Verizon Math

| | Comments (0)
Ran across this video at EyelessWriter.com. The individual doing the survey called Verizon 56 times with two question regarding rates. 93% of the operators quoted an incorrect rate.


My interpretation is that the issue is most likely due to ambiguous documentation since most representatives did not seem to know whether they were dealing with cents, dollars, wholes or fractions.

If you are responsible for your company's contact centre, for the sake of your customers and your company, step away from your statistical performance reports once in a while and call your own centre anonymously. Call often, at different times of the day, during peak hours, with unusual problems and inquiries. I am sure that many of you will be shocked at what you discover!
