Is this sentence grammatically correct?

It is very difficult to communicate through mail and voice call if I am not at my desk, so please arrange to replace the defective cell phone at the earliest

It is OK apart from the missing full stop. "at the earliest" is a bit jargony. Probably I would say "as soon as possible".
