Customer case study

A large housing association in the West of England wanted to encourage the tenants it serviced to call in with any problems that they noticed with the property in which they were staying. The housing association has found through research that large repair bills could be avoided if it’s tenants called in the problem before any major damage had occurred. 08numbers supplied the housing association with a 0800  “freephone” number which encouraged the tenants, who were on a low income, to call into the office to report problems. The implementation of this number meant that over the following 2 quarters since the numbers was introduced, the housing association measured an increase in the number of reported minor issues but a drop in the number of reported major issues, making the helpline number a success.
