During the BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 pandemic, the demand for IT support has increased dramatically across the University. We have seen a shift in the way our staff and students want to interact with us, with the number of email requests received outnumbering phone calls for the first time. On average,?ServiceLine?is now receiving 145 phone calls and 190 email requests per day.

Providing consistent and timely support to staff and students remains one of our top priorities. Therefore, to better manage the volume of both support calls and email requests and to protect our Service Desk Agents’ wellbeing, we will be reducing our ServiceLine phone hours to allow us more time to focus on the increased number of email requests.

Beginning 8 February 2021, the?ServiceLine?phone service will be open from?09:00 – 17:00?Monday – Friday, each day the University is open, until further notice.

We?apologise?for any inconvenience that this may cause?you, and?thank you for your support and understanding.
