    There is another section- think it says 'more', it's on the right of other, greyed out. Click the unread option and see if that works.
  • Tried that it doesn't - will try on my pc when I get home.

    Thanks though!

    well well, in all the time Ive had FB I've never noticed the "other" messages.

    I have 2 in there, both from "admirers" that need to go to specsavers .. " I just came across your interesting profile,I am attracted by your lovely profile picture. You've got a lovely look,nice hair and you portray a good charisma."



    :rotfl::rotfl:Hope you have better luck than me linkypie

    I've never had an Other message, ever! I check the folder at least once a day and have done for about a year now since I heard about possible wins being missed but nope, nothing's ever been in there. :(
  • finally found message - it was spam...but still at least i know now!

    My inbox is showing as having an unread message at the moment but there isn't one there!! Think facebook might be playing up!
