Investigating

We are currently investigating reports of degraded call quality affecting some customers, intermittently. The following behaviors have been reported beginning around 12:00 PM ET:

- Delays (up to 25+ seconds) between a call connecting and the interaction appearing in the agent interface
- Dead air on inbound calls prior to ringing and after agent answer
- Calls populating in queue but experiencing delays before being assigned to an agent
- Absence of hold music for callers waiting in queue
- Inability to place calls on hold

Our team is actively investigating the cause. We will provide an update as soon as additional information is available.
