Support Hours and Where Chat Is Available
Live Chat: Monday–Friday, 11:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m. ET
Chat is available from the admin side of getthru.app.
Start a Chat

What to Expect During Your Chat
- The chatbot will suggest relevant help articles and ask follow‑up questions to route your request.
- During chat hours, a live agent is available to assist after the first suggestion.
- If additional investigation is needed, we’ll create a support ticket that includes your chat details and continue the conversation there.
If Chat Is Closed
- Outside live chat hours, if the bot cannot answer your question, it will create a support ticket.
- We’ll follow up by email during support hours. You can always check progress via Check Ticket Status in the Help Center.
After Your Chat
- If we created a ticket, you’ll receive a confirmation email with your ticket number.
- To keep all updates in one place, reply to that email or add details in the Help Center.
Tips for Faster Help
Share a brief summary in the chat, then paste relevant details as needed:
- Steps to reproduce and what happened.
- URL of the page where you’re seeing the issue.
- Screenshots with the browser address bar visible.
- Affected users (name/email/phone if relevant).
FAQ
Can volunteers use live chat?
Live chat is designed for admins. If a texter or caller needs help, please open a ticket on their behalf or CC them.
How fast will someone reply?
During chat hours, an agent will join after the chatbot gathers details within a minute or two. Outside those hours, you’ll be directed to submit a ticket.
Will my chat be saved?
Yes. If a ticket is created, your chat transcript is attached, so you don’t need to re‑explain. If you have unread chat messages, they will be emailed to you after an hour.
