Where is the support ??!?!?!?!

Post by bigbadvuk »

HEllo


I spent last 2 hours trying to figure out where are my download links, to no avail - I found every last offer of similar games, ofd possible DLCs, of additional campaigns etc. but no DL link itself. Then i saw that i must contact support to get them (!?!)
And then finally after sending support email i received automated reply that they are no longer at that address?!?!?!?!

So instead i have to go to some 4th place called BlueSnap support, which requires my NEW log in and new details and "Order Reference Number" ?!

WTH Matrix?! how do i get my games please , i hate being fked in circles for my own money![:@] ALl i need is simple DOWNLOAD LINK for games I payed to play!

Just open a tech support ticket or contact http://www.matrixgames.com/support/ with your order details (order reference number or/and email address used when placed the order) and they will provide you with new download links, sorry about this

Hi, I'm sorry to hear that you had a difficult experience. We certainly try to make it easy but sometimes things don't go as planned.

First of all, when you place an order the download links are provided in your web browser on the last post-checkout order page. They are also sent to you via e-mail to the e-mail address you provided during the order process.

If somehow both of those fail, that's when our support steps in. Bluesnap is our store partner and you should not go there for first-line support. Please use our support by creating a ticket here:
http://www.matrixgames.com/support/ and we'll get you a new download link right away. Generally you can expect an answer within an hour during business hours and within 12-24 hours outside of normal business hours.

I hope that helps.

Regards,

- Erik

To respond to this - as long as you are logged into your site account when you purchase, your purchase will automatically be registered in our Members Club as well. In that case, a re-download link is also automatically retrievable there at any time without going through Support.

However, if you are not logged in when you purchase, then you have to make a request through Support.

Erik this isn't the case. I have about 40 Matrix games, there listed under my games and my serial numbers but when I go into my orders(where the download links are) I have 5 listed for download, I have never seen all my games listed there for re-download, the list of games for re-download seems to change also. The press media site does have all my games listed for re-download under my account but that's not the case in my orders in the members section,I've never understood why they weren't all listed there.that being said when I have had issues with basically anything Matrix support has been excellent.

A couple of ideas on this:

1. The system for auto-registration and auto-download was not always there. We added that in around 2011, if I recall correctly. So games purchased before that would not have been added to it.

2. If you are not logged into your site account, it won't happen. This is different from your forum account.

If you contact our support folks with a help desk ticket they can also check and verify that it's one of the above rather than a glitch. When I've tested it since we implemented it, as long as I'm logged into the site account, my order gets added to the list for automatic re-download every time.

I count 24 purchases after 2011,but only 5 for download and not even all the most recent. For example DCB and CSME are not in my re-dowoad section but TOTH is. All my games are registered, I'm signed in when I buy and before 2011 I manually registered them , they all show under my registered games.I usually go to the press media site it has them all.

Hi Budd,

I stand corrected - I just found out from our support and production teams that there are some older games for which this does not work. That is news to me! I'll put this on the group chat agenda for next week and figure out how we can improve this ASAP. All new releases are getting added to this system as they are released, as far as I know.

No worries Erik, just thought it might be frustrating for new customers not having there downloads available when needed. Might want to check on that new games being added, like I said DCB and CSME which are fairly new releases aren't available in my re-download section, it's strange that the press media site has all of mine old and new but not the members section. Thx for looking g into it.
