But that&rsquo;s fine &ndash;&nbsp;it saves you having to hunt out that content yourself, and frees you up for what matters (growing your Shopify store!).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Average wait time for Shopify support on live chat: 5 to 10 minutes.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text]\n <footer>\n <\/footer>\n\n\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]\n<section class=\"taco-content-section \" id=\"section-0\">\n <header class=\"taco-section-header no-number\">\n\n <div class=\"taco-section-heading\">\n <h2 class=\"taco-section-title primary\">\n \n Email <\/h2>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/header>\n\n \n\n [vc_column_text]<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&rsquo;s not always the quickest route to receiving customer support. But for the sentimentalists, at least, there&rsquo;s a lot to be said for good, old-fashioned email service.

It also comes with an image field, into which you can drag and drop screenshots to explain the issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>To be honest, we wouldn&rsquo;t be overly quick to endorse this method of support over, say, the live chat feature. It&rsquo;s slower, and less convenient in the sense that you won&rsquo;t have an open window through which to speak to an agent in real time. However, Shopify&rsquo;s email-based support may still appeal to the traditionalists &ndash;&nbsp;or those with an internet connection too patchy to sustain a live chat conversation!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Average wait time for Shopify email support: 2 to 4 days.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text]\n <footer>\n <\/footer>\n\n\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]\n<section class=\"taco-content-section \" id=\"section-0\">\n <header class=\"taco-section-header no-number\">\n\n <div class=\"taco-section-heading\">\n <h2 class=\"taco-section-title primary\">\n \n Phone Support <\/h2>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/header>\n\n \n\n [vc_column_text]For support requests that require more in-depth attention than what a knowledge base or email chain can provide, Shopify&rsquo;s agents are on the other end of the phone 24\/7 to help out.<\/section><\/p>\n<p>The toll-free number to contact in the US is 1-888-746-7439, while &ndash;&nbsp;if you live abroad &ndash;&nbsp;Shopify&rsquo;s international customer support numbers are as follows:<\/p>\n<p><strong>United Kingdom:<\/strong> 0800-808-5233<\/p>\n<p><strong>Australia: <\/strong>03-8400-4750<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Zealand:<\/strong> 07-788-6026<\/p>\n<p><strong>India: <\/strong>000-800-100-5786<\/p>\n<p><strong>Malaysia: <\/strong>1800-80-6678<\/p>\n<p><strong>Singapore: <\/strong>800-181-1121<\/p>\n<p><strong>Indonesia:<\/strong> 007-803-651-0008<\/p>\n<p>While it <em>is <\/em>nice to speak to an agent on the phone &ndash;&nbsp;even just for the reason that they&rsquo;re a <em>real person <\/em>&ndash;&nbsp;we&rsquo;d be hesitant to recommend phone-based support over its live chat or self-service counterparts.

Unlike with Facebook, you can&rsquo;t chat in real time, but rather will have to include @shopify in your post. Of course, this has the benefit of making your customer support request public &ndash; meaning Shopify should care enough about its reputation to respond, if it hasn&rsquo;t already &ndash; so X can be ideal if you haven&rsquo;t heard back yet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Average wait time for Shopify support on X: 1 to 2 days.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&rdquo;63063&Prime; img_size=&rdquo;full&rdquo; alignment=&rdquo;center&rdquo;][vc_column_text]Of these three main social media platforms, Instagram is the least helpful when it comes to customer support.
