Executive Summary
PyjamaHR offers multiple support channels—including live chat, e‑mail, and phone—for fast, effective help with your ATS platform questions, account issues, and urgent troubleshooting. This article explains exactly how to reach support, what to expect from each channel, and best practices for getting your issue resolved quickly. Whether you need urgent account reactivation, help with billing, or technical troubleshooting, this guide will help you get the right assistance, right when you need it.
Detailed Overview
PyjamaHR provides robust customer support through three main channels:
Live Chat: The fastest way to get real-time help, available directly within the PyjamaHR web app.
E‑mail Support: For detailed queries, document sharing, or when you need a written record.
Phone Support / Callbacks: For urgent, complex, or sensitive issues that require a direct conversation.
When to use each channel:
- Live Chat: For immediate troubleshooting, quick questions, or urgent account access problems.
- E‑mail: For sharing documents (e.g., business registration), following up on ongoing tickets, or when you need a written trail.
- Phone: For urgent account blocks, payment issues, or when chat/e‑mail hasn’t resolved your problem.
Integration with Other Features:
Support is tightly integrated with PyjamaHR’s account management, billing, and verification workflows. For example, account blocks, payment failures, or verification requests will often prompt you to contact support directly from the app.
Business Impact:
Fast, multi-channel support ensures minimal downtime, protects your hiring pipeline, and helps you resolve issues before they impact your business or candidate experience.

Advanced Usage & Best Practices
Always provide your registered e‑mail address when contacting support. Many workflows (account unlocks, verification, billing) require this.
Attach screenshots or screen recordings for technical issues—this helps support diagnose problems faster.
For account blocks or “Suspicious activity detected”: Be ready to confirm recent login locations/devices and explain any unusual activity (e.g., “I was traveling”, “My team logged in from two locations”).
For verification/account unlocks: Have your business registration, LinkedIn URL, and company website ready to share.
For payment issues: Check that your card supports international and recurring payments. If declined, try another card or contact your bank.
For urgent issues: Use live chat and provide your phone number for the fastest response.
Troubleshooting & Common Issues
Account Access Issues
Error: “Suspicious activity detected. Your account has been flagged for suspicious activity. For security reasons, access has been temporarily suspended. Please contact support to restore access.”
Solution:
- Use live chat to provide your registered e‑mail and phone number.
- Explain recent login activity (e.g., “I logged in from home and office”).
- Support will verify and unlock your account, usually within minutes to a few hours.
Common Causes:
- Logging in from multiple devices/locations (e.g., office and home)
- Sharing credentials with team members (not allowed—each user must have their own login)
- Using VPNs or traveling internationally
How to Avoid:
- Do not share your login credentials.
- If you need multiple users, add them as separate users in PyjamaHR.
Payment & Billing Issues
Common Problems:
- “Card declined” or “Unable to make payment”
- “International payments not enabled”
- “No UPI/Paytm/Google Pay option”
Solutions:
- Ensure your card supports international and recurring payments.
- Try a different card if one is declined.
- PyjamaHR only supports card payments (no UPI/Paytm/Google Pay).
- For invoice or billing questions, request a callback or e‑mail support.
Account Verification Issues
Common Problems:
- “Account blocked: We are unable to validate your company details.”
- “Please provide business registration, LinkedIn URL, and website.”
Solutions:
- E‑mail or upload your business registration, LinkedIn company page, and website URL.
- If you don’t have a LinkedIn company page, you must create one for verification.
- For new businesses, explain your situation—support may request additional documentation.
Job Posting & Technical Issues
Common Problems:
- “Job not published on LinkedIn”
- “Location not found”
- “Can’t upload resume”
- “Can’t export data”
Solutions:
- Use live chat to report the specific job ID and error message.
- Attach screenshots or screen recordings.
