BSBOPS505 Manage Organisational Customer Service
Assessment 2 – Project
Part A
Carefully read the following:
Last October, Ozhouse Clean signed up to a number of group buying website to increase the demand for its services. There has been a marked increase in customers, but there has also been a significantly increased number of complaints. The following complaints have been logged in the complaints register since signing up to the group buying web site as follows: • Three customers have recently called to redeem their voucher. Customer service officers have checked the vouchers and found that they are out of date. Customer service officers have therefore advised customers that as the vouchers are out of date, and they are no longer able to redeem them. Two of the customers have complained to the Department of Fair Trading that they are unable to redeem the services paid for. Note that the company’s refund policy on their web site does not refer to refunds in relation to vouchers. • Two customers have complained that they had to wait too long to redeem their vouchers for an introductory clean. This is because in signing up to group buying the demand for services resulted in delays. • A customer called to complain that they had called to book an introductory clean, but ware told that that the voucher only covered one free hour of cleaning and they would have to pay the full amount, requiring the customer to pay an additional $70. As Operations Manager, you have been asked to investigate and report on these complex complaints, as it appears that the company had not investigated these situations prior to signing up with the group buying web site. |
