101!onetooneglobal.com | @OnetoOneGlobal #socialcustomer!
AOL!
What went wrong?!• Long waiting time (15 min)!• Poor call handling!
– No authentication!– Wrong tone!– Poor retention!
102!onetooneglobal.com | @OnetoOneGlobal #socialcustomer!
How could it be improved?!• Review IVR system, call waiting options and

– Review employee assessment program!– Donʼt reward non-compliant employee
performances!
American Airlines!
• United Airlines staff were seen throwing luggage in the hold!
• Dave Carrollʼs guitar was broken in the process!
• This is the story of his 9 month struggle to gain compensation for the damage done to his guitar...!
103!onetooneglobal.com | @OnetoOneGlobal #socialcustomer!
How a Strategy Will Help?!
104!
What went wrong?!• No action from in-flight crew when incident
occurred!• Airline companies pointing fingers at each
other (Air Canada and United Airlines)!• Airline offices also pointing fingers
(Halifax, Omaha, Chicago)!• Customer information/history not available
to all departments from both airlines!• Poor compensation ($1200 of flight
vouchers)!• 9 month struggle!!!!
How could it be improved?!• Centralised customer service!• Centralised data management!• Clear policies with regards to damaged goods!• Internal training on customer handling process
(including escalation) !• Allow/encourage employees to follow up with
customers on case-by-case basis!
