Escalation Matrix Audit for Customer Complaints
Check who handles what and how quickly complaints move up.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it.
Audit my escalation matrix. The current levels, owners, triggers and time limits: [CURRENT_MATRIX]. Examples of complaints that got stuck or bounced between people: [STUCK_EXAMPLES]. My team size and hours: [TEAM_AND_HOURS]. Check that every level has a named owner, a trigger (amount, repeat contact, safety, public post, regulator mention), a time limit, and a way to hand over with the history. Make a table with Level, Owner, Trigger, Time limit, Gap, and Fix. Identify loops, missing coverage for holidays or absences, and cases that need a fast track (safety, vulnerable customers, large amounts). Provide a one-page matrix and a hand-over template. Add three test scenarios and show how each moves through the matrix, with the time at each step. Keep it simple enough for a small team and mark any regulatory timing duties as [VERIFY]. Do not give me legal advice. Name no rule I did not supply. Use [JURISDICTION] and [RELEVANT_LAW_OR_POLICY_IF_KNOWN] as given. Flag where I need expert help. Threaten nothing beyond lawful steps.
