How to make an application correctly:
1. Before calling or writing to technical support, read the FAQ section at https://faq.cityhost.ua/
2. When contacting the support service, always indicate your ID
Each client has a unique ID (identification code) in our system. It is unique for each client and serves to clearly identify you as a user. The identification code looks like a sequence of "ID" characters and a set of numbers. For example, "ID-400037". These data are provided when registering on the company's website, and were sent to your postal address by e-mail. You can also find this information in your personal account on the CityHost.ua website. After receiving your ID, we will be able to determine exactly which services are provided to you at the moment.
3. Applications from existing customers must come only from the registered mailbox
4. If, after receiving an answer, you ask a clarifying or additional question on the same topic, do not remove the request identification number from the subject of the letter.
5. Describe in detail the error you encountered
6. If a problem occurs, try to describe it in as much detail as possible, specify the domain or mailbox, the sequence of your actions that could lead to its occurrence, and also attach the texts and screenshots of all received error messages. This will allow us to quickly determine the cause of the problem and eliminate it. Take your time sending messages. Please make sure that you have provided all the information necessary to resolve the issue, otherwise it may take longer to resolve issues.
Examples of how you can report different issues:
- You are having problems accessing the site. Tell us what address you are visiting, what program for accessing the Internet (browser) you are using, and exactly what error appears when you enter the site.
- You are having problems accessing your e-mail. Please state the name of the mail program you are using. Did you use mail in this program before or did you set it up for the first time. What are the problems: with sending or receiving. What errors does the program give (not a number, but a text).
- If the letters you sent do not reach the recipient, then let us know when, from which box and to which you sent the letter. If the letters are returned with errors, then send the text of the letter that was returned to you.
