Tesco Bank: Customer Service Transformation

Tesco Bank, a financial services brand, redesigned customer services by using design thinking in the UK.

Executive Summary

Modern Human worked in partnership with Tesco Bank's Design Practice to redesign customer services using design thinking. Most organisations are looking to automate customer service and reduce human contact but Tesco Bank worked with Modern Human to take a different approach. Together, we set out to understand the value that human customer service provides and the points in the customer experience where human contact makes a real difference. Understanding this enabled us to design the right colleague experience for customer service representatives: a colleague experience that empowers them to provide meaningful moments of human interaction.

We’re long-term subscribers to WARC and it’s a tool we use extensively. We use it to source case studies and best practice for the purposes of internal training, as well as for putting persuasive cases to clients. In compiling a recent case for long-term, sustained investment in brand, we were able to support key marketing principles with numerous case studies sourced from WARC. It helped bring what could have been a relatively dry deck to life with recognisable brand successes from across a broad number of categories. It’s incredibly efficient to have such a wealth of insight in one place.
