voice of the customer multiple times

Customers would leave messages at end of calls about there service and experience with the agent scoring them and telling us why they gave that score . All stated that they felt understood and the compassion behind the agencies voice that they wanted to help. Some wanted to leave  or disconnect but after being giving time and assistance they stayed and was very happy with the fact someone was willing to assist them how to work their product and how to understand  what it does. Some would just be happy to have a small conversation just to be heard by an agent and giving just a few minutes of there time. There hearts melted and that's why I loved that I was able to do that for them every time for as long as I did.
