Do you have any problem with me? is OK for informal speech, but don't use it in your exam.

Clive Do you have any problem with me? Hi,
why is that ok? Shouldn't it be "any problems"?
"Problem" is countable...
Thanks

Hi,
I agree that 'a problem' would be better with the singular, but you'll hear people say it both ways. As I said, it's informal. It's also quite idiomatic (in both singular and plural form).
