If it is a partial outage or degradation of services, service platforms need to inform subscribers of the problems when they contact them. In FTTH, massive outages are typically: - cable breakage => OSS systems need to detect and proactively inform subscribers that the event was detected, and the expected return based on real data from the operator's history in that region; - events related to the IP network: alternative routes, remotely controlled sensors to detect and provide continuous testing, provide the information necessary for decision-making.

When faced with a telecom outage, how you communicate is crucial for managing customer frustration. Here’s what has worked well for me: 1: Be Honest and Prompt: Quickly inform customers about the outage. Transparency helps build trust. 2: Provide Regular Updates: Keep customers in the loop with frequent updates, even if progress is slow. This reassures them that the issue is being addressed. 3: Offer Compensation When Needed: For significant disruptions, small credits or discounts can help maintain goodwill. Effective crisis management is about transparency, empathy, and timely action. How do you handle customer communication during outages? Share your thoughts!
