What are the hours and when should I call?

Microsoft Teams operates the call center for this 800-865-9408 phone number Mon-Fri 9am-11pm 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 NaN calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).
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 Microsoft Teams 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 Microsoft Teams 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 Microsoft Teams is Wednesday. The most busy day to call is Tuesday. Again, this is based on a sample of NaN 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 Thursday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Monday.
The best time to call
In summation, the best day to call Microsoft Teams is Wednesday. 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 Microsoft Teams staffs the call center well on Wednesday.

My Experience Calling Microsoft Teams at this Number

Adam Goldkamp is the editor / author responsible for this content.
Aug 9, 2023

When I called Microsoft Teams, I discovered that the phone support system is merely used to send customers online to get answers to their questions. Upon calling, I was first given the option to switch to Spanish. When I declined, I was next asked if I was calling as a home user or business account, and I said I was a home user. No buttons are given; the caller must actually speak their preference.

I was then asked to describe my problem, and I said that my video camera was not working properly. When I did, I was directed to an automated message that told me that support had been moved online and that I needed to visit help.microsoft.com. The message was repeated twice for my convenience, and when I remained on the line, the automated system asked me if I would like to receive a text message to the number I was calling from with that information.

I said that I would, and the automated system said that it would send a text message and to give it a moment to do so. At that moment, my phone dinged with a message from Microsoft directing me to their online support page. The automated system then wished me a pleasant day and automatically hung up.

Overall, my feelings on this site are a little bit mixed. On one hand, I appreciate that Microsoft wastes no time in letting the customer know that they cannot receive help over the phone and must go online to receive assistance of any kind. Given that some customer service numbers force the customer to wait through multiple menus before making clear that support must come online, this is a good touch.

It's also very helpful to get a text message option delivered right to your phone. This gets around the potential problem of not having internet available on your computer, and it makes it easy to get the information you need without having to write anything down. Considering that few people have pen and paper on them easily, this can erase an unnecessary step in the process.

On the other hand, not having any kind of access to phone support can make it difficult to get proper assistance with certain problems. I get that Microsoft wants to move all of its support online given that it's entirely focused on technological solutions, but not every issue can be solved easily via text or chat. Overall, I think Microsoft does a few things to make this easier for its customers, but it's not an ideal customer service experience.

Adam has been tirelessly trying to help customers find the best tips and tricks to get through phone trees and writing many guides for prickly customer service problems. He's been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Inside Edition and Bloomberg.
