Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Your specific response to a customer complaint depends on your company's policies for resolving such issues and your assessment of whether the company, the customer, or some third party is at fault. In general, take the following steps: Acknowledge receipt of the customer's claim or complaint, sympathize with the customer's inconvenience or frustration, take (or assign) personal responsibility for setting matters straight, explain precisely how you have resolved, or plan to resolve, the situation, take steps to repair the relationship and follow up to verify that your response was correct.

Answer to Question 2

Explanation: B) Most routine and positive messages fall into six categories: answers to routine requests, grants of claims and requests for adjustment, recommendations, routine informational messages, good-news announcements, and goodwill messages. Granting a claim or request for adjust in good news, the denial is not.
