Verizon Wins Dutch National Contact Center Award for Innovative Approach to Online Customer Service
Verizon has been recognised for its innovative approach to online customer service at the 2011 Dutch National Contact Center Awards ceremony.
Verizon won the Online Customer Service award in recognition of the capabilities and functionality of the company's innovative online customer care solution, the Verizon Enterprise Center. Verizon was also a finalist in the Customer Experience category.
The NCCA Awards highlight and reward best practice in the Dutch contact center industry. Verizon's Amsterdam-based technical service center team underwent a rigorous three-month pre-selection process before being named as one of only 17 contenders shortlisted for the six award categories.
The Verizon Enterprise Center enables business customers to securely check online the status of their orders, review and pay bills, request new services, and monitor their network service performance. Customers can also select to receive their bill in an environmentally-friendly paperless format. The Verizon Enterprise Center is available round-the-clock in 11 languages - English, Chinese (Mandarin and Simplified Chinese), Dutch, French, German, Italian, Korean, Spanish, Swedish, Portuguese and Japanese - enabling business customers worldwide to securely conduct day-to-day business with Verizon remotely. Verizon customers also have access to the Verizon Enterprise Center Mobile service, which enables them to receive and access information in near-real time on a mobile device.
Fedor Hoevenaars, country leader for Verizon in the Netherlands, said: "This is a further endorsement of our continued efforts to deliver online service tools that make it easier for customers to do business with Verizon while helping them do business better overall.
Our combination of high-tech and human touch support puts customers in flexible control of how they manage our services, and continues to set us apart from the competition."
