Serious flaw with support system

Thread needs solution

I've purchased Acronis 2016 a week ago and it will not login so that I may use it. it is registered, not blocked by firewall, other internet flow and transactions work fine. The app shows a kb article. I go to the kb article and it only says: "contact support" Here's the problem. I have no error number. It did not show an error number and in order to get through chat one must have "an appropriate" error number. I've tried using made up error numbers. I've tried using real error numbers from the knowledge base. No such luck it continues to show a page that it must be an "appropriate error number" So, I'm effectively blocked from getting any support.

I've tried to call and that is made even more impossible to talk to a live person. It wants me to PAY an outrageous sum of money in order to get this one problem fixed. I'm terribly sorry if this is not the correct forum to place this but the selection was not clear at all . Please someone send me a message how to get in touch with acronis support so I can use my product. good day Robert

Hi Rob!
"Error code" field in support contact form is optional and you can just leave it blank.
Let me know if it helps. If it doesn't, I'll be glad to create a support case for you.
Thank you,

Hi Rob,

Is the product activated? Not talking Registered.

Are you backing up to the Acronis Cloud or Local Backup?

What version of Acronis True Image 2016 did you buy?

Did you buy Acronis True Image 2016 or Acronis True Image Cloud?

http://www.acronis.com/en-us/personal/   Scroll down to see the difference.

Acronis server has been down for two days. Until server is back up you won't be able to login.
