Contact Centers • - Contact Points • Operator owned and run flagship stores • Franchised stores • Retailers • Contact Methods: Voice, IVR, Live Chat, SMS, email, Facebook • Contact Points differ in how they handle star customers (high value, AoN, importance) • Operators have a unified view of the customer through their CRM system. • Charge calls to call centre • - To reduce nuisance calls(BTRC wanted to offer it FOC, but the call centre calls increased from 2000-26000 calls per day).
Win-back • Most operators in BD and IN are reactive they don’t predict before a customer leaves, but have campaigns to get customers to connect. • In case of prepaid they send SMS to customers whose connections are about to expire • In LK one MNO has a specialized unit for customer win back. In the event of voluntary disconnections customers are contacted and active efforts are made to resolve issues (e.g. waiving off some charges to ensure the customer remains on the network).
