V2 Grader Summary

The agent correctly identified the device as out-of-warranty and offered valid options, including self-help and paid support, but failed to resolve the core issue of the TV not connecting to Wi-Fi. While technically accurate and non-deflective, the interaction lacked empathy, clear next steps, and active troubleshooting, resulting in an unresolved outcome.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to connect TV to Wi-Fi; forgot Wi-Fi password. Serial: 14X10607402645. Device out of warranty. Agent offered $15 paid support and self-help options: check password on another device, log into router via Ethernet, or reset router. Incorrectly stated current router is incompatible with Spectrum’s Wi-Fi 7 modem. Customer opted to purchase a new router.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Advised checking Wi-Fi password on another connected device.
  • Suggested logging into the router’s web interface via Ethernet to view or change the password.
  • Offered a full router reset and re-setup as a last resort.
Key Observations
  • Agent failed to collect the product model number, which is a required protocol step for any product-specific guidance.
  • Provided technically inaccurate information: claimed Wi-Fi 5 router is incompatible with Spectrum's Wi-Fi 7 modem, which is false—ISP modems typically operate in bridge mode, and router Wi-Fi generation does not affect WAN compatibility.
  • Did not attempt any troubleshooting or confirm if the customer could access the router UI or another connected device.
  • Minimal empathy; customer’s frustration was not acknowledged.
  • Prematurely suggested purchasing a new router without confirming the existing device was recoverable.
Positive Highlights
  • Correctly identified the device as out of warranty and explained the paid-support policy.
  • Offered valid high-level self-help methods for retrieving or resetting the Wi-Fi password.
  • Maintained a polite tone throughout the call.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Failed to collect the product model number before discussing support options or making technical claims.
  • Provided factually incorrect technical advice: claimed the customer’s Wi-Fi 5 router is incompatible with Spectrum’s Wi-Fi 7 modem, which is not supported by KB or networking principles.
  • Prematurely recommended buying a new router instead of guiding the customer through accessible self-help steps (e.g., accessing http://192.168.1.1 or http://myrouter.local).
  • Did not acknowledge customer frustration or slow down instruction delivery despite customer expressing confusion.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 95%
Agent did not resolve the issue of the TV not connecting to Wi-Fi; no password recovery or network fix was achieved, and the only resolution offered was purchasing a new router.
R2 Partially Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 85%
Agent suggested checking Wi-Fi password via connected phone, router interface, or reset — valid self-help paths — but did not perform any direct troubleshooting (e.g., verify WAN, check SSID visibility, or test other devices).
R3 Met Correct resolution path conf 90%
Agent correctly identified the device as out-of-warranty and offered appropriate options: paid support, email guidance, or purchasing a new router — aligning with OOW best-effort standard.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Partially Met Technically accurate info conf 80%
Agent asked whether the TV had previously worked and if there was an error message, showing some diagnostic intent, but failed to probe further into network status, ISP, or device-specific symptoms.
T2 Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 90%
Agent appropriately referenced the router web interface and using a connected device to retrieve Wi-Fi password — valid tools for the issue at hand.
T3 Met No misinformation conf 95%
Information provided — OOW status, $15 support option, password recovery methods — was factually accurate and consistent with policy and documentation.
Communication
C1 Partially Met Clear & professional language conf 85%
Agent maintained basic call flow but had long silences, minimal framing, and did not set clear expectations or transitions, reducing control.
C2 Met Confirmed understanding conf 90%
Agent used plain language, avoided jargon, and adapted explanations to the customer’s apparent technical level, confirming understanding through repetition.
Customer Ownership
O1 Met Ownership & empathy conf 95%
Agent owned the case throughout, did not transfer, and offered multiple resolution paths without deflecting responsibility.
O2 Partially Met Proactive follow-through conf 80%
Agent offered options but did not establish a clear next step or timeline (e.g., when email would arrive, duration of paid support), leaving customer uncertain.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
Confirmed first contact — no prior history or handoff occurred.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Met Correct escalation decision conf 90%
Agent correctly decided not to escalate, as the issue (Wi-Fi password retrieval) was within L1 scope and resolvable via self-help or paid support.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 100%
No escalation occurred and none was warranted — customer issue was not complex or urgent enough to require Tier 2.
Customer Experience
X1 Partially Met Customer effort minimised conf 85%
Agent remained polite but did not explicitly acknowledge frustration, apologize, or validate the customer’s difficulty — though tone remained professional.
X2 Partially Met Tone & rapport conf 80%
Agent maintained a consistent pace and repeated key points, but did not fully adapt to customer’s confusion or emotional state (e.g., repeated 'I don’t know' and 'too complicated').
X3 Partially Met Overall experience conf 85%
Agent offered to send email instructions, reducing effort, but still required customer to perform complex steps (router login, reset) without agent-side assistance.

The product that you have here is already out of of warranty. Now, for out of warranty devices, we no longer provide free technical assistance, but if you insist, we can still provide you with one-time phone support, lasting only for 60 minutes, but there would be a fee to that, and that's $15. If you don't want to pay $15, we still have a free option where I can only send you an email on how you can try to check your Wi-Fi pass. That's for email support. Well, which one do you prefer?
