Most of the issues appear to centred around the UK and Europe with countries such as France and Belgium also affected by the glitch. One of the biggest outages appears to have hit Poland with large areas showing problems with Messenger.
Speaking on Down Detector's forum pages many are saying that messages simply aren't sending with one user confirming that the problem has been going on for some time. "I couldn't send or receive messages more than an hour now...? What's wrong with your app..?," the annoyed Messenger fan said.
Adding to the complaints another Facebook user added: "Can't send or receive messages on Facebook Messenger, it says connecting and then comes up as no internet connection and there's nothing wrong with my internet connection?"
There's currently no word on what is causing the issues or when they will be fixed but, as usual, fans have now taken to other social media platforms to vent their frustrations.
