How to Log a Service Desk Request
To ensure we can resolve your issue as efficiently as possible, we recommend that you provide as much information as possible when submitting a request. There are two ways to log a request:
1. Via Email
Our support email addresses are monitored during our business hours (listed above). Upon sending an email, you will automatically receive a ticket number. Please ensure that this ticket number is included in all further communications regarding the issue.
Important: Do not send any sensitive data, such as passwords, in your emails to comply with GDPR regulations.
Email Format Guidelines
When submitting a service request or incident via email, please use the following format to help us better understand and address your query:
- Subject: Service Name – Brief Description of the Issue
- Body: Include a detailed description of the issue, along with:
- Service URLs and Username
- Examples such as logs, timestamps
- Screenshots (if applicable)
- Any changes required
If replying to a ticket, ensure the subject line starts with Ticket#<Ticket Number>.
2. Via Phone
When you call us, a support representative will attempt to resolve your issue during the call. If we are unable to answer the call, a ticket will automatically be created. Please leave a voicemail with the details of your issue, so we can have the necessary information to get back to you promptly.
For faster service, you may send an email with the details of your query before or after your call. Please remember not to share sensitive information like passwords over the phone, in compliance with GDPR.
Priority Levels and Response Times
We categorize service requests and incidents based on their priority to ensure that urgent issues are resolved as quickly as possible. The priority levels and expected response and resolution times are outlined below:

P5 | Non-fulfillable requests or bug fixes | N/A | N/A |
P4 requests will be prioritized and may require further agreement between Phonovation and the client.
