Please help!! I paid for Adobe Acrobat Pro DC for one year on the 20th of March 2017. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and am logged into my account and it is still telling me I have a trial version and I need to put in a serial number only I do not have one. On the Manage Your Teams Page it says my status is Active, but on my products page it says I have no products. I don't seem to have a serial number. I tried to call yesterday and waited on hold for 2 hours then left my phone number. Someone called after 6:00 pm last night when our office was closed and told us to call back, but did not leave a number. Please call me? [XXXXXXXX phone removed as public forum] I am at my wits end and have wasted 4 hours + trying to simply use a product I paid for!

I am on Windows 10.

I have spent hours going round in circles on the Adobe website and cannot find any way to "Chat" even though it says this product should have "chat" support to assist with initial set up.  Every link seems to send me back to where I started (I think I have read and tried every trouble shooting tip listed)  and none of them lead to a link to email Adobe for assistance, chat or submit an online support request. I am seriously frustrated by how difficult this is, I am sure there is a simple solution to this problem and it is outrageous that it is so difficult to get simple assistance.

thank you,

Traci

Thanks Moderator, but please can you ask someone to call me and resolve this problem? How do I actually get some support form Adobe?!?!?!
