Facebook Notification

Options
Yet again, Facebook push notifications are driving me nuts! One minute it will be absolutely fine, the next I stop receiving notifications to anything.

I also don't receive any notification at all (push or otherwise) when someone replies to my comment. I'm seriously concerned this means I'm missing out on wins!

Does anyone else have this problem or has anyone had it previously and figured out a solution?

Thanks in advance!

    I don't really do FB comps so haven't noticed if it affects me, there is a social searcher thing that searches Facebook and Twitter for you :

    https://www.social-searcher.com/

    So you would search for "Congratulations Jane Doe" or "Winner Jane Doe", obviously put your own name in for Jane Doe.
    I haven't used the either though so I dunno how it works, or even how well.

    I didn't get a notification of my last FB win even though the company both tagged me in a comment, and replied to my comment - only pure fluke that I saw it appear as a general post when scrolling on my timeline. FB sucks.

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    I`ve just tried this, only to find my made up facebook name has died on my actual birthday this year.

    Merry christmas to me

    I'm glad that it's not just me, not that it's any consolation to anyone else! Unfortunately the social seacher site doesn't seem to bring up replies to comments.
