Top 5 Bad Call Center Practices:
Not all call centers are created equal! Many answering services are more interested in getting your money than providing your clients with customer service. Here is a short list of things to look out for while you’re shopping for a new answering service or call center:
- Billing a full minute for calls that do not last 45 – 60 seconds
- Charging higher rates for weekends and holidays
- Charging for calls that land in a hold queue because they weren’t answered by a live agent
- Not providing full transparency including un-screened access to call recordings
- Not offering 24/7/365 live support and account updating
Remember, an answering service represents your business to your existing and potential clients.
