There are several ways in which you can touch base with the hosting company whose services you’re using, but the one that you’ll invariably find no matter which company you choose is a ticketing system. It is the easiest channel of correspondence for many reasons. In case no client service team member is free at the moment and they’re all engaged, a phone call may not be answered, but a ticket will invariably be received. Plus, you can copy and paste extensive pieces of info without having to worry about typographical mistakes, and in case a given problem requires more time to be fixed or a number of replies need to be exchanged, all the info will be in the exact same location, so either party can always follow the steps taken by the other one. The downside of using tickets to get in touch with your web hosting company is that they are usually separate from the web hosting platform, which suggests that if you need to provide info or to adhere to directions, you’ll have to use at least two separate interfaces and this number might rise if you wish to manage a handful of domain names. Moreover, a lot of web hosting companies respond to tickets after a few hours, or even once in every twenty four hours, and for you as a client, this means wasted time whilst waiting for an answer.
