If you require assistance please log an IT service request through JCU Service Now or email ITHelpdesk@jcu.edu.au.
Warranty
Contact ictoffice@jcu.edu.au for advice if you are having problems with equipment that is not working properly and is still under warranty. Please ensure you have disabled the 'Find My Phone' feature before sending for repair.
Broken Screens
Unfortunately, if you drop your phone and the screen cracks it will void the warranty. You will need to arrange to have the repair done through a local repairer.
