Half of customer service calls fail due to contact center background noise

London, UK; 26th September 2022: Almost half of customer service calls are abandoned due to contact center background noise, with 42% hanging up immediately when they detect the noise.

The results are compounded by the fact that while all respondents indicated they use voice channels in some way for their customer service inquiries, more than half (54%) said they only use it for critical issues — making voice a premium that is demonstrably failing to deliver.
