Everything Everywhere is investing £50 million to transform customer service for its 27 million T-Mobile and Orange UK users. It’s going to redesign its service operations around handset operating systems and the devices that use them. Overall, £50 million will be invested in contact centres, high-street stores and customer-facing staff this year.
The company says this new approach is designed to meet customers’ changing needs, enabling Orange and T-Mobile staff to offer advice about devices, technology and account information without having to transfer customers between departments.
