How to Make Sure Support Desk Emails Hit Your Inbox
After you've been given access to the PBCi Support Desk portal, we want to make sure you get your email notifications and status updates in the right place.
Here are a few tips for ensuring our emails make it to your inbox based on your email provider. For all email providers, be sure to add "[email protected]" to your contact list.
Pro tip: Make sure to check your Spam folder. If you ever see one of our emails in your Spam folder, be sure to mark it and all future messages from the sender as not spam. Also, make sure your inbox is not full, as this will prevent the delivery of Support Desk emails.
