When consumers are looking for immediate support, the first action they typically take is to reach out to a call centre. Yet one of the biggest pain points that consumers still experience regularly is the frustration associated with call centre identity verification and their inability to meet expectations regarding wait times and resolve issues during the first call.
For organizations, one of the key challenges call centre representatives need to navigate is the inherent difficulty in call centre identity verification to ensure it’s your real customer on the other end of the line. There are inherent flaws in the cell centre identity verification system that call centres use today, resulting in issues such as:
Long wait times to reach a representative
The use of knowledge-based questions that can be compromised or difficult for ‘real’ users to answer
Further wait times as customer service representatives review the user’s file and history
Calls abandoned by the user or inability of the system to control call volume
Call centres are facing a double-edged sword: how to reduce the possibility of the call centre becoming a channel for digital identity fraud, while at the same time improving the customer experience and maintaining process integrity.
