The rules are tighter, and there is less room for error
Complaint volumes and regulatory scrutiny are climbing on both sides of the Atlantic, and sampling a fraction of calls no longer satisfies anyone.

Third-party collections
A flagged interaction surfaces in real-time before it becomes a complaint
A leading credit card issuer managed a high-volume third-party collections program for lower-balance accounts, where compliance, conduct, and customer experience were as important as collections performance. Traditional oversight approaches made it difficult to achieve consistent visibility across large volumes of customer interactions.
We implemented a more scalable and transparent operating model that combined digital engagement with enhanced quality and performance oversight. This gave leaders greater real-time visibility into operations, supported more consistent customer outcomes, and strengthened compliance across the program.
