What Happens When an SLA is Breached and How to Recover Customer Trust

Oct 1, 2026 By Poonam Lalani In Motadata
What does your organization owe a customer when a priority ticket misses its resolution target by forty minutes? For most service providers and internal service desks, the answer stays unclear until the customer asks for a credit or a manager asks why the monthly SLA report shows a miss. By then, the facts that decide the outcome, such as when the clock started, whether it paused and who was told, are scattered across tickets, emails and chat threads.
