Hi, I have tried connecting my shop and keep receiving a message that states "This shop is not eligible for shop with checkout on Instagram or Facebook at this time." But I followed every step and have a reputable business.

This app has given me nothing but problems. And, has had me waiting for a "standard review of up to 4 weeks" since November 16th.... In Shopify everything is active and ready to go. But in Facebook Commerce manager the message is totally errors. Saying info is missing from just about every line. Title, Description, price, etc etc. I don't find it user friendly at all

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and leave a review. When it comes to account eligibility Facebook has complete control over this aspect so it's great to hear you've gotten in touch with them. Merchant feedback is extremely valuable to help improve our apps, so I'll be following up via email shortly to see if you have any additional details to share. - Anna, Shopify Support

This application has not been a positive experience and has consumed a considerable amount of time. Despite attempting to resolve issues related to connectivity and verification for over 10 days for now, the problems have only worsened with time. Recently, there was an attempt to start over by disconnecting from Shopify, but this resulted in a complete disconnection of the catalog, making it impossible to reconnect. The app claims that the asset is already connected and directs the user to the commerce manager, which provides conflicting information about the connection and rejections. Numerous attempts have been made to connect, but there is no one to contact for assistance and no response to messages. This is frustrating as I still not authorized or verified on Facebook or Instagram. It is recommended that others avoid this app and focus on their website and email list instead.

The support and help in resolving issues has literally been zero. It has now gotten to the point that you can't even contact meta for support. If meta is wondering why they have lost so much revenue in the past year then it might have something to do with the way they treat business owners. I have lost access to the app and my shop on meta and Instagram. My shop is no longer linked to shopify with no reasonable explanation as to why. My account has been banned from advertising due to an innocent comment I made on my personal account about people getting better from an illness but the comment police obviously didn't like that. I have evidence of this. It was listed as the main reason as to why I couldn't advertise. I have also had my Instagram account hacked and is now currently being used fraudulently to extract money from unsuspecting users, using my name and identity to do so! I have reported this to meta but they have done nothing to prevent it from happening further. When are meta going to take responsibility and take action over these criminals? Business owners like myself are being penalised for other people's actions and it is just not right! I would like to see some significant changes starting with providing business customers like myself with good old fashioned in person or over the phone helpful customer service, with people trained to deal with the plethora of problems that business owners face when accessing meta and Instagram platforms. I would also like to see meta taking criminal activity much more seriously and having a robust policy for dealing with it. Lastly I would like to see Meta respecting business owners and working with them, rather than preventing them from accessing their shops and advertising. This is our livelihoods and we are working hard to succeed and Meta's success also depends upon our success. If multiple business owners get fed up with the treatment they receive from Meta and find alternative platforms then ultimately this affects Meta's advertising revenue and long term success. From what I can see from the reviews of the app their are quite a few unhappy and disgruntled business owners who have all experienced a lack of support and a removal of their shops with no explanation as to why. This kind of behaviour from Meta is deeply unprofessional and needs to be rectified immediately! I have resorted to leaving a review as I have no other way to communicate my issues and my deep disappointment in Meta. I look forward to hearing from you soon with a real solution. Thank you.

This app randomly generates posts from Shopify to Facebook when new products are added to the Facebook Channel, rendering social media marketing campaigns via Facebook and/or Instagram totally useless. There is no facility in Facebook to turn off these posts. We have had very negative feedback from our followers that these bland posts are irritating. We are almost certainly losing Facebook followers. We ask that Shopify puts pressure on Facebook to rectify this situation as soon as possible. Note also that the Developer Reply to EJay's review does NOT work - see below: Developer reply

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback! That definitely sounds frustrating and not ideal. In that regard, we have had a few merchants experience the same issue. The issue that you've described is coming from a setting within your Facebook notifications and not from our app directly. We aren't able to control how Facebook displays your product updates however, we did some digging on our end and the way you would turn off these notifications is to go to your Business Page Settings > Page Updates > click on Edit > and turn off post notifications so that they don't automatically update every change. This should turn off the automatic posts. Thank you! - Anna, Shopify Support
