Can I speak to a person instead of the chatbot?

To speak to a person instead of the chatbot, ask for one in the chat or email thread you're already in. You don't need to start a new chat or send another email.

  • In a chat: type something like "speak to a human". The chatbot asks for the name or Customer Reference Number (CRN) of your Dext account and what you need help with. It then creates a case, and a member of our support team replies in the same chat.

  • By email: select Connect to an agent under the chatbot's reply, or reply asking for a person. You get an email confirming your request is with our support team, and a member of the team replies in the same email thread.


Ask for a call

To ask for a call, say so in your chat or email, and explain what you need help with. The support team reviews each request.


What to include in your message

To help our team pick up your request, include any of these details in your chat or email:

  • The name or CRN of your Dext account

  • What you were trying to do, and what happened instead

  • The exact wording of any message you saw

  • A screenshot or screen recording of the problem

If you can't log in, give the name of your account instead.

Tip:

  • To find the account CRN of a business account, go to Business settings > Business profile. In a practice account, go to Practice settings > Practice profile.

  • To find your user CRN, open the Profile icon in the top right, then select User settings.

You can only access this information in the Dext web app.


What happens after you contact support

After you contact Dext support, a member of our support team replies in your chat or by email. Human support is available 24 hours a day, Monday to Friday.

  • Chat: Replies appear in the Messages tab of the chat window in your Dext account. If you're not in the chat when we reply, you'll also receive an email notification.

  • Email: We reply to your email.
