Google Support- What’s in the Store for You?

| Updated on March 14, 2024

  • If you are looking for help from Google, there is no support number provided by Google.

  • The numbers claiming to be of Google’s are only spam.

  • You can take help from help articles provided by Google on its Contact Us page.

  • Google doesn’t consider it important to connect with you on the phone for every small issue you have such as lost password,etc.

Google CEO does not think of Google as a web search company rather he thinks of it as a technology company. The main motive of the company is to solve the problems of people with the help of technology. But here’s the catch: Google doesn’t really pay attention to the problems created by its own technical products.

So if you are searching for ‘How do I contact Google?’, here’s what you need to know:

  • There is no specific phone number for Google and if you are able to see one that possibly is a scam.
  • Google provides help by the means of informational blogs that can be read on its official ‘Google Contact Us’ page. On that page, they have provided complete support related information for every single product they have introduced till now. Here is the link for the same- https://www.google.com/contact/
  • Google is a ‘giant technology company’ that implies it will not entertain every one of you over the phone regarding minor issues like lost passwords or problems while signing in.

Google is busy easing our lives by creating more technological services and their products are widely used all over the world. So expecting them to answer your call in real is something not practically feasible.

But that doesn’t mean that they don’t value you or your security is not important to them. Contacting Google support is not just about dialing its phone number, you have other options to get in touch with Google.

How to Call Google?

Contrary to what has been mentioned above, you can contact Google customer service by dialing 1-855-836-1987. But still, no real person will talk to you unless you have a hardware related issue. The other scenario will be that you will only get to hear a recorded voice and that will instruct you which Google help page you must visit. You can also email Google for support at adwords-support@google.com. But there is no surety of receiving a response.
