What are CENTR support hours?Updated a month ago

Support Hours Overview

Our CENTR support team is available to assist you during specific business hours. Understanding when our team is actively responding to inquiries helps you know when to expect replies and plan accordingly for time-sensitive issues.

Active Support Hours

Our support team actively monitors and responds to inquiries during these hours:

  • Days: Monday through Friday
  • Hours: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Pacific Time (PT)
  • Time Zone: Pacific Time (Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle)
  • Excluding: US federal holidays and company closure days

What This Means for You

During Business Hours (Monday-Friday, 9 AM - 5 PM PT)

When you contact support during our active hours:

  • Initial acknowledgment: Typically within a few hours during the same business day
  • Full response: Within 24 hours for most inquiries
  • Complex issues: May take 24-48 hours with regular updates
  • Fastest resolution: Issues submitted early in the business day often receive same-day responses

Outside Business Hours

You can still contact us anytime:

  • Email submission: Send your inquiry to [email protected] 24/7 - your message will be queued
  • In-app messages: Submit via the Help button in your Profile anytime
  • Response timing: Messages sent after 5 PM PT Friday will be addressed starting Monday morning
  • Weekend emails: Received and queued for Monday response (next business day)

Converting to Your Time Zone

If you're located outside the Pacific Time zone, here's when our support hours fall in other common time zones:

United States

  • Pacific Time (PT): 9 AM - 5 PM
  • Mountain Time (MT): 10 AM - 6 PM
  • Central Time (CT): 11 AM - 7 PM
  • Eastern Time (ET): 12 PM (noon) - 8 PM

International

  • UK (GMT/BST): 5 PM - 1 AM (next day)
  • Central Europe (CET/CEST): 6 PM - 2 AM (next day)
  • Australia (AEST): 2 AM - 10 AM (next day)
  • New Zealand (NZST): 4 AM - 12 PM (next day)

Note: Time conversions may vary during Daylight Saving Time transitions. Pacific Time observes Daylight Saving Time from March to November.

Best Times to Contact Support

To get the fastest response, consider these timing strategies:

Optimal Contact Times

  • Early weekday mornings: Tuesday-Thursday, 9 AM - 11 AM PT tend to have faster response times
  • Mid-week: Tuesday through Thursday typically see less volume than Mondays and Fridays
  • Avoid Monday mornings: Volume is highest due to weekend accumulation
  • Avoid Friday afternoons: If your issue needs back-and-forth communication, starting Friday afternoon may delay resolution until Monday

For Urgent Issues

If you have a time-sensitive issue:

  • Submit early in the business day (before noon PT) to maximize same-day response potential
  • Include all relevant information in your first message to avoid delays from follow-up questions
  • Mark the subject line appropriately (e.g., "URGENT: Cannot access paid subscription")
  • For billing disputes with Apple or Google, contact them directly as they operate 24/7

Making the Most of Support Hours

To ensure efficient support when contacting us:

Before Contacting Support

  1. Search this Help Center for immediate answers to common questions
  2. Try basic troubleshooting for technical issues (restart app, check for updates, clear cache)
  3. Gather relevant information (account email, device details, screenshots, error messages)
  4. Check your account settings for subscription and billing information

When Contacting Support

Include in your initial message:

  • Your account email address
  • Detailed description of the issue
  • Steps you've already tried
  • Device and OS information for technical issues
  • Screenshots of error messages
  • Order numbers for physical product inquiries

Providing complete information upfront reduces back-and-forth and speeds up resolution, especially if your message is received outside business hours.
