There are different ways in which you can touch base with the web hosting company whose services you are using, but the one that you will always find irrespective of which company you select is a support ticket system. It’s the least complicated correspondence channel for several reasons. In the event that no customer service staff member is available at the moment and they’re all engaged, a telephone call may not be responded to, but a ticket will always be received. Moreover, you can copy and paste large pieces of info without worrying about typographical mistakes, and in case a specific issue needs more time to be fixed or a number of responses must be exchanged, all the info will be in the exact same place, so each party can always follow the steps taken by the other one. The disadvantage of using tickets to get in touch with your hosting company is that they are often separate from the hosting platform, which means that if you have to supply info or to follow instructions, you’ll need to use at least two separate admin interfaces and this number might increase in case you would like to manage several domains. Plus, a lot of web hosting providers reply to tickets after a few hours, or even once in every 24 hours, and for you as a customer, this simply means wasted time while waiting for an answer.
