An effective way to **handle customer complaints about deliveries** is to register every complaint as a ticket linked to the order, categorize the cause, assign an owner with a response deadline and record the solution offered to the customer.

In **Jestor**, complaints from **WhatsApp**, email and forms land on one **Kanban** with **SLA** tracking.

## Why do delivery complaints repeat?

Complaints about late, damaged or wrong deliveries are often solved one by one, by whoever answers the phone.

The root cause is never recorded, so the same problems keep happening.

## What problems does complaint handling solve?

- Complaints lost across channels
- Slow or inconsistent answers
- No link between complaint and order
- Root causes never identified
- No data on complaint trends

## How do I handle delivery complaints in Jestor?

1. **Connect WhatsApp and email**, so complaints create tickets automatically.
2. **Link each ticket** to the order, driver and route.
3. **Categorize the cause**: Late, Damaged, Wrong item, Driver behavior, Other.
4. **Set SLA deadlines** for first reply and resolution.
5. **Record the solution** and review a dashboard of causes monthly.

| Cause           | Typical owner       |
| --------------- | ------------------- |
| Late delivery   | Dispatch            |
| Damaged goods   | Warehouse or claims |
| Wrong item      | Warehouse           |
