to FB when they discontinued their two-factor ID authenticator a few years ago – I was in a stroke rehab hospital at the time, learning to walk and talk and eat again – and only discovered I’d lost access to my account when I was discahrged in August 2023. I haven't been able to access my account ever since! I tried again… Read more
yesterday. Wasted the afternoon trying, but all Meta does is ask for ID (sent passport and it was accepted), and a code they said I could use as a password (it produced an error msg). Well, after jumping through all these hoops, they still want the two-factor authentication code - you know? The one I can't give them because they discontinued the authenticator I'd previously used and I was never given the opportunity to set up a new one in the Google authenticator I use for everything else?
So round and round I go, and there's no way forward.
Facebook just keeps sending me reminders to log back in, (see attached for today's reminder!) and I have no way of telling them I can’t log in because I don’t have the two-factor authentication set up!
They offer no support; and no means to reach them so you can tell them what the problem actually is! And they think they're leading the world in AI - trained with millions of books they stole from the pirate site, LibGen!
Looking at the hundreds of messages begging for assistance on LinkedIn (none of which get a response from Meta), they can't even manage the rudimentary elements of effective communication.
I am growing increasingly fond of Bluesky. It's effective, it's not constipated with fake-info, and it's not toxic.
