How quickly will you fix my issue?

The first-time response time of the after-sales support team is based on the support plan that you choose and the type of ticket submitted.

It also depends on your issue.

The problems that application or service developers encounter vary widely, making it difficult to predict issue resolution times.

We can say, however, that we'll work closely with you and will use all reasonable efforts to provide an initial response within the following time frames.

How do I contact you?

If you are a paying customer with a valid account, you can open a web support case from our support center located at https://dashboard.webhostingmagic.com/submitticket.php.

If you have Business/Priority or Enterprise-level Support, you can request that Web Hosting Magic contact you at any convenient phone number or start a conversation with one of our engineers.

How and when does Support provide real-time assistance during chat and phone support cases?

If customers encounter issues after following our step-by-step documentation, they can provide details such as screen prints and logs through a support case.

For high-severity issues, Business/Priority or Enterprise-level customers can chat with or call support to receive help in real time.

In most scenarios, our support team provides detailed guidance through email.

If necessary, support will use our screen-sharing tool to remotely view the customer's screens to identify and troubleshoot problems.

This tool is view-only—Support cannot act on behalf of customers within the screen-share session.

Please note that the screen-share tool is not intended to assist with guiding customers through steps that are already documented.

For security reasons, our support team cannot join screen-share session hosted by other third-party tools.

Do you speak my language?

For now, Web Hosting Magic Support is available in English while we work to bring in engineers with additional language skills.

Limited Japanese support is provided under our Business/Priority or Enterprise-level and all Support inquiries will be sent to our Japanese Support team.

As a reseller, how do I offer support for my end customers' Web Hosting Magic-related issues?

If an issue is related to your Web Hosting Magic account, we'll be happy to help you.

For problems with a resource provisioned under their own accounts, your customers will need to contact us directly.

Due to security and privacy concerns we can only discuss specific details with the account holder of the resource in question.

How does Chat support work?

Live chat is mostly for sales and account issues that we can troubleshoot in less than 3 minutes.

For Technical Support, customers with valid account are expected to submit a ticket to get help from our engineers. By choosing the chat support icon in the Support Center, a chat session will be initiated through your browser.

The reason is simple.

Creating a ticket after logging in ties the request to your account which give our support team and you a history of the issues you have had which in turn aids us in resolving your issues quickly.

What if you can’t resolve my third-party software issue?

In the case that we are not able to resolve your issue we will collaborate with, or refer you to, the appropriate vendor support for that product.

In some cases you may need to have a support relationship with the vendor to receive support from them.

What are some of the most common reasons a customer might require third-party software support?

For Business/Priority or Enterprise-level, Web Hosting Magic Support can assist with installation, configuration, and troubleshooting of third-party software on the supported list.

For other more advanced topics such as performance tuning, troubleshooting of custom code or scripts, security questions, etc., please contact the third-party software provider directly.

While Web Hosting Magic Support will make every effort to assist, any assistance beyond installation, configuration, and basic troubleshooting of supported third-party software will be on a best-effort basis only.
