Chat wait time

Has anyone else had to wait over 2hrs on the chat thread to chat with an actual person? Any has anyone else been, say, 1st in line, and then had that change to 22? And then get stuck at 17 for half an hour? This seems outrageous.

    Hi @Hersh

    Usually it only couples of minutes, however, sometime can be longer

    @Whizz probably you should check with @Hersh

    Maybe it was a blip in the system, but I spent over 6 hours trying to chat with someone at fizz. I would get to 1st in line, then somehow get booted to 22. Then 33. Then 17….which I stayed at for a whole hour. Very frustrating. In the end, I gave up with the chat and moved to iMessage. 5 hours later I got a reply.

    Not really by my experience, because if I see 10+ waiting, I’ll try next time. I know sometimes very busy

    Oh boy, sounds like you've been on a rollercoaster in the chat queue! 🎢 Waiting times can indeed be frustrating, but you're not alone in experiencing the ups and downs of customer support queues.

    Also, please accept my apologies for the waiting time, as our responses might arrive with delay on messenger because it is not a real-time communication channel and the chat option might've been busy due to the high volume of customer inquiries.
