Unable to contact Microsoft Office

How do I talk with a real person at Microsoft Office? I changed my server from "Shaw.ca" to iCloud.com in April (same prefix in email). I spent two and a half days then trying to make the changes with Microsoft Office before I lost access using old email. I want to be able to access old documents under my old email, as well as any I create with my new.

I cannot open my previously created documents. I can view list but not open. I have no access to "shaw.ca" email as they are not my server anymore.

I am tired of having to recreate old documents I just want to update.

Also, I am not sure if I was successful in changing email so I get billed to correct email when current year is up.

Help.
