Tracking appreciation on LIVE calls between customer and agent can be tricky, but it is possible. Technology today can monitor and track specific words and phrases, as well as emotions associated with what speakers are truly feeling. As a customer I can say THANK YOU sarcastically, I can say it with hesitation, or I can say it with genuine feeling of contentment. Truly capturing the words and emotions relating to the statement is a great opportunity and proof of best-in-class customer service.

Recently I stumbled across some of these phrases shared by businesses, that I think are pretty catchy:  “From the company ranked #1 in customer loyalty”, “Americas Most Convenient Bank®”. Personally, I feel these phrases lines are descriptive of both of the businesses using them and I’m confident these businesses try to secure confirmation of such when agents are speaking with customers.

As businesses continue to review opportunities to deal better with customer complaints and suggestions, they may also require agents to make a closing statement to customers such as, “…have I addressed all of your questions today?”, or “…did I provide you with quality customer service during your call today?” As customers, let’s be sure we comment honestly, and when appropriate, say THANK YOU!

describe the imageMiss a payment, maybe two and you may receive a call from your creditor. What if the only number you provided to your creditor at time of application was your cell phone number?

Most of, if not all, collection and predictive system companies are working on some sort of a program or application to identify and scrub for cell phone numbers to eliminate them from predictive and power dialing.  Penalties for using such are severe and enforced based upon recent TCPA rulings affecting creditor collection and bank account receivables businesses.
