Refer to the Zendesk Portal guide for more information about the portal and how to create support tickets.
Click Submit. Your ticket will be created and you will be notified by email.
While you can submit a ticket without an account, having one gives you full visibility into all the tickets you’ve submitted, as well as access to any requests you have been copied on by your colleagues.
Creating an account on Zendesk
Creating a Zendesk account is optional, but highly recommended. To create your account, use the link: support.sinch.com. The sign up form is displayed:
Enter your full name and your work e-mail address. Click Sign up.
You will receive a confirmation e-mail from support@sinch.com. Click on the Verify your account button in the email to complete the registration process.
Once your account is verified, you will be able to create tickets, track their progress and manage your existing tickets.
Note: Sinch can also configure your team (if there are multiple users) to be a part of the same organization, that way your colleagues can all collaborate on all tickets logged by your organization.
Email support
If the Support Portal is unavailable, you can contact Sinch Support by e-mail: support@sinch.com.
Escalations
If you do not get a response from Sinch Support within a satisfactory timescale you can escalate the issue by adding a comment to your existing ticket in the Ticket Portal, or by contacting your Sinch Account Manager.
Systems Operational Status and Planned Maintenance information
The Sinch Status page (https://status.sinch.com) displays real-time Systems Operational Status for each of Sinch’s products and services and provides scheduled maintenance information.
You can subscribe for updates and alerts to get e-mail notifications whenever Sinch creates, updates or resolves an incident.
To ensure platform stability, Sinch endeavours to carry out all necessary maintenance for its platforms during scheduled maintenance windows, except for any emergency maintenances that may need to be carried out. Notifications will be created for any such maintenance work, in advance, in the Scheduled Maintenance section of the Sinch Status page. Learn more about the Sinch Status page.
