Create Trouble Tickets for Verizon Services

This table lists the product/circuit types for which Verizon users can create trouble tickets. This table also guides you in identifying the type of service ID to enter for each of the product/circuit types.

Product/Circuit Type

Description

Data

Non-managed data services such as Private IP, Private Line, Frame Relay, and ATM. These services are identified by a circuit ID.  For example:  ABCD555121212, AB0A5512, 1WXYZ.ABC.0001.

IP Services

Internet Dedicated, IPVPN, Dial and DSL Internet, Fire wall Services, Secure Gateway, and X.25 Services. These services are identified by a site ID. For example: U12345, UUK123456, ABC551212, UIT123456, 12345, 56789, wcomw0F123987.

VoIP

Voice over IP service. A VoIP ticket should be created by using the telephone number (that experiences trouble) starting with the country code. For a US telephone number, the entry would include the preceding 1, such as 10055551212. For services around the world, enter the country code, city code, and number without inserting unnecessary zeroes.

Voice/ISDN

U.S.–based voice services that use a service ID, such as circuit ID for Dedicated Voice Services, Switched Long Distance, and Toll Free service.  These services are identified as follows:

  • U.S. Switched Long Distance and POTS service:  Use the 10-digit telephone number such as 7035551212

  • U.S. Toll Free service:  8xx5551212 (800, 877, 866)

  • U.S. Dedicated Voice Service:  Use a circuit ID that may use formats such as VABC55510001, W0F55512, IBB12340001, IDB12340001, 1HRVD.ABC.0008

International Services   

(non-US)

Used by non-US users who create tickets globally for products like Data, Direct Voice, Indirect Voice, Global Inbound Service, and IP Services. When reporting an issue for a telephone number, enter the country code, city code, and phone number without inserting unnecessary zeroes before the country and city codes. Direct Voice and Data services are represented by a Circuit ID that begins with W for example W0F98607. IP Services are often represented with a Site ID value beginning with the letter U, although it may sometimes begin with MCI, wcom or mwx.

Managed Services

Managed IP PBX, data services, and CPE that are managed by Verizon. Each device or circuit is given a device ID or DNS Entity Name for managing purposes. These tickets must be opened using the actual device ID as the Service ID. They follow a common format of 'companyreference' -dash- 'cityname' -dash- '6-digits' followed by E001, 002, 003, etc. depending on the number of devices at that location.  For example:  verizon-newyork-123456e001

Local Access Circuit

Designed services with Verizon that include the commonly used serial circuits, telephone number circuits, and LDPL circuits. Also includes less commonly identified message circuits, master circuits, IVC circuits for IPVPN access, SES to NNI circuits, and VoIP VPN circuits.  These services vary in format requirements, but using a forward slash (/) to separate components is preferred over other formats.  Each of these formats is identified in the Search function when selecting a product of Local Access Circuits.

E2E Master Circuit: /ABCD/000000555/121/212

Local Access CPE

Carrier Circuit and Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) services.  These services are identified by a 12-character value beginning with two letters or two letters and one number followed by several zeroes and another two-to-four digits.  For example: TA0000000555, CT3000000055

Other Services

Other services may be used by users who report an issue on a service that is non–standard. This opens a non-validated general ticket and typically requires a call back from a technician to obtain additional information.
