How do I get through the phone menu to a live person?

Consider using our free service that calls and talks to customer service for you, then sends you a report. Or use our free service that waits on hold and tells you when a human rep is on the line. But if those options don't appeal to you, our team has also documented the phone menu for GameFly below.

Let us call and talk to GameFly for you

Our AI powered phone can dial, navigate the phone menu, wait on hold, and even talk to customer service for you, for free. You don't even need to learn about the path through the various phone options.

We can get a live person on the line for you

That same, free GetHuman Phone can call and navigate the menus and wait on hold for you, but you can opt to do all the talking. We notify you when a rep is on the line and ready to talk, so no need to worry about changing menu options and weaving your way through the maze.
Of course, we completely understand if you prefer to do all the dialing, waiting, and talking yourself. All of these free tools are optional.
GetHuman researchers routinely call this GameFly phone number to document the phone system.
Here is our latest tip for weaving through the phone menu to get to a real person the fastest: Directs you to support@gamefly.com
Below are some clips we've found from GameFly's phone menus and tips that help give an idea of what you will encounter when you call. We've highlighted why they are important as well:

What are the hours and when should I call?

GameFly operates the call center for this 888-986-6400 phone number Mon-Fri 8am-5pm, Sat-Sun 8am-4:30pm CT. The short answer is that you should call on a Tuesday. This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 800 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).

Automatically call when they open

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 GameFly 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 GameFly 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 GameFly 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 GameFly is Tuesday. The most busy day to call is Thursday. Again, this is based on a sample of 800 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 Monday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Wednesday.
But if you use our free call and talk for me or wait on hold for me service, you don't really need to worry about average wait times.

The best time to call GameFly

In summation, the best day to call GameFly is Tuesday. This is not the day with the shortest wait on hold in the phone system, but we still recommend it for its ideal combination of low call volume and short hold times. Plus we believe that GameFly staffs the call center well on Tuesday.

How Can I Cancel My GameFly Account?

As a gamer, you may have a membership with GameFly but have decided you don't want to use that platform anymore. You may have also reached the end of your free trial and decided GameFly isn't the best option for you. You can cancel your membership online through your account access, or you can email GameFly support to request your account is canceled.

What are the different subscription plans GameFly offers?

GameFly offers two subscription plans for gamers. The first plan is the "1 Game at a Time" option, which allows you to rent and play one game from their extensive collection at a time. This plan also gives you unlimited access to their library of digital PC games. The second plan is the "2 Games at a Time" option, which provides you with the opportunity to rent and enjoy two games concurrently. Just like the previous plan, it offers unlimited access to their digital PC games collection. Both plans come with free shipping, pre-played games, and the freedom to keep the games as long as you want. With flexible options, gamers can easily choose the subscription plan that suits their preferences and gaming habits.

How does GameFly's rental queue work?

GameFly's rental queue allows users to create a list of games they would like to rent. Users can add games to their queue based on their preferences and gaming interests. Once a game is added to the queue, GameFly automatically ships the next available game on the list. When the user is finished playing a game, they can simply return it in a pre-paid envelope, and GameFly automatically sends the next game in the queue. To prioritize the game selection, users can rearrange the queue according to their preferences. GameFly aims to ensure maximum availability by constantly restocking popular titles. With the rental queue system, users can enjoy a continuous stream of games, avoiding the need to individually select games for each rental and ensuring a smooth gaming experience.

GameFly Customer Email Addresses

GameFly Customer Help Desk / Web Support

gamefly.com - Customer Service
Online customer service support
As a last, sometimes only, resort- GameFly customer service can be accessed through their website.
