How To Fix Facebook Messenger Login Problem

Learn how to fix Facebook Messenger if you're having a login problem in this quick and easy guide.
In this video, I walk you through several different steps you can take to login to Messenger. The first thing you will want to check is that your internet works, the app is fully up to date, etc. Once those are done, you may want to reset your password by using your email address or phone number so that you can get the one time code. Messenger will send you the code and give you the option to reset your password to something new. Then you will be able to login just like a new account.
This trick works the same for iPhone and Android in 2021.

[@eleanormccarthaigh]

Tried everything you said, Updated iOS, deleted and reinstalled the apps, returned the phone to factory settings. Facebook and Messenger both won't let me login. Says An Unexpected Error occurred. I can logon via laptop so it isn't the account that is blocked. I did have an other account that was blocked due to Community rules violation, but I've removed that account.

Hi, tried everything you suggested. Nothing is working. I go in circles. When I get to a point where it shows my logo and it gives me two options, one my old one and my new one. I chose the new one because I was hacked three weeks ago. It says how do you want to get the code, there is nowhere on the page to give an answer. I’m thinking this person has my system so messed up I’ll never get it back. Any suggestions on who to talk to about regaining my system from the hacker?
