Answer 1

What Courtney is experiencing in the question is a process called service recovery.

It refers to a paradox where a customer will think highly of a company when the company has fixed the problem that the customer is facing from its service, compared to how the customer would perceive the company when it gives a non-faulty service.

Customer retention is mainly determined by how a company resolves a problem that a customer faces due to a faulty service or product.
