Abstract

A method for using alternative media (sending a letter, a facsimile, an e-mail, placing a telephone call, a short message (SMS)) to establish communication with a party especially when contact with the party must be made as quickly as possible, such as in emergency or possible fraudulent credit card use situations. A first communication is initiated (205) using a first media and if the desired result is not achieved (215) then at least a second communication is initiated (235), preferably using at least one different media. Typically, but not necessarily, the desired result is considered not to have been achieved if contact with the party has not been established within a certain time. A contact strategy is employed to determine the communication methods based upon the type of triggering event and, in some cases, the customer contact preferences. Some types of triggering events are emergency, urgent, routine, and bulk.
