My experience with customer service is that sometime they reply like reopening my account but other time they never reply like once i praise a website(not lichess) saying that there analysis is better than chess.com.
I think this situation of not replying is rampant even on Facebook and Instagram. Infact out of 10 messages i sent i get reply on only one messages.And that's actually between who studied in institution together. There is something sexy that they want to enjoy themselves without sharing it to others.
If you purchased with Pay-Pal..... their filter doesn't know the difference between a 1-time purchase, and a recurring annual subscription. The date creeps up on you. If you have insufficient funds,....my bank hits me with an overdraft fee. I've done it with Drum Channel.com
