their own local office in Fort Worth, Texas. This project is just a third party
project with GC Services. The main goals that customer service all want is to
satisfy the customers. The way we tend to show that we care for the
them so that way they can help out the customer. When we speak on the
phone with the customer we speak to them in a high beat tone and show
them respect even though they call in upset and take it out on us. One thing
things just do not go well for both the customer and the agent. So the
awesome customer service and be able to make payments for the customers
payments they have left on the lease, when is the due date, if there is some
flaws on the account as in the name or social security number or the federal
assist with advising the customer how much it would cost to purchase their
vehicle or how much it would cost to satisfy the lease. Other things we
provide as in information is when the title has been released and where it
was sent out. The only department I am speaking about is customer service
can get better ratings and feedback from assisting the customers. There is
this one specific email we send out at the end of the phone call after we are
done talking. It provides more than one question and they rate us and how
they felt with the services. It is called CFI. This is the main important rating
within the call center because this rate overall rates Mercedes Benz
Financial-Services, at some point our main goal was 76%, but we were not
actually met the goal 76% and after that December we reached to 77% then
for January they wanted us to meet at 78%, but we did not meet the
I spoke with one of my Team Leaders here at work the other day and
that to retain good customer service and to put ourselves in the customers
if we did not do this it would not retain good customer service. We would lose
the team and exhibit the expectations that Mercedes has for us. He
approaches his team in a realistic aspect for the team to understand the
customers. So agents are the ones who speak with the customers and notate
the accounts about what happened in the call or we put in the case to satisfy
the request the customer is asking for. What a case is varies it can be about
further into an account or to apply something towards the account. The ones
who complete the workgroups go by the name of ART. No agent can get in
contact with them only our team leaders can. Since there are tons of cases
that are created by the customers which we call requests to the customers
we adv a time frame of 24-48 hours that they will get reached to and will get
talking about other departments with the customers, we dont call then by
the department name instead to say colleagues. The reason for that is to
make us feel closer rather than separated. I understand why QA would like us
to say that on the phones because I once had a caller who felt like he was
calling in the wrong place. Another thing I did not mention is when we speak
about ART, we do not call them that on the phones we just say our
colleagues in the backroom and most people want to speak with them, but
we tell the customers that they do not take calls. Theres other departments
who do not take calls like titles, transfers, LAP, and thats about it.
The reasons why we have teams and team leaders is because that
way everyone is instructed on the rules and get updates on whats going to
happen with Mercedes Benz. Every week our team leader will call us each
one by one and will give us feedback. When it comes to receiving feedback it
varies from positive to negative. When the feedback is negative we will listen
to the call and hear where they were errors of opportunity. When we use that
or knowing that the customer did not understand what you are trying to say
but do not make an effort in for them to understand. Another thing that could
relate with that term is when we dont take ownership in the situation. We
get feedback on our score card for the month. That will state our absences,
CFI, end of call survey, and QA. Also one day out of the week we will get
together with our team and discuss about our performance as a team.
Customer service means that even though they may be wrong they are
always right. People who work in customer service have too stand by that
each other and that is everyday language. We dont speak in such a high
sophisticated matter. Most customers on the phone do not even speak that
way either. For a high luxury car company most people from different states
on one side then another project they go by the name of EZ-Cater. Well
theyre about over 100 agents that work for Mercedes Benz Financial-
Services. At first no one knows the material and we go through training for
two weeks but this job is more like a hands on job. Once you get the hang of
how to use the tools and the material its very simple except when they have
a reliable agent.
