   To maintain security, do not include any personal information, sensitive data, or device or service credentials. For example, don't include passwords, API keys, secrets, or credit card information.

8. Review your case summary, and click Submit case.

You will receive an email notification that your case was successfully submitted.

According to the IBM Cloud Services Agreement, you are required to provide your customers a 30-day notice of any price changes. After you submit your support case, you must email the onboarding specialists at cloud.onboarding@ibm.com to help draft this notification. Client notifications are sent out on the first of the following month. After your notification has been sent, your updated pricing will go into effect on the first of the following month.

You can track the progress of your submitted case from the Manage cases page.

For the best support experience on IBM Cloud, it is recommended to have an advanced or premium support plan.
