Module 07: Smart TV Order Placement Procedure with OLD STB

(Customer Owned IPTV STB)
Order placement channel will follow the below steps where customer already has STB with
him/her;
Step 1: Inquire the PSTN on which customer was using IPTV.
Step 2: Check whether customer were using ZTE IPTV or Huawei IPTV. (Screen shots given
below)
If customer was using Huawei IPTV, then place order with New STB and customer will be
charged either in one time or in installment mode.
Page 27 of 75
If IPTV product shows with name “IPTV” only under Installed Services, it means customer
was using Huawei STB and we will not process order with this STB.
If customer was using ZTE IPTV then Shop Executive will follow the next step.
Step 3: Check the PSTN status whether IPTV services were closed on “Customer request” or
“due to non-payment” on previous number.
Order with old ZTE STB will only process, if customer closed IPTV service on old number
on customer request and he had paid all the previous installments.
Page 28 of 75
If customer closed IPTV service on old number “on customer request” and he was in
installment mode then no STB will be associated with him until he pay/finish all his
installments.
If services were closed due to nonpayment, then guide customer to clear their previous
dues first.
Step 4: Create order for IPTV and select the option Customer Owned IPTV STB under the tab
of IPTV Equipment. (Screen Shot given below).
Step 5: Ask the serial number of old ZTE STB and will put into it in Serial Number box in CRM.

Module 09: VAS Bundle

VAS Bundle Charges: Rs. 55/month (Effective from 1st August, 2018)
It is a combination of various VAS like CLI, Three-way Call Conference, Abbreviated Dialing, DND
(Do Not Disturb), Call Waiting, Wakeup, Call Forwarding, Code Barring, Bill Alert, Time Check
etc.
Following will be the dynamics:
Separate package is not required

Any customer subscribing to following integral VAS (one or more combination of them) will
be considered as having VAS Bundle and will be charged for this bundle
Same applies for existing customers.
Business Rules:
Page 35 of 75
✓ If any above combination of VAS is present for a subscriber, he will be charged for Bundle
(Free for new U Freedom and Freedom Plus packages.
✓ For regular “Freedom Package”, as CLI is already included so CLI only customers of
Freedom will not be charged Rs. 55 but if they subscribe to any of the other bundle VAS,
Rs. 55 VAS charges will apply.
✓ Complete VAS Bundle charges will apply on subscription (on subscription of any above
VAS)
✓ Packages where there was already a VAS free, it will remain free and not counted as part
of bundle like Pakistan Package where Conference Call was free but if that customer is
subscribed to additional VAS from bundle like CLI or DND etc. combinations, then VAS
bundle charges will apply.
✓ Applicable on existing and all new customers effective Nov, 2015 billing and onwards.
Note: While guiding customers for VAS Bundle, please guide customers that following free VAS
are also in the list of Bundle which do not have fixed monthly charges but only charged if
customers use them like (which have no subscription/monthly fee and not to be considered as a
combination for effective Rs. 55.)
Examples:
✓ If a Basic Plus Return customer only has CLI, he will be charged for Bundle Rs. 55 as he
will be availing bundle combination.
✓ If a Freedom Package customer only has CLI, he will not be charged for Bundle as CLI
was already free in package.
✓ If a Freedom Package customer only has CLI and used Wake Up, he will not be charged
for Bundle as CLI was already free in package and Wake Up does not have monthly
subscription charges.
✓ If a Freedom Package customer has CLI and subscribed to 1 or more VAS from the 5 VAS
in mentioned Bundle, he will be charged for Bundle like CLI + Three way Conference Call.
✓ In other words, usage charges apply like Wake-Up service usage but no subscription fee
and these do not count as an element to enable VAS bundle.
✓ If someone wants one VAS from the listed 5 integral VAS where his package does not
have that free VAS, he will be charged as per VAS bundle.

corporate/Non-Residential customers where multiple numbers are working, they will be asked to
send us request at care@ptcl.net.pk .
Here we have two different cases regarding ISD activation.
1. ISD Activation (First Time/New Activation)

