The pandemic caused by COVID-19 generated great uncertainty in all aspects. One of the industries that receive the most calls and questions of costumer service is the financial sector. In Mexico, two of the main banks were serving their clients with around 1200 stations. With an average wait of 2 minutes to enter the IVR, more than 6 minutes to be attended by an executive. Additional 6 minutes were required to solve simple queries, such as a balance inquiry or the minimum credit card payment. In total, there are 14 minutes of waiting to solve a doubt that with other solutions takes 1 minute.
At the same time, when customers wanted to obtain documents such as the account statement, they had to wait 20 days to receive it. Sometimes they had to download another application to solve a quick query. In addition, another great opportunity to automate the service channels is that executives cannot serve digital channels for security.
These banks, concerned about user satisfaction and empathizing with the situation. So they decided to implement a transactional chatbot on WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook Messenger, and within their websites.
