Dear [Employee's Name], I hope this email finds you well. I wanted to follow up regarding a recent complaint we received from a customer and delegate actions for resolution. Please note that this is a general sample letter for directive — delegate follow-up on a complaint from a customer and can be customized as per the specific situation. Firstly, let us address the nature of the complaint. [Briefly describe the complaint in a neutral tone, summarizing the main issues highlighted by the customer.] It is crucial that we take this complaint seriously and ensure that it is resolved promptly and effectively to maintain our customer's satisfaction. To address this issue, I have taken the liberty to delegate specific tasks to relevant team members for a coordinated resolution. Please note the following actions to be taken: 1. Investigation and fact-finding: Assign an appropriate individual to thoroughly investigate the customer's complaint and understand the full context. It is important to gather all the necessary information and evidence to provide a comprehensive response to the customer. 2. Communication with the customer: Designate a representative from our customer service department to reach out to the complainant, acknowledging their concerns and assuring them that we are working diligently to resolve the issue. Provide them with a timeframe for resolution, if possible, to manage their expectations. 3. Review of company policies and procedures: Request the compliance department to evaluate the relevant policies and procedures related to the complaint. If necessary, suggest updates or improvements to prevent similar issues in the future. 4. Collaboration between departments: Encourage cross-functional collaboration by involving the departments responsible for the parts of the complaint. This could include engaging the sales, operations, or technical teams, as applicable. Collaboration can provide valuable insights and expedite the resolution process. 5. Resolution plan: Based on the investigation and departmental collaboration, develop a detailed plan of action to address the customer's concerns. This plan should include specific steps, responsible individuals, and target completion dates. 6. Prevention of future incidents: In addition to resolving the current complaint, propose preventive measures to mitigate the chances of similar complaints arising in the future. This could involve staff training, process improvements, or any other relevant actions that may enhance our overall customer experience. I expect regular updates on the progress of this complaint resolution effort. Please provide me with a weekly report summarizing the status of each assigned task, concerns, or any further actions required. It is essential to keep the lines of communication open to address any challenges that may arise during this process.
