# Contact support and include the details we need

> Use the [contact form](https://pdfbetter.com/contact/) (also under **Help** → **Contact support** in the app) or email support@pdfbetter.com. Include your account email, what you were doing, the exact error message, your browser and the time it happened. A person reads every message and replies within two business days.

1. **Open the contact form**: Go to [Contact](https://pdfbetter.com/contact/), or in the dashboard click the question mark (**Help**) → **Contact support**.
2. **Choose what it's about**: Pick from **What's it about?**: **A question**, **Something isn't working**, **Billing**, **A page or form is outdated**, **A page or template is broken** and more.
3. **Add your email and the page**: Enter **Your email** (the one on your account helps us find it) and the **Page URL** if it's about a specific page.
4. **Describe it and send**: Write what happened in **Message** and click **Send message**.

## Details that speed things up

- The exact error message, copied word for word, or a screenshot
- What you clicked just before it happened, step by step
- The document's name and roughly when it happened (with your time zone)
- Your browser and version, and your device (for example Safari 18 on iPhone, Chrome on Windows)
- For signing problems: the request's title and the recipient's email address
- For billing: the email you paid with and the last four digits of the card or the receipt number

> **Heads up:** Never send passwords, one-time codes or full card numbers. Don't attach a confidential document unless we ask for it; a description or a screenshot with private parts covered is usually enough.

The contact form doesn't take attachments. If you need to send a screenshot, email support@pdfbetter.com directly. [Report security issues](https://help.pdfbetter.com/privacy-security/security-certifications-and-reporting/) to security@pdfbetter.com.

Before writing, it's worth checking [Guides](https://pdfbetter.com/guides/) and the other articles in this section. For plan questions, [Pricing](https://pdfbetter.com/pricing/) lists every limit.

### How fast will I hear back?

Within two business days, usually sooner.

### I found an outdated official form or a broken template.

Choose **A page or form is outdated** or **A page or template is broken** and paste the page URL in **Page URL**.
