System Impacted: Expert Assist 
Channels Impacted: Care, Virtual Retail

Description:
Some Experts may experience an issue where customer information does not display or displays the incorrect account information after toggling from Expert Assist (EA) to Atlas. This may occur when an MSISDN has been on multiple accounts (Prepaid, Postpaid, etc). 

Workaround:
If this occurs, navigate fully to Atlas and perform a new search for the customer’s Postpaid account. Or, work with your manager to provide a Verification token. The customer information should then populate correctly.

Start Date: 03/05/2026

Description: When Digital (TMOID) verification is not recognized on an account, the Account Summary and Billing cards at the bottom of Expert Assist display “N/A.”

In these scenarios, the system automatically pulls up and loads Atlas

Issue: The Account Summary and Billing cards do not populate when the system cannot recognize a customer’s Digital (TMOID) profile.

This commonly occurs in the following scenarios:

  • RSL and HSI calls
    The system cannot recognize the customer’s digital profile.
  • Samson Profiles (Customer Not Listed selection)
    Experts verify the account using “Customer Not Listed,” as these are Samson Profiles and not Digital Profiles.
  • OTP Sent to a Line Without a Digital Profile
    If the OTP is sent to a different line on the account that does not have a Digital Profile associated, Digital (TMOID) verification is not recognized and the cards display “N/A.”
  • Leaders bypassing into the account without selecting a line first
    Bypassing before selecting a line prevents proper card population.

Workaround:

  • RSL and HSI Calls:
    Utilize Atlas to obtain account and billing information.
  • Samson Profiles / Customer Not Listed:
    Verify using the Digital profile when available. If “Customer Not Listed” must be selected, utilize Atlas to obtain account information.
  • OTP Sent to Non-Digital Line:
    Ensure the OTP is sent to and verified on a line with an active Digital Profile. If not possible, utilize Atlas to obtain account information.
  • Leader Bypass Scenario:
    Select a line first, then proceed with bypass.
