Can someone who has successfully submitted a ticket to PWI and gotten a response please tell me how long it took them to receive a response? I know they probably get lots of tickets so I would just like to know how long I should expect to wait.

    It depends on when you submit a ticket and the contents of the ticket. For example, if you submit a ticket on friday night, you will probably receive response on tuesday. The GMs/ticketing people are pretty fast at responding to tickets.

    Time of response varies. I've submitted one and received response in 1-2day work days, and once in 3-4 work days.
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Depends on what the issue is.

    I would say 1-3 days depending on there work load, amount of tickets and the severity of the issue at hand.

    Be patient. It is hard and believe me I know!! b:surrender

    As long as it is not regarding:
    charm packs
    TW reset
    male veno, female barb

    uhhh, cant think of anymore atm. But, your best bet is to submit a ticket.

    Let's go for a happy medium and say 2-4 days, unless otherwise specified by any autoresponse message received after submitting your ticket. I wouldn't get your hopes up for a response within a day, some users tend to get impatient and start spamming the forum even a few hours after submitting the ticket.

    The main thing to consider is the sheer volume of users that we support, this coupled with our emphasis on being very thorough with our replies may lead to slightly longer response times. This is all dependent on how many e-mails we are receiving on any given day.

    I pointed out a typo in the cash shop and got a response in 1-2 days. Tougher question = longer time to respond?

    when u submit a ticket, are u supposed to get one of those "Thank you for submitting a ticket, we will respond as soon as we can" type auto-confirmation emails? seems like most places send those out and i haven't gotten one- wondering if i got it in correctly or not...

    We do not have an auto-reply feature, no. However, I have confirmed with our customer service team that your e-mail was received and is in the queue.
