How do I get a human at 23andMe?

Lead with your account email and one specific request. Vague messages get routed to automated replies; a specific, referenced request usually reaches a person on the first pass. If a bot replies, respond to the same thread restating the request and asking for it to be escalated.

What if 23andMe doesn't reply?

Follow up on the same thread after 7 days, a one-line nudge referencing the original date is enough. Still nothing after 14 days and money is involved? Dispute the charge with your card issuer; "no response from merchant" supports a chargeback on every major card network.

I'm contacting you about the account under [your account email].

[One sentence: what happened and the decision you want, e.g. "My order #1234 arrived damaged and I'd like a replacement."]

Please confirm what you'll do by reply within 7 days.

Best,
