Re: Helpline never works?
HI Outlander,
The chat function for SANE's Helpline can change depending on the availability (or non availability) of counsellors. I'm sorry it's been tricky getting through in this particularly difficult period for so many.
If chat is busy or unavailable for a long period another options to consider is to request a call back if you are wanting to connect with a counsellor: https://www.sane.org/services/help-centre

Re: Helpline never works?
Hi @outlander
Thank you for the heads-up around web-chat availability. As far as I know, this is not a tech issue but is more around Counsellor availability as @Ochre said. I understand this can be difficult and I'm sorry around your trouble trying to reach us. However, I am glad you do have an online counsellor you access.
Thank you for being a conscientious Community Guide!
Kindest,
Amour_Et_Psyché

Hi @outlander I havent seen the chatline working for months and just presumed it was no longer in use which is a shame as I used to find it very useful.
