Microsoft will definitely speak to people who aren’t partners - I work for a small business (12 people) and the two times I have had to go to Microsoft for support on 365 they have been incredibly helpful.

That's support you pay for tho. We also were surprised when i worked at a 9 person company to get someone from google on the line too when we were considering using google maps api for a project. Support which wasn't payed for but which I assumes comes from the expectation that we might become a paying customer.

The other side is that with some companies you can’t even pay for support if you wanted. I’m looking at you, Google.

Good luck with getting to Google support if you are paying customer.

"Terraria canceled on Stadia after developer gets locked out of his Google accounts" is just recent example
