Default Facebook / Messenger.com

I don't normally use either application, though I do have a Facebook account, which also seems to be the same account used in Messenger. What's the connection between these two please?

The thing is, I 'bought' a couple of £1 items on wish.com, the email from which directs you to messenger.com, into which it logged in with my Facebook account details and brought up a list of my Facebook friends and Facebook messages.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

Messenger is the Facebook equivalent of the pm system on here Harry, only you and the other person can read them,the list of contacts and messages come up automatically if you don’t delete the message once read. It doesn’t mean that they have your contacts.

Thanks - it just seemed a bit odd, that a completely different website URL seemed to have all my details and contacts available to it.

Facebook is incredibly slow here via Plusnet, so almost unusable. Messenger is much faster..

Facebook is incredibly slow full stop these days, same for us with Vodafone.
