What is a Help Ticket
A help ticket is used by SpeakWrite Help Desk staff to provide you with assistance when performing Independent Contractor duties for SpeakWrite. There are two types of Help Tickets:
Job Related
Non-Job Related
If you cannot access Help Tickets for any reason from your typist page, you are to email

If your Internet access has gone down or you are away from a computer, the Help Desk can be reached at 1-800-828-3889. This is only to be used in situations where creating a Help Ticket is not feasible. This line is also our client help line, and we try to keep that line available for client support as well.

If the Help Desk is closed and it is a basic question you can come back to or something you can work around, please continue to work on the job as much as possible, until the Help Desk can provide you with an answer the next day. If this is something that you must have answered before you can complete or submit the job, then please stop working on the job and wait for the Help Desk's reply the next day.
