Clients can contact the HostOX 24/7 support team via telephone, live chat, ticketing system, or email. You can also follow or write to them on their social media channels, including Facebook and Twitter. That said, my attempt to chat with one of the reps via live chat was unsuccessful. And then, after opting for an email, I did not get a reply.
The HostOX website offers a help center, but it lacks sufficient tutorials and articles.
