Call handling: RSL

RSL uses this page when supporting calls through the Retail Sales Support Line (1-888-310-8369). Retail Team members should review Issue resolution: In-Store before calling RSL to be sure RSL assistance is needed to resolve their issue.

Expectations

  • Retail Teams must refer to in-store processes & memo the account on any actions taken before contacting RSL.
  • RSL must review steps that have already been done for the customer and assist the Retail Team member. Refer to Magenta Pulse process/policy as needed.
  • Important: RSL may not be used as a bypass for an OTP under ANY circumstances. If Retail is asking to bypass a transaction that requires an OTP and the customer cannot receive one, they must be assisted In-Store unless otherwise noted. For more information on transactions that are OTP required that can be done in store, see One Time PINs.
  • If you’re unable to find an account that was previously canceled, see Archived Samson accounts
  • Retails Teams may need to call into RSL from their personal mobile devices or a store-in-store kiosk's (such as within Costco or Sam’s Club) dedicated company-use mobile device..
    • As long as the Retail Team member verifies the customer account (for existing account support) in their system with an ID scan or performed Step-Up OTP process and validates through the IVR menu with a token code, passcode, and active dealer code (pertaining to same person who verified the account), you can assist.
    • Example situations that cause a Retail Team member to call in from their personal device:
      • Store phone is unavailable
      • Retail Team member is supporting an outreach event

This is a list of common call reasons that do not need RSL and are owned by the Retail Team member in-store. If a Retail Team member calls for one of these issues, refer them to the appropriate policy page so they can resolve the customer issue. (Exception: Aside from ACE Denials, the other items below do not include Store-in-Store & D2C).
