'The key will not go in or turn at all' points to a worn cylinder or a key problem. 'The key turns but the car will not start' often points to a transponder or immobilizer issue. Naming the symptom in plain terms helps point to the right fix before anyone arrives.
Vehicle year, make, and model, whether you have any working key, and proof of ownership. Ignition work sometimes needs the car where it sits, so mention the location and any access restrictions.
