Other possibilities include temporary suspensions by Facebook, privacy settings that restrict communication, technical issues within the app, or a private profile limiting who can contact them on Messenger. In this article, we will discuss several ways to solve this error.
1. Check if the User Has Deactivated Their Facebook Account
If the person you’re messaging has deactivated their Facebook account, they’re unavailable on Messenger. A deactivated account can’t be messaged. Knowing this helps you avoid troubleshooting and try other ways to communicate.
2. Check if the User Has Blocked You
If you think you’ve been blocked, it’s important to check. Search for the person’s profile with your account and compare it with a mutual friend’s account. If others can see the profile but you can’t, you’ve likely been blocked. This helps you see if the problem is with your account or the other person’s settings, so you can find the right solution.
3. Make Sure You Haven’t Blocked the User
Sometimes, you might accidentally block someone, stopping you from messaging them. Check your block list to see if this happened. If they are blocked, unblocking them allows you to message them again, quickly fixing the issue without more troubleshooting. This ensures the problem isn’t due to a setting you changed.
