Voice Issues
Phase 1: Customer-Side Verification
Before investigating system-level configurations, rule out common device and physical factors:
- Environment Check: Determine if the issue is location-specific (e.g., dead zones, buildings with poor reception).
- Toggle Airplane Mode: Advise the customer to turn on Airplane Mode for 10 seconds and then turn it off. This forces the device to re-register with the nearest cell tower.
- Network Settings: Ensure the device is set to VoLTE (Voice over LTE) if supported, as many modern carriers require this for high-quality voice service.
- Device Restart: Power the device off completely for 30 seconds and then restart it.
Phase 2: Telgoo5 System Diagnostics
If the issue persists, use the Telgoo5 portal to verify account status and voice-specific provisions.
-
Check Account Status:
- Search for the customer account in Telgoo5.
- Verify the account status is Active (PC95). If suspended or deactivated, voice service will be blocked.
-
Verify Voice Buckets:
- Click on Live Status (PC499) in the Line Information section.
-
Inspect the DYN_DOM_VOICE quantity. If the remaining balance is zero, the customer cannot make or receive calls.
- Resolution: Perform a Plan Renew (PC519) if the voice bucket is exhausted.
-
Check Call Features:
- Look for features that might be blocking calls, such as Call Barring or Do Not Disturb settings on the device side, or account-level restrictions.
-
Check Features (PC92) in the Quick Links to ensure no voice-blocking features have been applied to the account.
Phase 3: Carrier & Backend Escalation
If the account is active, the voice bucket has balance, and the device is verified, the issue may be a synchronization error.
-
Check for Provisioning Errors: Verify if the device is correctly provisioned for voice in the HLR (Home Location Register).
- If the customer cannot receive calls but can make them (or vice versa), this often points to a routing issue at the carrier level.
- Sync/Refresh: If the system shows the device is active but the customer still has no voice service, you may need to reach out to carrier support to reprovision the line.
-
Ticket Escalation: If the issue is persistent, open a support ticket with the carrier, including:
- The MDN (Mobile Directory Number).
- The time of the most recent failed call attempt.
- A description of the error (e.g., "Calls go straight to voicemail," "Hear a fast busy signal," "Call drops immediately").
Pro-Tip: Always document the troubleshooting steps taken in the Customer Notes (PC83) section.
