Why can't I connect with a human on the support chat?

I keep trying to connect with a human when I'm on the support chat but the AI does not connect me with someone an instead says to log in and select my store. When I click the link to select my store, my browser gives me an error that the page is not available.

 

Side note: initially I could not remember my log in details and could not access support without logging in. The AI was useless when dealing with that issue since I could not log in to select my store in the first place, seems like a flaw in the system. I got my log in details by sheer luck of guessing what my email was as my email was not saved anywhere on my computer but I had the original URL of my website which could've been easily looked up by a human who was impossible to reach.

 

thanks for any help with this issue

Hi, 

 
Yes that is my issue, the webpage in that link will not open regardless of which browser i use. I cleared my cache, history, etc in both browsers, restarted my computer, connected to a different wifi, nothing will work to open the help page.
