What are the hours and when should I call?
CNBC operates the call center for this 877-280-4548 phone number Mon-Fri 9am-5pm ET.The short answer is that you should call on a Wednesday.This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 53 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).
When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, it will automatically wait until the CNBC call center opens before trying to call.

An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this CNBC phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like CNBC staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.

The least busy day to call CNBC is Wednesday.The most busy day to call is Tuesday, which averages 325% more phone calls by comparison.Again, this is based on a sample of 53 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

As a last, sometimes only, resort- CNBC customer service can be accessed through their website.
