How the LPG Emergency Helpline Number '1906' ‘works?

If you are wondering how the LPG emergency helpline system works, you can refer to the steps below to get an idea of the workflow:

A call made to 1906 reaches a call center in Noida, depending on the query:

• The representative provides basic troubleshooting tips
• A ticket number and turn around time
• Caller receives an SMS with contact number of the mechanic
• The representative contacts the mechanic through an SMS and telephonic call

When the query is in progress, follow-ups will be made at different stages to ensure the caller is satisfied with a quality resolution. Once the issue is resolved, the mechanic or the caller can confirm the closure of the complaint. The caller will be notified about the closure of the complaint via an SMS.

If the mechanic doesn’t respond, the representative will follow an escalation hierarchy to ensure actions are taken to resolve the complaint.
