ABSTRACT

Companies sometimes think that they are doing well without paying attention to their customers are complain, only to discover later on that customers were dissatisfied and haven’t returned. It is better to encourage them to complain even about the petty things, than to wait until things become really bad. Often the complaints simply arise because the customer doesn’t feel he has been “treated right”. It may be astonishing to note that: the reason why large percentage of customers change suppliers may have less or nothing to do with the quality of the product or service. It was because customers feel “the company did not seem to care and did not communicate with them. They feel they were being taken for granted”. The first thing the complaint is looking for is a sympathetic ear.

Handling complaints is probably the most common form of customer care problem and there is a standard procedure for dealing with it. May customers see the way an organization handles the complaint as the test of commitment to the things being practiced and preached about customer care.
