Complain About Zoom - learn how to file a complaint

It's not just you. Zoom's support can feel like shouting into a void. Their Trustpilot score is a dismal 1.4 stars, and that's from over 2,500 reviews. It gets worse. The Better Business Bureau has logged over 1,100 complaints against them in the last three years alone. Most people are fed up with the same things: surprise billing charges and getting stuck in endless loops with technical support that goes nowhere. If you've been wrongfully charged or can't get a straight answer, you're in the right place. We'll show you exactly how to file a complaint that gets their attention.

Best ways to complain to Zoom

Trying to find the right person to complain to at Zoom can feel like a maze. They really push you towards their online portal, but here are the best ways to try and get a human response.

Contact Method Details & Availability Why use this instead...
Support Ticket Online portal, available 24/7 Best for non-urgent billing disputes or technical issues. Creates a paper trail.
Live Chat Available via their support page (often a bot first) Good for simple questions, but getting to a human can take persistence.
Phone 1-888-799-9666 (Sales/Billing) Use for urgent billing issues. Be prepared to navigate phone menus and potentially long hold times.
Social Media Tag @Zoom on Twitter/X A last resort for public complaints when all other methods have failed. They hate bad PR.

⏱️ Estimated Response Times from Zoom After Complaining

Immediate to 48 hours, but honestly, it often feels a lot longer.

Method Expected Wait Time
Phone 15 - 60 minutes (if you get through)
Email / Ticket 24 - 72 hours
Chat 5 - 30 minutes (to get past the bot)
App N/A (Directs to support portal)

🔍 Tips to Get a Quicker Response from a Complaint

  • Call their billing department first thing in the morning on a weekday to avoid the lunch rush.
  • Have your account number, recent invoice, and any screenshots ready before you contact them.
  • In the live chat, keep typing 'speak to agent' or 'human' to bypass the bot faster.

How to Escalate Your Complaint

If Zoom ignores your emails and support tickets, it's time to escalate. Your best bet is filing a formal complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). It's a non-profit that pressures companies to resolve disputes. You submit your case online, the BBB forwards it to a corporate contact at Zoom, and Zoom is expected to respond publicly. BBB works, but prepare to wait. It can take a few weeks, and sometimes Zoom needs a reminder or two before they actually post a response. Make sure you've already tried contacting Zoom directly, as the BBB will ask if you've made an effort to resolve it with the company first.

Email Template to Complain to Zoom

Subject: Formal Complaint: Unresolved Billing Issue on Account [[Account #]]

I am writing again to resolve an incorrect charge on my account, [[Account #]]. This is my third attempt to get this fixed, and my patience is running out.

On [[Date]], I was charged [[$Amount]] for a service I had already cancelled on [[Cancellation Date]]. I have already contacted your support team via ticket [[Ticket #]] but have not received a resolution. Frankly, having to chase this down and spend my time correcting your company's billing error has been incredibly frustrating.

To resolve this, I need you to issue a full refund of [[$Amount]] to my original payment method immediately and provide written confirmation that my account is closed and no further charges will be made.

If I do not receive a satisfactory response and confirmation of the refund within 48 hours, my next step will be to file a formal complaint with the Better Business Bureau and initiate a chargeback with my credit card provider.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Additional Helpful Tips to get Your Complaint Resolved

  • Ask for a supervisor immediately. If the first-level support agent is giving you the runaround, don't waste time. Politely but firmly ask to speak with a manager or supervisor who can actually solve the problem.
  • Request a ticket number and written confirmation. Never end a chat or call without a reference number and an email summary of the conversation. It's your proof.
  • Use specific keywords. Users on Reddit report that using phrases like "billing dispute" or "unauthorized charge" in the support chat seems to get you escalated to a human agent faster than generic requests for help.
  • Take screenshots. Before you cancel, take a screenshot of the confirmation page. It's saved me more than once when a company claimed I never cancelled.
