TELEPHONE LINE REPAIR PROCEDURES

Top

 

TELEPHONE LINE IS DEAD OR YOU ARE GETTING STATIC ON THE LINE
Following are the steps to be taken if you are experiencing trouble with the telephone line in your residence hall:

  • Go to the front desk of your residence hall. You will be given a test phone to try in your telephone jack.
  • If the test phone works, this indicates the problem is with your personal telephone equipment. You are responsible for obtaining new equipment.
  • If the test phone does not work, call the Solution Center at x3-1511 to report the problem. The report will be given to a repair technician for resolution.
