Grand Central

We helped Grand Central to introduce telesales capability in 2018, so that customers who are not comfortable booking online, or who just want some help, can get the tickets they need.

The client

Grand Central is an open access operator - in other words, not supported by the government - that has run services between London Kings Cross and Sunderland since 2007, and between London KIngs Cross and Bradford Interchange since 2010.

The challenge

Grand Central was already selling tickets online and by phone but, after moving to a new provider in 2018, was unable to sell by phone any more. Assertis stepped in, rapidly deploying a white label solution that was already deployed for sister company Chiltern Railways, to get the Grand Central telesales team back up and running.
