Support details
Support email
Email your request to web@getalpha.ca. Email-based support helps keep requests trackable, prioritized, and complete.
What to include
- Affected domain or page URL
- Clear description of the issue or requested change
- Replacement text or referenced files if needed
- Screenshots where helpful
- Urgency if the request is time-sensitive
Support hours and response timing
Our support department is available to ALPHA+V3 customers from 9:00am to 4:30pm Pacific time, Monday through Friday, excluding stat holidays and blackout dates.
During normal support hours, requests are typically reviewed within 10 to 15 minutes.
Email setup help
If you have a legacy hosting account or Managed VPS service that includes email hosting and you need help setting up a device or workstation, please contact your IT provider. That work can also be handled through our parent company, ALPHA IT.
Urgent requests and incidents
If your issue is urgent, state that clearly in your initial email or in your reply to the existing support request. If the issue affects multiple users, core website access, or critical business operations, include that information right away.
Urgent requests submitted during blackout periods may involve an additional charge.
Standard update timing
Most routine content update requests are completed within 2 business days. If a true rush is required, include that in the request. Requests received by 2:00pm Pacific are reviewed for possible same-day completion where practical.
Updates requiring more than 30 minutes of work move into the production queue. Unless covered by a maintenance agreement, support and update work is billed at $37.50 CAD per 15 minutes.
Frequently asked questions
How do I request a website content change?
Send an email to web@getalpha.ca with the affected page URL, a clear description of what should change, and the final replacement text or files.
What should I include in a technical support request?
Please include the page URL, what is happening, whether the issue can be reproduced, the steps needed to reproduce it, and screenshots where helpful.
What if my files are too large to email?
Do not send large files by email. Open your support request first, let us know the files will be sent through our large file transfer link, then send all related files together in one transfer whenever possible so they can be matched to your request properly.
What counts as an urgent request?
An urgent request is one that affects core website functionality, prevents access, causes a major public-facing issue, or has a clear time-sensitive business impact.
Are support requests completed outside regular hours?
Routine support is handled during normal support hours. Requests submitted outside those hours are reviewed when support reopens unless special arrangements have been made.
What happens if a request exceeds included maintenance time?
Once requested work is underway, it is completed through to the appropriate stopping point. Time beyond what is included in your plan is billed at the then-current applicable rate according to your agreement.
