Contact Us

At Windstream Wholesale, we know the performance of our network is critical to the success of your business and customers. Our goal is to ensure we are providing you with meaningful and timely communications.

Please note that while things may look different here due to changes in our contact methods, the quality and timeliness of our response remain unchanged. The process you are familiar with continues to be in place. These changes are designed to take the work and management off your shoulders, leveraging technology to efficiently route and assign your requests.

To Engage Us for Support or Updates:
For technical support and updates, please contact our 24/7 support team. You can reach us via the iConnect portal or by calling 884-946-2662. Our Service Assurance Team is dedicated to assisting you with any inquiries you may have.

Escalation Process:
At times, you may need to add urgency to your case. We have an escalation process in place for such situations. If additional support is needed, our Escalation Team is available to assist. Please have your ticket number ready when calling 888-865-1830. Our IVR system will ensure the appropriate level of support is engaged on your behalf.

Escalation Expectations:

• First Escalation: Allow 1 hour for out-of-service issues and 2 hours for non-service-impacting issues prior to initiating an escalation.
• Consecutive Escalations: Additional levels of escalation will be accepted every hour following the initial escalation.
• Escalation Follow-Up: Our team will acknowledge your request within 1 hour of receipt.
• For Network Outage Events: If your escalation is linked to a network outage event, you will receive updates aligned with our network outage communication protocol. This includes timely updates on the status of the outage and expected resolution times.

Internal Escalation Matrix:
For transparency, here is how our internal escalation process is structured, with oversight starting at Level Two:

• Level One: Repair Team
• Level Two: Escalation Desk (Escalation Team Oversight Begins)
• Level Three: Escalation Lead
• Level Four: Escalation Manager
• Level Five: Escalation Director
• Level Six: Senior Escalation Director

This structured approach ensures that your issues are escalated through appropriate channels, ensuring timely and efficient resolution, with dedicated oversight from our escalation team starting at Level Two.

Email Communication:
While email remains an option for contacting the Escalation Team, please be aware that response times may vary. We recommend using phone or the iConnect portal for more immediate support needs, as we are phasing out email communication to streamline our processes.
