Your market is always changing, making it critical that you adapt while remaining strong and flexible. At Alliance Data, we do much more than calculate utility bills for you. We develop total outsourced CIS solutions, including guaranteed service level agreements. Our solutions dramatically lower your upfront expenses, while dramatically speeding your implementation timeframe.

We give you the flexibility to quickly and cost-effectively respond.

Statement Processing
Your statement should be more than just a bill - it should provide opportunities to cross-sell, send promotions and enjoy savings by having to print fewer inserts. After all, it's your primary method of communication with your customers. With our enhanced statement processing you can personalize messages on every bill, reaching more customers, more effectively.

Customer Contact Services
Free your mind from worries, knowing that your customers are well cared for. We recognize that customers vary in the ways they choose to interact with your company. So we provide as many choices as possible - from live Customer Service Representatives (CSRs), to online help and interactive voice response. Alliance Data offers exceptional customer care. 24 hours a day. 7 days a week. Our CSRs have the experience and knowledge needed to handle all types of billing, account and service inquiries.

Proactive Customer Communications
Proactive customer care increases contact rates and frees CSRs to focus on your most valuable and profitable customers. It reduces the volume of inbound calls and trims hold time and call abandonment rates. And it allows you to send customers personalized messages targeted to their account status and profile, delivered via phone, e-mail or page.

Quality Assurance
Deliver the highest quality care to your customers. We'll partner with you to develop a customer service program that mirrors your policies, procedures and business philosophy through dedicated CSRs who embrace your company's mission. Online reporting includes a full suite of customer care, billing, quality, collections, operational and contractual performance metrics and tools. Once associates are trained and on the job, we provide state-of-the-art tools to help them provide the quality care you expect.
