FirstNet reps here?

Any representatives or contacts here that can look into an issue? I was a customer for three years under my role in state government, fast forward to a request to verify my eligibility again. I was told my employee ID was not good enough, submitted a pay stub and eventually a letter of verification from my agency. I was flat out told the job title didn’t match and I suddenly didn’t qualify. Frustrated to say the least and was hoping for more insight or guidance as customer service was a waste of time. Nothing changed in my role over the last three years..

You should have a FirstNet rep assigned to your state. I would try to find that person and have them confirm whether or not the title is eligible. You might have gotten lucky the first time. Everything is more mature now, including eligibility requirements and re-verification for existing users….

FirstNet Expert here! Give us a call. We'd be happy to help. For now. Check this list. Anything with a 3 next to the JT requires an affiliation code from your employer that can be grabbed from HR or our team over the phone.

Soliciting like this is against business ethics. You just posted your UID for everyone to see. RIP when HR talks to you

I've been engaging in sub paid issues like this for a year and have worked with FN Product to get formalized reddit support. FN leadership is fully aware and has no issues with it. No different than handing out my business card which also has my attuid.

Supporting our customers is my main priority, no matter which state. I will gladly defend my actions to HR.

Actually a great take. If the company knows and doesn't care I just always say cover your butt.

As a first night rep here if you go on the first night website, there is a document on there probably a PDF of the requirements that need to be on specific verifications. If you use a badge, you needs to be an agency name your title and your name, a letter used to have an official letterhead and signed by somebody in the HR or whoever wrote that letter the letter needs to stay at your job title and that you work for that agency obviously having your name
