Where are "the experts"?

So far I'm pretty unhappy with the communication on the Taxtim site. They say in emails as well as the website that you can "talk to an expert" only there is no way of contacting said expert.

I have a simple Q that an "expert" could answer in seconds, but instead here I am whining on Hello Peter

I wish I could make this 2 stars. I have since had great need of their help/chat function and I'm unable to find out any info. Extremely frustrating

Hi there - Did you submit a question to https://www.taxtim.com/za/help/ask-a-tax-question?ask=ask#tax-question-form-section? If no, please ask advice there, if yes could you give me your email so I can find out what happened to your support query. 

Best regards,

Thanks but you know full well it does not take you to an expert you can ask a question of. It sends you to a page which gives an FAQ option and to an extra pay service.

ALL over your website it offers a "Chat" function, but it does not exist.

It falsely leads a person to believe that we can actually talk to someone when we have paid for a service, when really... you need to pay even more to talk to anyone.

If you would be so kind as to follow that link  you will see it takes you to the help desk (real person). The FAQ page is just a step in the process to see if the clients question has not already been asked which is 9 out of 10 times the case. This does speed up the process and helps us free up the help desk for users that can not find their question online. I am sorry for the frustrating process, we are working on making the customer journey a lot more clearer and simpler with the new website coming soon. 

Best regards,

I cant tell you with cer*****y, that clicking the link that says ASK A PROFESSIONAL is a dead link and does not link anywhere.

I have tried in both SAfari and Chrome, neither link anywhere
