WOW Internet's main customer service number is 1-844-WOW-HELP (1-844-969-4357)

That number connects you to WOW's general support line, where you can report outages, ask about billing, change your service, or troubleshoot connection problems. Wait times vary by time of day and how many people are calling, but you typically reach someone within a few minutes during business hours.

WOW operates in parts of the Midwest, South, and Mid-Atlantic — mainly Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, Florida, and Alabama. If you have WOW service, this is the number to save. If you're considering WOW and want to know about availability or pricing in your area, you can also use this number to reach sales.

Key Takeaways

  • WOW's main customer service line is 1-844-969-4357, and it handles billing, outages, technical support, and service changes.

What to have ready before you call

Before dialing, gather your account number (on your bill or in the WOW app), your service address, and the phone number associated with your account. If you're calling about an outage, also note what time it started and which services are down — internet, phone, TV, or all three.

If you're troubleshooting a connection problem, have your modem and router in front of you so you can check lights, restart them if asked, or read error codes to the representative. For billing disputes, have your recent bill available so you can reference specific charges.

Other ways to contact WOW besides calling

WOW offers a live chat feature on their website at wowway.com. Chat is often faster than the phone line during peak hours and leaves a written record of what was discussed. You can also submit questions through the WOW mobile app or email support through the website.

For account issues that don't need when ready help — like updating your address, changing your password, or viewing your bill — the WOW app and website let you handle those yourself without waiting on hold. The app also shows real-time outage maps so you can see if an outage is affecting your area before you call.

What to do if you're experiencing an outage

First, check the WOW outage map on their website or app to confirm the outage is affecting your address, not just your equipment. If the map shows an outage in your area, WOW already knows about it and is working on it — you don't need to call unless you want a time estimate.

If the map shows no outage but you have no service, restart your modem and router by unplugging them for 30 seconds, then plugging them back in. Wait three to five minutes for them to fully boot up. If service returns, you're done. If not, then call 1-844-969-4357 and have your service address ready.

Billing and account changes

You can change your service plan, pause service, or add features through the WOW app or website without calling. If you want to discuss your bill, ask about discounts, or dispute a charge, calling is usually faster than email because a representative can look at your account in real time and explain charges when ready.

WOW sometimes offers promotional rates for new customers or existing customers who call to ask about retention offers. If you're thinking about switching providers, mentioning that to customer service can sometimes open the door to a lower rate, though this is not may provide.

Porting your phone number if you're leaving WOW

If you have WOW phone service and want to keep your phone number when you switch to another provider, you'll need your account number and the last four digits of the Social Security number associated with the account. Call 1-844-969-4357 and ask for the phone number porting department, or request a Letter of Authorization (LOA) that you can give to your new provider.

Your new provider will handle most of the porting process, but WOW needs to confirm you own the number before releasing it. This usually takes a few business days. Start the process before you cancel your WOW service so there's no gap in phone service.
