Complain About Salesforce - File a Complaint Today

Getting in touch with Salesforce can feel like you're being intentionally sent in circles. Here’s a breakdown of the best channels, because using the wrong one is a guaranteed dead end.

Immediate for a robot, but days for a human. It's a real test of patience.

• Have Your Org ID Ready: This is the first thing they'll ask for. Have it copied and ready to go.
• Know Your Support Plan: Your level of support (Standard, Premier, Signature) dictates how quickly they have to respond. Mention it.
• Be Annoyingly Specific: Don't just say "it's broken." Say "When I click the 'Reports' tab in the Sales Cloud Lightning Experience, I get a 404 error. This started on Tuesday after the update." Attach screenshots.

If your first attempt gets ignored, don't give up. It's time to escalate. Your first move should be internal. Reply to your existing support ticket and explicitly ask for the case to be escalated to a Tier 2 support manager. State that your issue is unresolved and impacting your business operations. If that fails, loop in your Account Executive. They have a vested interest in keeping you as a client and can often push things internally.

If you're still getting nowhere, take it outside. The Better Business Bureau (BBB) is a solid next step. File a complaint on their website. Salesforce is a huge company, so they have a team that responds to BBB complaints to protect their rating. It works, but prepare to wait. A BBB complaint forces a formal, on-the-record response that a standard support ticket might not get.

Subject: Urgent: Unresolved Issue with Case #[Your Case Number] / Account #[Your Account ID]

Hi Team,

I am writing again to resolve an issue I first reported on [Date]. My original case number is #[Your Case Number], and despite my previous attempts to get help, the problem remains unsolved.

To be clear, the issue is [Clearly and concisely describe the problem, e.g., we are being incorrectly billed for 10 licenses that were deactivated on [Date]]. This error has wasted significant time for my team and is now affecting our budget planning. Frankly, having to chase this down multiple times has been incredibly frustrating.

To resolve this, I need you to correct the invoice #[Invoice Number] and provide a full credit of [$Amount] to our account. I also require written confirmation that the inactive licenses have been removed from our billing cycle moving forward.

If I don't receive a satisfactory response and a corrected invoice within 3 business days, my next step will be to escalate this directly with our Account Executive and file a formal complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

• Use Their Lingo: When you submit a ticket, use keywords from their own documentation. Mention things like "Lightning Web Components," "Apex code," or "Process Builder flow." It can help get your ticket routed to the right specialist faster.
• Request a Call: In your email or ticket, say "The issue is complex, please call me at [Your Number] to discuss." It forces them to engage beyond scripted email responses.
• Leverage the Trailblazer Community: One user on Reddit mentioned they got a faster fix by posting their issue in the public Trailblazer Community. Sometimes another expert user or a Salesforce moderator will jump in with a solution before your official ticket even gets a real response.
