In fact, much of this information on this page is superfluous because this Epson phone number is a direct line to a human being. The line is well-staffed and you should anticipate a very short wait on hold or none whatsoever, as long as you are calling during business hours.
We don't know of any phone menus you would encounter when calling either.
What are the hours and when should I call?
Epson operates the call center for this 800-533-3731 phone number Mon-Fri 6am-8pm, Sat 7am-4pm PT.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 700 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 Epson call center opens before trying to call. It will ask your permission before it places the call, so you can also further delay that scheduled call until you are ready. But that means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
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 Epson 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 Epson 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 time to call
The least busy day to call Epson is Saturday.The most busy day to call is Tuesday, which averages 142% more phone calls by comparison.Again, this is based on a sample of 700 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold
We measured the shortest hold times to be on Wednesday.The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Friday.
In summation, the best day to call Epson is Wednesday.It isn't the least busy day, but the fact that hold times are shortest combined with it being on the busy side tells us that Epson staffs up on Wednesday to handle the higher call volume, and that makes it the best time to call.
Once again, please put this information in perspective because this phone number has no phone menu or long waits. It generally gets picked up right away if calling during their opening hours. If there is any way, it will typically be very short.
Calling Epson's customer support can be a simple process, as I recently learned when trying to contact a representative about purchasing a new printer. The automated system that answers the phone lets callers know they've reached Epson's Customer Relations and gives you only two choices for assistance: technical support or customer relations.
Since I didn't have a technical issue, I selected customer relations and was told that my call may be recorded for quality purposes. While waiting on hold, a recorded greeting from Basketball Hall-of-Famer Shaquille O'Neal let me know that all representatives were busy, but I'd be helped soon. Apparently, after checking online, I discovered that Epson has partnered with Shaquille O'Neal as an ambassador for their products. I thought it was a fun surprise as part of the hold time.
After waiting no more than five minutes, a representative came on the line asking for my name and phone number in case we became disconnected. After providing this information, I shared my interest in purchasing a new printer with him. He asked what kind I was using now and if this printer was for home or business use. I explained that my wireless printer, combined with a scanner, is at least eight years old and used at home for personal items. However, I did tell him the scanner had stopped working, so that function wasn't available.
The rep recommended one of Epson's all-in-one printers that would be economical for home use as well as similar to what I'm familiar with but more advanced in options. Since I was near my computer while chatting with him, he provided me with a direct link to the printer he was recommending so I could see it. He explained that this printer uses easily fillable ink tanks rather than cartridges and provides longer-lasting ink for many printing projects. This printer also includes a high-resolution scanner and wireless capabilities. An online deal would provide me with a cutting-edge printer and up to two years of ink. I was concerned that the cost to replace the ink might be expensive, but he assured me that I would be paying around the same or less as I do now but for longer-lasting ink bottles.
While this printer sounded like a good fit, I told the rep I'd rather see it in person first and asked where Epson printers are sold. He said most retailers, including Walmart, Target and Office Depot, carry Epson printers, but I would probably find better pricing online. He suggested visiting a store to see the printer and then purchasing online, which would come with secure delivery and tracking. In addition, Epson sometimes offers free shipping for online purchases.
The call was productive and ended after about 10 minutes, which was a decent amount of time. The streamlined menu options at the start of the call are very helpful features, allowing callers to directly address their needs without navigating multiple and possibly convoluted choices.

Information about why customers call Epson is extracted from issues that customers have reported to GetHuman.
If phone-based customer service is not available, or the wait times are long, many people prefer chat as a next-best option. Some even prefer it to calling on the phone. Luckily, Epson provides this option.
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Epson customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
