Ticketing System
The ticket system allows you to keep track of your inquiries, and make sure they get sent to the right staff member when they're submitted. This helps speed up our process to get you help faster!
Create a support account: Your support account is separate from your RLC/UV account, so you will need to register when you submit a ticket. Once you'd submitted your ticket, you will be sent an email to activate your account.
Please use the email associated with your RLC/UV account when creating a ticket. This will allow us to serve you much quicker, as many actions cannot be performed without the account-owner's consent.
Select the right Help Topic to get help faster! Choosing a help topic that fits your inquiry means you don't have to wait for your ticket to be forwarded to the correct department. If you're not sure, that's okay! Your ticket will be sent to the right department, but you may experience a slight delay in service while that happens.

Please send your email from the email-account associated with your RedLightCenter/Utherverse profile. This will allow us to serve you much quicker, as many actions cannot be performed without the account-owner's consent.
