Hi mh34 

 

You arent on a trial are you? Support options are only available to paying users.

 

Also is there anything on there about times? Not sure of your timezone but could you be trying when its closed?

      Hi mh34, thanks for posting on the Community.

       

      What issue are you experiencing exactly that requires support? 

       

      Could you attach screenshots showing the current plan on this page, and the support options you see?

       

      This will help me to assist further.

        Hi Jay , I'm currently trying to resolve a sync issue and have opened a ticket on that (#24402288)

         

        I have also opened a ticket for the chat issue (#24411457) where I uploaded a video showing what you're requesting. 3 days and no acknowledgement on that ticket.
