Ratings and reviews

Poor customer service Pretty sure I've left a review already, but sure, I'll leave another one at your request. This application has suffered from the same error for years. If you change applications while loading it, it results in a permanent error that can't be resolved without re-downloading the application. As all the messages and history are saved within the application, it is all lost in doing so. I've sent 3 service requests over years and they all go dead silent.

My chats seem to be down. It says I'm getting message notifications but the chat windows are blank, even when I try to send messages. They are not even appearing in my read messages or unread messages lists. Not sure what happened as it worked up until the past few days. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app with no change. :( I hope this gets fixed soon!

I've used this app on and off for several years. Unfortunately, lately one if the biggest annoyances are the bots, sending me messages to invite me to their site. Of course I don't click, but block and report them, but unfortunately they keep coming back. This is becoming annoying as hell. Update 7/31: Reduced to one star. Using in-app reporting and blocking feature and bots still happening. Am paying for monthly subscription. Surely that should account for something.
