There are different ways to contact the hosting company whose services you’re using, but the one that you will always find irrespective of which company you opt for is a trouble ticket system. This is the least complicated communication method for different reasons. In the event that no technical support team representative is free at the moment and they’re all busy, a phone call may not be responded to, but a ticket will invariably be received. Additionally, you can copy ‘n’ paste extensive pieces of info without the need to worry about spelling mistakes, and if a particular problem needs more time to be resolved or a number of responses have to be exchanged, all the info will be in the same location, so either party can always see the comments written by the other one. The negative side of using tickets to touch base with your web hosting company is that they’re usually separate from the hosting platform, which goes to say that if you have to provide information or to follow instructions, you will need to use at least 2 different accounts and this number might grow if you would like to manage a couple of domain names. Plus, a lot of web hosting providers respond to tickets after a few hours, or even once in every 24 hours, and for you as a client, this simply means wasted time while awaiting an answer.
