Supporting one of the UK’s largest energy providers to clear a significant complaints backlog post acquisition
SCENARIO:

Within two weeks, we deployed a team of complaints experts and operational management with the skills and understanding to resolve complaints.

We cleared the backlog well within the client’s 12 week timeframe demonstrating significant resource costs saving.

Due to the success of our delivery, and the surplus budget resulting from early completion, we provided complaint handling support to other areas of the business to help reduce additional backlogs, preventing cases going to the Ombudsman.
