What information do I need for a live chat?

Have all your relevant documentation (e.g. a case or account number) and questions ready before you initiate the chat to ensure a seamless experience. Please note our consultants can view the transcript of your previous chats if your message relates to an earlier enquiry.

When typing a message, please provide as much information as possible – especially when the enquiry relates to a specific account. Providing the account number will ensure the consultant can provide accurate and complete information.

Can I use speech-to-text technology with live chat?

If you prefer to dictate your message using speech-to-text technology, Microsoft 365 and Apple dictation services can help you draft live chat messages.
