Past event: Customer Experience Transformation for Utilities 2015 Conference

Translating a transformed customer experience into improved loyalty, competitiveness and direct alignment with the bottom line.

A recent report awarded utilities the lowest scores for customer experience across all sectors and markets.  In fact, it was a huge 13% lower that the all-sector average.  The report went on to show that Utilities were the only group where feedback indicated that the customer experience had actually worsened in the past 12 months!
