# Getting Support

<mark style="color:yellow;">Because Counterparty itself is community developed, community funded, and primarily upkept by active community developers and avid users, getting support usually starts with an in-depth reading the documentation already published about the platform.</mark>

The official place to document issues is: <https://github.com/jdogresorg/freewallet-desktop/issues>

* The official support room on Telegram for Freewallet is: <https://t.me/freewallet_io>

<mark style="color:red;">There is no support team.</mark> <mark style="color:yellow;">Be careful for fake users reaching out using Direct Messages.</mark>

<mark style="color:red;">**Nobody that is legitimate will try to DM you to solve issues.**</mark>&#x20;

Issues are <mark style="color:yellow;">always solved publicly</mark> in the Freewallet Telegram, on the Freewallet Github, or in the Counterparty Github.

Solving new issues takes time to diagnose as well as community members ready and willing to help. <mark style="color:yellow;">Please be patient and to include as much information as you can about your issue.</mark>
