Contacting DreamHost via Live Chat

Overview

When contacting support via Live Chat, a technician may not be immediately available to respond – please be patient as DreamHost support works to address your issue.

Not all issues can be resolved promptly via chat. If during your chat your issue requires further investigation, the technician will instruct you to open a ticket (email) so that support may investigate your issue further.

Live Chat is also available in Spanish. View the following article for more information:

Requesting sensitive information

DreamHost support is not able to provide any sensitive account information via the Live Chat system for security reasons, and is only able to email requested sensitive information to the address that is listed as the primary email on your account.

Hours of operation

Live Chat is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
