Kundenverlust durch schlechte User Experience bei Schadensabwicklung
€30,000–€80,000 annual churn loss (estimated via: 200–400 equipment claims/year × 15–25% churn rate on claims customers × €150–200 lifetime value per lost customer = €30,000–€80,000. Additional context: wireless carriers average 20–25% annual churn; claims customers experience 35–50% churn if claims process is poor, representing €40,000–€60,000 incremental loss).Search results show that digital-native insurance platforms (Schutzklick, Tarefe, Rahming) emphasize frictionless online claim submission and rapid processing (shipping label generation within hours, device assessment within 3–5 days). Contrast this with traditional wireless carrier claims: customers must call a hotline, navigate IVR menus, speak to underwriters, wait for coverage verification, receive mailed repair authorization, and ship devices to repair centers—all stretching across 7–14 days before repair work begins. During this period, customers lack visibility; many assume claim denial and escalate to social media or switch carriers. ibi systems' platform explicitly offers 'omnichannel experience' and 'real-time claims processing' to reduce friction.
Kapazitätsverlust durch Portierungsverzögerungen
40-80 Stunden/Monat pro Team auf Follow-ups und Resubmissions; €5.000+ opportunity cost bei 10 Ports/MonatNumber portability in Germany involves extensive documentation and carrier coordination, leading to timelines of ~2 weeks for local/national/toll-free (up to 7 weeks national, max 123 days MNP). Rejections due to mismatched details cause rework and capacity bottlenecks.
Verzögerte Schadensersatzabwicklung durch manuelle Prüfprozesse
7–21 day processing delays = €12,000–€35,000 annual loss (estimated via: ~1,500–2,500 claims/year for mid-sized wireless carrier × €8–14 per claim in administrative cost/churn penalty, plus 40–80 hours/month of manual verification labor at €50–70/hour = €2,000–4,500/month = €24,000–54,000/year).Search results show claims platforms (Crawford's 'Simply' service handles claims up to €40,000; Schutzklick, Tarefe, Rahming offer electronics insurance) require multi-step verification: (1) policyholder identity verification, (2) device serial number cross-reference against coverage database, (3) damage assessment categorization (operating error, fire, theft, etc.), (4) repair cost validation from authorized repair networks, (5) settlement authorization and payment processing. Manual handling of steps 2–4 across multiple carrier departments (fraud detection, underwriting, repair network coordination) typically extends claims from target SLA of 14 days to actual 21–35 days. Customers facing delays abandon claims or switch carriers.
Verzögerte Zahlungsverarbeitung und hohe Debitorenlaufzeiten
€500M–1.2B annual working capital impact (estimated 1.5–3% of sector revenue as cash cycle drag); 20–40 day reduction in DSO possible via automation = €100–300M liquidity release per major carrier; manual AR follow-up = 30–60 hours/month per carrierThe German wireless market generated €43.2B in communication services revenue (2025). Major customers include enterprises, government agencies, and public institutions that negotiate extended payment terms (net-60, net-90). Slow activation-to-invoice cycles (2–8 weeks) mean cash inflow is delayed by 3–4 months from service start date. Manual invoice correction loops (customer disputes over billing address, tax ID mismatches, duplicate records) extend DSO (Days Sales Outstanding) to 55–75 days. DATEV integration complexity (mandatory for most German mid-market and enterprise customers) adds 5–15 day manual matching cycles.
