DPD

Reducing Inbound Volume with Smarter Web Self-Service
DPD Netherlands, one of the leading parcel delivery providers in the country, was facing increasing pressure on its customer service teams.

A large portion of daily contacts consisted of routine questions from parcel tracking to return processes that could easily be handled without human intervention.

To address this challenge, DPD implemented Polly.Help as a multilingual self-service platform, enabling customers to find the right answers quickly and independently. The result? Fewer incoming contacts, improved customer satisfaction, and a more scalable service model.
