Hi! 

I just integrated a Whatsapp Account to Zendesk and I cannot delivered messages back to my clients. 

Any idea why? Has it happen to other people.

Hey Daniel,

It looks like you have a ticket created with our Customer Care team regarding this issue. One of our agents will follow-up with you in that ticket to discuss this issue further.

Cheers!


Hello, Any solution? I have several customers with problems for the same reason... sounds like a Zendesk issue.

DO NOT USE WHATSAPP INTEGRATION, ZENDESK'S CUSTOMER SUPPORT WON'T ANSWER AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REPLY MESSAGES TROUGH ZENDESK TO WHATSAPP.!!!!

Same problem here, paid account, verified at facebook and everything in order. Still waiting for the group of experts to help me with a ticket registered several days ago. I really don’t know when or if it will be resolved.

@Sergio Carrillo Zendesk is having problems sending messages to Mexican phones. After several days I got this answer:

Thanks a lot for the information provided.

In this case, looking at your ticket examples, I found the following error in our logs:This error is due to WhatsApp's new pricing test for end users with a Mexican WhatsApp number. You can find the announcement for this test here: https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360058475733-Announcing-an-upcoming-WhatsApp-conversation-pricing-test

{"href":"https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/api/errors/","code":402,"title":"Message failed to send because there were one or more errors related to your payment method"}

This is affecting sending messages to the requesters of tickets because they have a Mexican phone number. 

We are working on adding the ability to share our line of credit with your WhatsApp Business Account. Once this feature is available you can use our line of credit to message Mexican phone numbers. 

I will link your request to our internal problem ticket so you can receive an update as soon as this becomes available. 

Best regards,

Apparently Facebook used Mexico to test their new business model and Zendesk prefers saving some bucks rather than providing a good service in Mexico.

We had to get in touch with our sales rep and upgrade our plan to pay for this extra cost. More than 2 weeks since we started the process but still can not send messages.

I hope this information helps.

Hi @...

Has anyone found the solution? I have the same problem here.

Hi Maria,

Channels can have an expiration period. For WhatsApp, agents cannot respond more than 24 hours after the last end-user response. When the timeout is reached, you can reconnect with the requester on another channel. For example, email or call. See WhatsApp 24-hour rule.

Can you please confirm if you are responding to the WhatsApp ticket within the 24-hour period? Thanks!

Hi @christine17

You are right, the problem is the 24 hours...

We now have the problem that we cannot send the message offline with the migration to Agent Workspace. 

You can see here my post in other discussion.

How can I solve this problem???

Thanks,

Maria
