If you use facebook, could you please do me a favour and click on the magnifying glass icon (this is at the top right hand corner). When you click on it? It should bring up a list of people you have searched for. Can you let me know if the list is correct (ie, names of people only appear on there if you have actually searched for them)

Where are my privacy settings?
How do I edit basic info on my profile and choose who can see it?
When I post something, how do I choose who can see it?
How do I change the audience of a post I've shared on my Timeline?
How do I remove a tag from a photo or post I’m tagged in?
How do I control who can search for me using my email address or phone number?
Who can add me as a friend?

It's people I've actually typed in to find, not on my Facebook if that helps?
So if there's nothing there, if you type in Joe blogs and select one, thenext time you hit that button Joe blogs will come up .
I used to teach for ceop so if you are having any problems let me know and I'll try and point you in the right direction .Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....0 -

Yes it brings up a list of people ive recently searched for. It doesn't bring up anyone else and they are all in the order I searched for them.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
