Facebook Messenger down again

Facebook Messenger is down again for the second time in a week.

The popular app suffered a major outage last week with hundreds of users unable to access or send messages.

Facebook fixed those issues fairly rapidly but it seems the gremlins have returned.

Messenger is currently down for some users with many unable to use the service.

Down Detector, an independent website that tracks social mentions around certain topics to detect outages across the world, has also seen hundreds of reports.

It seems the issues began around 11.15am this morning with users across the UK and Europe appearing hardest hit.

It's currently unclear what is causing these new issues but there's plenty of users expressing their dismay on social media.

One Messenger fan said: "I think Facebook messenger is down. Come on fix it quickly."

Whilst another added: "Facebook messenger is down all over the planet. Noooo!
