Customer Support Reply Templates

Support replies are the same twenty answers written two hundred times a week. These templates keep the tone friendly and the facts right, and the fill-in fields make each one personal in a second.

Words in [brackets] are fill-in fields: with the extension, a small form asks for them, and dates fill themselves in.
