Can’t join your online class? Video calls freezing? WiFi acting up? The NPower Community Help Desk is here to support you.
We know how frustrating tech problems can be, especially when customer service puts you on hold or gives you steps that don’t make sense. That’s why we created something better: a team of professionally trained Digital Navigators dedicated to walking you through every step.
Our experts have helped thousands of people across communities facing the digital divide. We don’t use confusing jargon or rush you off the phone. Instead, we take the time to understand your problem and guide you through the solution until everything works the way it should.
Whether you’re a student trying to attend class, a parent helping your kids get online, or anyone dealing with a tech challenge, we’re here for you. Real people. Real expertise. Real solutions.
