  17. Hello TP,
    4. I would greet the customer in a polite way. then I would accept fault and explain why I did it in wrong way and give my apology, Because all customers need a explain about mistake in any service they buy, For example:
    "Agent-Good morning... How are you today?
    -Customer: I have a problem with my reservation you did!.
    -Agent:Yes, Sir. You're right, I did it in wrong way, because I wrote down badly the information you gave me, I'm so sorry for the mistake I did, right now I'm going to resolve it. I am sorry again I will improve The customer service that I provide to assist you in a better way",
    7. Well if the customer asks me for a discount when it's not possible to give then one, in this example the customer wants a discount
    With NFL Max and I would say to Customer: I completely agree with you Sir. about cost, just let me explain you about service:
    -This service has excellent quality and benefits, such as: you can enjoy the programs with a better resolution and has exclusive channels that if you choose to get them individually the price would be higher, they need to know all service's benefits and why own service is the best.
    12. When The customer contact us by mistake, I would say: Good morning, thank you for calling To TP, My Name is Alexandra, Who do I have the pleasure of speaking with?
    -Customer: Good morning, John speaking, Am I speaking to the airport of El Salvador?
    -Agent: No, you are speaking with Teleperfomance,  I'm Sorry Sir., you have contacted us by mistake, Is there something I can help you?
    -Customer: No, Thanks.
    -Agent: Thanks for calling, having a wonderful day!.
    19. And when the customer is using a abusive language against me, I would reply:
    -Agent: I understand sir, I'm sorry for mistake let me check the inconvenience, May you offer me a moment on hold, please?

  18. 6) What would you tell a costumer who is requesting a refund?
    Listen to the reason, apologize, then tell that I can not give to refund but I have a good promotion for you. I can do a discount or ask to the supervisor if I can give another promotion, but I have to show that I am doing all possible to help because we value their preference.

    9) What is the best way to respond to a customer when they are asking for a product or feature you do not currently have?
    Let me tell you that currently we do not have it, but I can give you different similar options with better services. And explain what it is and the kind of things that they can enjoy.

    13) What would you say to a customer who forgot their password?
     No problem, we'll be happy to solve it and you continue enjoying your service. I need you to please tell me your name and something that can support your identity. You have something related with your password where we can send to you a security code, let me know when you got it to establish a new password.

    15) What is the best way to tell a customer their account is overdue or expired.

    Hello, this is Marcela, let me tell you that your account is overdue, we want you to continue enjoying our services so you can renovate and receive our special package for the same price because we value your loyalty and preference, do you agree?
