Re: Keep an eye on how long you are kept on hold

What do you mean? The time waiting to first speak to an operator, or the time kept waiting whilst the operator does something for you? Where I work, a wait time of upto 5 minutes is acceptable, though I think the average would be about 3 minutes. We try to minimise the time a customer is kept on hold, but if, say, their printer is faulty and I need to double-check that we maintain that printer, I need to speak to another department, which could take one to two minutes (possibly more). I think 15 seconds is way too short.
