How I Work on Support Tickets

1. Confirm the issue

I start by understanding the problem properly before touching anything. I ask clear questions like: what exactly is not working, when it started, what the user was doing when it happened, and whether anything changed recently (new password, update, new device, new app). I also confirm the impact, for example “one user vs many users”, and what the user needs urgently so I can prioritise correctly. If there’s an error message, I capture the exact wording or a screenshot.

2. Quick checks first

Before going deep, I run quick checks that solve a lot of issues fast. I confirm the basics: internet connection, VPN status, correct account sign-in, time/date on the device, and whether the user has the right permissions/access. I restart the affected app or service properly (not just closing the window), and I check for stuck updates or simple settings that might block access (like “Work Offline” in Outlook). These steps often restore service quickly and reduce downtime.

3. Isolate the cause

If it’s still not fixed, I narrow it down methodically. I test with another browser, another network, another user account, or another device when possible. This helps me confirm whether it’s a device issue, an account/access issue, or a wider service problem.

4. Fix and validate

Once I apply a fix, I verify it properly. I don’t stop at “it should work now”. I test the exact thing the user needs: sign-in works, emails sync, files upload, printer produces a test page, or Teams meetings load. I confirm with the user and make sure they’re unblocked.

5. Document and prevent repeats

I write clean ticket notes: symptoms, checks performed, steps taken, and the final outcome. If it’s a common issue, I turn the fix into a short knowledge base guide or checklist so it can be solved faster next time.
