Is customer service getting better or worse? Despite the conventional wisdom of customer "no- service" as the norm, over 61 percent of consumers see call centers as doing a better job than three years ago. An international survey of more than 4,300 consumers found that, despite some continued pockets of frustration, 23 percent of all consumers found their experience "significantly better," and an additional 38 percent felt it was "somewhat better" while only 12 percent thought it was worse.
