All things Shopify and commerce
Hi,
I've been having a terrible time with Chat Support. Been through 6 different tickets and no one has gone back to me on this for the past 3 weeks! Even though they've told me that the matter has been escalated.
Background
So what happened was, I deactivated my store before going on holidays and then reactivated it when I returned. However, when I checked all the store settings again before launch, I realized the domain had been disconnected.
I've been through all of Shopify's verification process a dozen times but keep getting the same error "These domains couldn't be connected because the stores are frozen". Thing is, this is the only store with this particular domain and I've been told that there's nothing frozen on the store. I can access the store normally and do everything on it. It just the domain isn't connected. I even went through and showed my DNS settings to chat support but nothing worked. They kept asking me re-verify the domain ownership, for which I have done for many many time to no avail!
Has anyone experience this? If so, can you please provide some guidance because chat support isn't getting back to me. I've already spent 3 weeks on this matter and don't want this to get to the next week. I'll have no choice but to shut down the store as I don't want be paying another month for a store I can't use.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
I have the same issue. Did you fix it?
Nope! Still waiting... It'll be fourth week this week waiting for them! 😩
Hi did you get it resolved? I am having the exact same issue. Already 4 days and none from support has gotten back.
same issue here, shopify advisors don't seem to know how to solve the issue.

Thanks for reaching out. The link you provided just takes to the help center. Same place that we go to get in in touch with a random Shopify advisor. I am at two weeks now with this unresolved issue. Have contacted more than 15 Shopify advisors and still haven't been able to solve my issue. Is there a better way to connect with the appropriate technical support department that deals directly with the issue we are experiencing instead of connecting with a shopify advisor. We need to be able to connect with some one that is trained properly to be able to solve this kind of issue we are experiencing.
Did the exact same thing you did and have the exact same problem. At least I've gotten a support ticket, it's been 2 days and the CS Agent did realise very quickly they couldn't deal with it. Hopefully they can reinstate the domain, and restore the original status from frozen. To make matters worse I was point alluded to the problem immediately after I tried to log in and it said your trial has ended and to pick a plan. I've been a paying subscriber since 2021! Tried to re verify my domain because for some reason it disappeared and went to the my.shopify.xxxx URL as Primary. So to everyone else and Google, my website URL does not exist. Lovely. To top that off, I got msg from Google that some randomer was a new owner of the property via the search Console. Huh? Checked everything, nothing strange I could see and I still own and can view said property... spoke with the Domain Hosting Co. and nothing is out of place. They even did Shopify's TXT verification entry just in case I couldn't copy and paste. So very frustrating but lesson learnt, either move away from shopify or never deactivate the store, despite the caveats.
I've been having a similar issue. Shopify Support are totally clueless on how to help. In my case, they're denying that the domain I own was ever connected to my store.
Awful customer service.
I hope your issue gets resolved.
