Information related to a service, provided to the user device over a telecommunication network, is received. The service may be providing connectivity required for a voice call, a data session, short message service (SMS) or the like. Information related to at least a network element of the telecommunication network is collected, the network element having supplied the service. A telecommunication network topology for the service is determined related to the information. A failure notification is received through the telecommunication network.
