Challenge at Hand

StarHub’s customer support was manual and archaic, dampening the operational performance, and overall frontline customer experience. Starhub wanted to expand support on messaging channels such as Facebook and WhatsApp.

• Inconsistent handling of issues led to longer wait times, customer dissatisfaction, and a high churn rate.

•  Moreover, agents had to toggle between multiple platforms to fetch information for customers.

•  Agents were also unable to share technical diagrams and photos with customers which affected agent productivity.