2. ISD Complaint (Customer was using but it is not activated in CRM)
1: ISD Activation (First Time/New Activation)
a) CCR will probe about dialing destination (where customer wants to dial i.e. China, Canada,
USA etc.) before continuing the call for ISD activation.
1. If customer requires to make dialing to Zone-1 destinations then CCR will guide the
customer that dialing to zone-1 countries can be accessed through STD codes.
2. If customer gets agree CCR will provide Mobile dialing codes to customer and wrap
up the call.
b) If customer still requires ISD activation or wants to dial some other international
destination, follow the process as given here under;
1. CCR will check whether customer is calling from same or other CLI (same CLI : from
same landline or registered cell).
I. If customer calling from same CLI, CCR will follow the next step.
Page 40 of 75
II. If customer calling from other CLI, customer will be asked to dial from same PSTN
or registered cell.
2. CCR will check PSTN status, whether it is a Corporate/Non-Residential or individual
connection
In case of Corporate/Non-Residential connection;
III. CCR will check how many connections are working against NTN/CNIC
IV. If only 1 number is working, CCR will proceed further for ISD activation through
CRM
V. If more than 1 number is working, CCR will politely ask customer to send us a
request for ISD activation/deactivation at care@ptcl.net.pk
VI. If CNIC is missing in CRM, CCR will update it in CRM after verifying from Nadra
and for NTN, customer will be asked to send us an email with NTN scan copy at
care@ptcl.net.pk to update his/her credentials. CCR will make sure to ask
customer to send us NTN copy along with ISD activation request so we could
update it in his/her profile
VII. Request will be entertained at care if customer send us email through email ID
from his/her company’s domain or from email ID that is registered in CRM profile
VIII. If customer send request from any other email ID, care team will dial the same CLI
(Landline/Registered cell) for verification
In case of Individual/Private/Residential connection;
IX. CCR will check the CNIC whether it is updated or not

X. If CNIC is not updated, CCR will update it in CRM after verifying from Nadra
Verification: CCR will take 1 verification for ISD activation
XI. If CCR used ownership in opening greeting then Address/CNIC will be used for
verification and he/she will not ask ownership by customer again
XII. If customer fails to provide verification, CCR will not proceed for ISD activation
XIII. CCR will activate ISD in CRM and will provide codes to customer.
2: ISD Complaint (Customer was using but it is not activated in CRM)

Complaint Registration & Handling Process
Step – 1: CCR will register complaint in Siebel CRM (manually) by following SOPs (Module 15).
Complaint status will be marked as “In Progress” and sub status will be “Assigned” for manual
PSTN complaints only.
Note: Only PSTN dialing and Fax related issues will be catered via manual complaint handling
process in CRM as “In Progress/Assigned” and rest complaint will be handled via SMP.
Step – 2: Complaint will be assigned to Business Operation/Service Desk depending on nature

of complaints.
Step - 3: Complaint will be assigned automatically to BM/ABM of exchange w.r.t. prefixes if related
to line issues.
Step - 4: For port related issues, SRs will be assigned automatically to Service Desk Teams.
Step – 5: After that BM/ABM of concerned exchange will hand over complaints to CPEI/Line Man
and complaint sub-status will be marked as “Handed”.
Step – 6: Concerned CPEI/Line Man will work on that specific complaint and sub-status will be
marks as “Submitted/Pending Verification” (OBD call will be initiated).
Auto Dialing/OBD Rules for closing SR
Service Desk Team:
SD will start working on these complaints and send back to SSC where SSC team will close, re-
open (In Progress State) or re-assign such SRs to region/SD, based on customer’s or system’s
feedback.
Business Team:
Teams will work on these SRs and perform two actions.
Page 51 of 75
1. Run OBD and close SRs on customer’s feedback.

2. Re-open SR and these re-open SRs will be put on OBD/Submitted-NRB Claim by BZ
team.
NRB Team:
SRs will be catered in bulk and IPCC dialer will be run, in this survey customer satisfaction will be
seek. If satisfied then SRs will be closed manually or unsatisfied SR will be re-opened and moved
to the Business team bucket. In case customer is not responding, NRB take system verification
(SMP/Wireline Portal/Motive (NAC) etc.) to close the SR.
Steps of Closing SR in CRM:
1. Customer receives IVR feedback call from 1218 on landline or registered mobile number
about complaint resolution.
2. IVR asks customer to press “1” if issue is resolved, press “2” if issue is still unresolved.
a) If customer presses “1”, SR will be closed with status as “Closed” and sub-status as
“Verified”
b) If customers press “2” then SR will be re-opened with status “In Progress” and sub-
status will be “Customer Re-opened”
3. System will check CDRs for No Dial Tone complaint and SR will be closed without OBD if
CDRs found.
Note: In case of Broadband, Dialer will dial only three times in a day on mobile number
with two hours intervals and in case of PSTN, Dialer will dial 3 times on mobile number
and 3 times on landline in a day with two hours intervals.
4. If customer doesn’t respond the IVR calls then auto SMS will be sent to customer.
a) Dear Customer, Please verify if your Telephone complaint Number "1-341265993319"
is rectified, reply with "Y" if Not-Rectified reply with "N". PTCL Customer Care.
b) If no response to SMS is received by dialer in 2 hours, dialer will continue to make 2nd
and 3rd attempt of Robo calls with an interval of 2 hours.
5. If customer still doesn’t respond to IVR call then system/region will mark the status of SR
as “NRB Claim/Pending Verification” .
