MLG Customer Support

Did you know that MLG had customer support? I always just assumed they were like Steam where you could only email MLG and maybe they’d get back to you. They even have a phone number you can call and have a real person to help with your problems. My buddy BAH and I ended up calling the MLG hotline for assistance before Spring Arena #1. And I just wanted to share my thoughts in regards to the support hotline.

Following the advice of Mr. David Ting and being a huge fanboy, I once again found myself paying for this weekend’s MLG Spring Arena #1. I think supporting MLG is a worthy investment and I’m happy they adjusted their price to be more reasonable versus their first PPV venture. Fortunately, instead of paying $30 for the entire season, BAH has a MLG Gold Membership and it only cost $15.

But there was a problem. BAH couldn’t get his account to work at all. We tried logging in on multiple browsers and deleting cookies, but we just couldn’t access his account. So I jokingly suggested that we call MLG…and it turned out they really do have a number. BAH called to figure out why he can’t log in. He instantly got a real live person who was extremely helpful. There wasn’t even an automated message stating what the line was; a real live person said “Yo, this is the MLG Support Line. How can I help you?” After sorting out the fact that somehow BAH’s account magically disappeared and needed to be reinserted into the system, we happily settled into watch some StarCraft action.

I was really surprised that MLG had such good customer support. I’m so used to having automated systems and run-around prompts. It was really nice to just get a real person to talk to. My thanks to MLG for trying to take care of even the smallest items. Now if only they could change their brackets so that they make more sense.

Edit: Apparently the number changes to live chat? I swear it was there though: 1-855-472-2654

I wonder how many hits the customer support gets, was your friend the first one ever? did he get a discount or something?

No idea. Apparently when there's no tournaments it goes back to a Live Chat too

My experience with their customer support was that they're actually pretty terrible. I had a problem with the player not working on one of my computers and they kept replying with garbage form answers and then calling the matter closed before I could reply and tell them that wasn't my issue.

The guy spelled like an idiot too.

Really Jibba? That sounds pretty bad but maybe they've changed for the better? Or I got lucky haha.
