COVID-19 - iCE.SelfCare

Overview

DWP Situation

The Situation

In these unprecedented times, more people than ever are isolated in their homes, causing Internet and WiFi access to be more critical than ever. Customers expect stable and reliable access to remotely run businesses, support customers, maintain business continuity, conduct remote education, entertain, and maintain connections with friends and family. It is a trying time for all, and internet access has become a necessity for many across the globe.

DWP Impact

The Impact

This scenario has created a unique and challenging situation for Service Providers (SP) as the Availability, Performance, and General Support about customer networks is being tested more than ever due to increased users/usage, unique in-home usage locations, and new usage scenarios to support business security. If you layer in the likelihood of reduced staffing associated with this situation, the problem only grows. This event is driving more call volume to SP Customer Care organizations than ever. Increased call volume has a domino effect for these organizations. It usually comes with extended Call Wait and Call Handle Times, which can cause frustration for customers in need of immediate support.
