Facebook Messenger will not connect to network or open

A few days ago, and I am not sure what triggered it, but suddenly Messenger won't let me sign in nor open the app on my iPhone 7 plus using the latest IOS software update. I have tried:


Force closing the app

Rebooting the iPhone

Trying to get into Messenger through the FB app

Resetting the network

a full reset of the phone.


nothing works


I just continue to get fatal error messages:

I am desperate because I depend on this app for critical communications. Again, I have done the following:


Force closing the app

Rebooting the iPhone

Trying to get into Messenger through the FB app

Deleted and then Downloaded the app numerous times

Resetting the network

a full reset of the phone.


None of this worked, same message appears.
