How to chat.

How to chat.

The best way to get what you need is to ask. Hiko’s not your run-of-the-mill chatbot and loves to help. Like all good chats, make sure you ask questions, keep them short, and steer clear of keywords. Hiko’s here to help you with all things Mercury and is always learning.
 

What can Hiko do?

Hiko is new and still has a bit to learn so won’t be able to answer everything but is already really helpful with the important stuff like moving, joining, and billing. With every chat Hiko learns and gets more helpful.
