How to Join the Virtual Line

Join a virtual line from anywhere using a text enabled mobile phone, the QLess app or the internet. How it works:

  1. Join a virtual line from anywhere.
  2. Wait wherever you want.
  3. Receive wait time updates by text.
  4. Get notified when it's your turn to be served.

The system will provide you with text updates to notify you of your position in the line; you only need to be in the office when it is time to meet with an Advisor or Representative.
